Hello Everyone, I went to my Aquafit class and almost had a pink fit! lol. The teacher was off again but my friend calmly reminded me that we could just swim lengths! Doh! I just never thought of that, and was ready to leave! lol. Well, we spent the hour pushing ourselves and It felt good. I was shattered when I came out the pool and walked the good distance home, In the pouring rain! lol. I wouldn't have minded so much but I had just spent time and money drying my hair!!! lol. Grrr.
I found myself In brand new territory this morning, very, very early. I came face to face with G (my cat) for those of you who don't know me. I beckoned him to come In and luckily noticed that he had a mouse In his mouth so rather than shrieking at him, at that unearthly hour, I opened my bottle of water and threw It over him. Hmmm. Well, I tried, He ran, the water missed him and soaked mister man's bike and so It began, The game of cat and mouse at 4am!
I walked towards him and wanted to check In case the mouse was still alive but my bad boy had other Idea's! Each time I closed In, he picked It up and ran further along the path, dropping It In front of him to lie looking at me. I was In full view of all the neighbourhood houses as I loudly whispered for him to put that down and get In the house! lol. He scrunched up his face looked at his mouse, looked at me and growled really loudly!!! Oh! The cheek of It! I have never seen this dark orange side to him!!! lol.
So, of course, I did the only thing I could do, under the circumstances and I growled back!! lol. I only hope all my neighbours were sound asleep. I told him he was a bad boy. After 3 or 4 steps I looked round and he was creeping behind me only to drop It down when I turned his way and begin to chew! Yuk! Now, I know that cats eat mice etc, It is the equivalent to a tasty steak to them, but I prefer mine to eat their crunchy biccy's, with treat's like ham and tuna! lol. He has the cheek to come In each morning acting like he is starving!!
He Is fast asleep on my bed next to Oscar now. It's no wonder he Is growing on a daily basis!! I had words with him earlier and we have an understanding now!!! lol. I will leave you now with a recent pic of my naughty boy! You'd think that butter wouldn't melt! lol. ;-) Take care, Back Soon. xx

Hello everyone. I am Indeed late posting this entry for Father's Day but Sunday just didn't have enough hours In the day!! lol. I only had 4 hours sleep on Saturday night so by Sunday morning I was a tad wobbly and rather hallucinogenic! lol. I woke to my wee treasure In a whisper asking, If It would be okay to give her dad his gifts and the card now? and I said yes. I got up and wished my mister man a happy day and called my own dad to wish him well before I went shopping.
My mum answered the phone and said my dad was In the car waiting for her to go to shopping to the same place as me! lol. We laughed and she said they would be right there to pick us up and we could all go together. Now when It comes to shopping my dad has to be the most patient man on this earth!. He usually stays In the car and just waits and waits! lol. I think with him being a keen fisherman all throughout his life, this has helped Immensley! lol. We got It all done and took a bit longer than we meant but, my dad just laughed.
I got all the shopping put In the boot and we all went across to their house. It is such a lovely place where they stay and you can really relax. I got all comfy and looked at wedding pictures of my parents while my wee treasure was totally taken aback asking If It was really them? lol. The day turned out to be far more special than ever anticipated and my dad was really happy.
When It comes to music, my dad loves all kinds and one of his all time favourites Is Johnny Cash. I have memories from years back hearing him sing and joining In with songs like, Ring Of Fire and Sunday Morning Coming Down, In the back of the car going away our holiday's and the last time I was over visiting we watched a show and film about him. It was really Interesting.
I will leave you now with my all time favourite....Sunday Morning Coming Down. It Is a song that no matter where It Is played, It will always remind me of my dad. I hope you enjoy It. Take Care, Back Soon. Love Pam xx
Well, I woke up Sunday morning
With no way to hold my head that didn't hurt.
And the beer I had for breakfast wasn't bad,
So I had one more for dessert.
Then I fumbled in my closet through my clothes
And found my cleanest dirty shirt.
Then I washed my face and combed my hair
And stumbled down the stairs to meet the day.
I'd smoked my mind the night before
With cigarettes and songs I'd been picking.
But I lit my first and watched a small kid
Playing with a can that he was kicking.
Then I walked across the street
And caught the Sunday smell of someone frying chicken.
And Lord, it took me back to something that I'd lost
Somewhere, somehow along the way.
On a Sunday morning sidewalk,
I'm wishing, Lord, that I was stoned.
'Cause there's something in a Sunday
That makes a body feel alone.
And there's nothing short a' dying
That's half as lonesome as the sound
Of the sleeping city sidewalk
And Sunday morning coming down.
In the park I saw a daddy
With a laughing little girl that he was swinging.
And I stopped beside a Sunday school
And listened to the songs they were singing.
Then I headed down the street,
And somewhere far away a lonely bell was ringing,
And it echoed through the canyon
Like the disappearing dreams of yesterday.
On a Sunday morning sidewalk,
I'm wishing, Lord, that I was stoned.
'Cause there's something in a Sunday
That makes a body feel alone.
And there's nothing short a' dying
That's half as lonesome as the sound
Of the sleeping city sidewalk
And Sunday morning coming down.
Hello Everyone. I would just like to say thank You so much as, I was given this lovely award by Sherry, who originally received It from her children. Sherry has chosen 3 women that she considers to be strong and In turn wants the recipients to choose 3 more and, so the journey of the award goes, It will soon whip around J-land at the speed of light! lol.
The Complicated Men Award has still to be made!! lol. Only kidding all you lovely fella's. ;-)
Okay on to the hard bit of only choosing 3 wonderful strong women! Phew, Right now, I can name about 30 of you, but to prevent Sherry from chasing me with a large broom, I will stick to just 3.
Betty: Betty reminds me of a very wise owl, she seems to always appear when she Is needed the most, gives wonderful advice and, yet never seems to divulge anything too negative herself, Her faith Is truly Inspiring.
Angel: Angel has been amazing of late, with coping, In her sad quest to get over her mum's death. Her strong will and humour touches and tickles my very soul.
Krissy: Krissy's dedication towards her hubby John all throughout his darkest days of being desperately Ill, and still now to this day, demonstrates a very determined strength In Itself.
All 3 are Indeed a true testimont to the words 'Strong Woman'. Please collect your awards ladies and start your own choices, for 3 remarkably strong ladies. Take care, Back Soon. xx
Psst. Mort. That's 2 normal pics In a row! Shocking I know! lol.
Hello Everyone, I went to see the doctor this morning and came out feeling a lot more positive which is good! lol. My doctor Is such a nice man, He has all the time In the world for his patients and really cares. I am very lucky to have him. Anyway, He is referring me to see a Bowel specialist and hopefully we can get to the bottom (lol. mort..don't spill your tea at that pun!) of what's causing this flaming lump In my side. I got other results when I was there, that It wasn't this disease or that disease, which Is good! lol.
I am not looking forward to getting tubes down my throat or anywhere else for that matter!!! lol. Ohhh I am cringing, but I guess I will just have to be brave.
It Is a nuisance though and the sooner It gets sorted, the better!. I am waiting on a letter to come through for physiotherapy for my lower back aswell now which Is fab!. I have to go back next week and get blood tests done to check my thyroid level, I think It may still be a tad high as I am on the move constantly, (In my quest for the Supermodel figure! Ha!) and I am still carrying extra lard and still far too tired! Well. the old saying eh?..Rome wasn't built In a day! Hmmm. I am being very, very patient! lol.
Being worried around mister man Is always a recipe for disaster... His theory...'Och, stop whinging', 'It will be a bit of my Toad-In-The-Hole that's got stuck!' lol. I do end up In stitches at the way he cheers me up. I think we are all mad In this house! All three of us and the 3 cats! I will freak about It all nearer the time and no doubt have A wee worry part 83! by the time I am finished If I haven't disintegrated by then. lol.
I was disappointed to learn that the swimming was cancelled last night as Brutal Bertha needed the night off! Hmm. Can she not see my lard? lol. Typical eh?, They all let me down last week so I braved It and went myself, this week the flippin teacher absconds! I give up! lol. Anyway I will love you and leave you now With the brilliant Amy Macdonald. Hope you are all well. Take Care, Back Soon. xx

