Could only happen to us ... well maybe not rofl

Now there's no doubting that my two yr old son keeps us busy, he is shall we say, a bit of a monkey and if there is trouble to be found, he will be in the middle of it. If there is danger, he finds it ... you get the picture he he

Well it would seem he is not the only one, should we ever fly anywhere this is just the sort of thing that would happen to us!!!


Yes folks, a family flying from Vancouver to Winnipeg, did not leave their luggage, tickets or passports at the departure gate, they left their 23 month old son!! In the rush to repack their luggage, and get on board the flight in time, the family became separated, and both sides of the family assumed the child was with the other ..... until a message reached them sometime along the journey asking if the toddler just discovered by security at the airport was theirs!!

Before anyone jumps on me, yes I know how much danger the poor, little chap was in, can totally see how lucky he was to be found by security and kept safe until his dad got back to collect him but I can also see the very funny side, partly maybe because this is exactly the sort of thing that could happen to almost anyone, certainly to a child like mine, who however many precautions you take, always finds himself some sort of mischief.

Glad he was reunited safely with his family, and hope they can build a happy and safe new life for themselves in Canada. Maybe this will spur on the airline industry to issue some sort of boarding pass for babies as well .... we will see!!!

Musical Monday

With the weather as beautiful as it is at the moment, what else could possibly fit the bill but ....

How redneck are you ?

You Are 10% Redneck

I'll slap you so hard, your clothes will be outta style. You ain't no redneck - you're all Yankee!

How Redneck Are You?

How open minded are you ?

You Are 88% Open Minded

You are so open minded that your brain may have fallen out! Well, not really. But you may be confused on where you stand. You don't have a judgmental bone in your body, and you're very accepting. You enjoy the best of every life philosophy, even if you sometimes contradict yourself.

How Open Minded Are You?

Physio

Phone call yesterday afternoon from Physio dept, after just 3 months waiting I got an appointment YAY, for today lol.

Well it went really well, she was shocked at just how hypermobile my knee is, but came up with some exercises that shouyld help. She has also referred me to the hydrotherapoy pool as she thinks the warmth wioll help , will also help me exercise safely, and as they have nurses etc non duty they can also cope with the ARVC and implications around that.

Only bummer, I have to pay!! Although yopu can only use the pool with referral from a doctor or therapist, they still charge you. Still its not bankruptingly expensive so all good :D

was thinking of organising a session, or seeing if I could organise a session once a week or once a fortnight for heart kids. For various reasons thats gone out of the window but sure I will think of something else rofl... watch this space

Disclaimer

Due to incidents where two seperate people have read something on this blog and assumed(wrongly) that I am talking about them or their website, I would like to state once and for all, I do not read just one website. I read lots. In my normal day I visit at least a dozen. Included in those are some of the boards listed in the sidebar. Some you will be able to read without registering, some you won't. In addition I also read a few sites which are not listed below.

When I talk about something on here, do not automatically assume I am talking about the website you know me from. Many times, especially where trolls are concerned, I see the same thing happening on many different boards. Trolls often follow a similar pattern attention seeking gimps that they are!!

If I talk about something or someone thats annoyed me, it might NOT be you!!! (Unless of course you are a troll in which case IT IS YOU hehe)

Please do not get paranoid about anything you read on here, I am paranoid enough for the whole country without you joining in !!!

Give up ......

For something approaching two weeks now have been unable to log in to a particular website. Have tried everything to no avail. Twenty four hours ago a friend posted a message on my behalf, to which only a couple of people bothered to reply. I know that people have been pm'ing me, but I cannot reply to them. So now there are people I have been supporting, quietly not shouting about it, who still need support, who must think I am a right bag for not replying. It doesn't matter what they think of me, to be honest its irrelevant now, but the fact they are not getting support when they need it is breaking my heart tonight, have just sat here and cried and cried with frustration. I give up. I hope those people get the messages left on my behalf, that they contact me again, or if they don't that someone there will help them. Please. Whatever I have done to warrant me not being able to log in, please please don't let people in need suffer as a result.

Me, I give up. I won't stop offering my support, just not there :(

Edited to add: I do not blame anyone for this they are all busy people. The fact that no one except the few I support by pm, have even noticed I have not been around, well says it all really. I am just me. Not important. I just posted this so that people from there, who 'might' have missed me, know that I am not ignoring them, that I have not forgotten them, that I do still care, just cannot help this situation anymore ...Sorry guys. Feel free to contact me via here or facebook if you want xxx

If you want to know the other reason I have been desperate to get back on there, look on the Haven if you are a member. Its bad news, sorry

Musical Monday

As its Beltane it had to be a sunny one :D

Cutey pie ?????

Everyone tells me what a sweet and innocent little boy I have... hmmm look at this pic and see what you think then

Oh the joys of a CHD child!!

Why when we have a car and cash to spare and its a weekday does Skye never need hospital or doctors? Yet the moment we have no car, no ready cash, and its a long bank holiday she needs hospital twice in one weekend? She had a croup/asthma attack Friday night and wound up in hossy for nebuliser, now its sunday and she runs down the road, trips and lands .... yep you guessed it flat on her face!! Not one to do things by halves or to cast any doubt, she put her teeth through her top lip, spilt the gum slightly and bit her tongue, not to mention the graze under her nose . Rang everyone I knew with a car but nobody is around, so rang the out of hours and they thank goodness know her well enough, so faxed a prescription to the chemists 10 minutes walk from us! By the time we toddled there, the AB's were ready, they even gave me a free syringe . A Dora choccy egg helped ease the pain too!!

Little monkey, she always seems to do these things on the long weekends!!!

Madeleine ... a few thoughts

I have kept fairly quiet on the subject of Madeleine McCann, there has been so much published that to be honest theres been no point, but reading the news today made me go 'huh'

In one report dated Saurday, the McCanns are reported as asking everyone to pray for Madeleine

Yet in a second report, dated Sunday, the McCanns are reported as saying that they hope the attention will wane after Madeleines birthday on May 12.

Firstly, the McCanns are the ones who courted all the attention in the first place, they are famous for saying that they will never let the attention on the case fade. So sorry guys but that means you get your fair share of the attention too. Why court attention one day, then the very next day say they don't want it? Doesn't make sense to me whatsoever.

I am not getting into the debate on here, of who has done what to addy. My opinions on the subject are mine and I will share them only with a few close friends. But come on guys, you have been slated enough, make your minds up what you want and stick with it. To do other wise just brings down even more villification upon you.
