lovely holiday

well im home again after a lovely holiday.


the british weather certainly looked after us withnearly unbroken sunshine and HOT every day. i managed to bury a few demons and swim and sunbathe on the beach, a bit nervous at first but in the end you realise that nobody really cares and you are no different from any body else. the comfizz waist bands with black swim shorts are great even though when wet the bag popped out now and again but it only added to the fun. i did watch what i was eating and took a "what goes in must come out" attitude while on the beach but thats a small price topay to be running and laughing around with my grandughter on the beach. still have another week off work and im looking at the back garden thinking how am i gonna attack that grass.


thank you all again for your support during my BAD time gone.


what a difference a week makes

Hi, Rosiesmom here. It sounds like you had a great holiday. It helps to stoke the fire of self confidence. If I might ask do you live in Newcastle. I thought with your name that perhaps you line in or around the area. I just spent some time in Durham my sister lives in Penshaw. Good luck with the future testing and care.