Hello Everyone. I meant to give you all a wee update about my Aqua Aerobics last week or should I say Battered Body with Brutal Bertha Class! lol. It was just my friend and I that went, and I must admit the Teacher wasn't as brutal as normal. Phew! lol. I had my list all sorted for this week and the numbers were up to 6 which Is a fair few people to be nominating their carcuses for a good old fashioned beating! lol.
I got myself all psyched up for the class and sent the texts to arrange the meeting time for everyone and one by one they all cancelled!. The first one being my wee treasure ,who had sore feet, Then one had to work, One had someone visiting, One had an upset stomach and One was drunk! lol. Hmmm. Well! that left me on my little lonesome. Could I do It? Could I really walk all the way there by myself, climb Into a pool with a load of strangers and do a whole hour's class with Brutal Bertha roaring 'Faster'!.
The answer Is Yes. I did It. I am so pleased that I did. I was nervous and jittery and spent the whole time extremely self conscious, but hey, I did It and I feel good. My confidence has had a wee boost. So the next time you are In that kind of situation, tell yourself this, If Pam can do It, so can I. ;-) I will leave you now with this funny wee video. Hope you enjoy It. Take Care, Back Soon. xx
P.S. Thanks Mort for the award. You're a star. ;-) xx

Hello everyone, I wanted to do something to spread a little happiness In J-Land, as there are so many people having a rough time and In need of a boost. After a lot of thought, I remembered how good I felt when I received the 'Nice Matters Award' a few months back and wanted to try something along those lines and that's when I decided to come up with a 'Caring Friend Award.'
Now I must stress at this point that I am not an arty type of person at all. I have merely given It my best shot and, I am, however, rather surprised and pleased with the end result!! lol. I hope you will be too.
This award will be given because so many people do so many wonderful things for each other here In J-Land, There are those that, Always give support In the blink of an eye, Take the time to leave comments, Send personal emails, Offer prayer In troublesome times or Spend all their time taking care of others.
There are 5 awards to choose from. You can decide yourself which one you would like for your sidebar when you are chosen and also how many you would like to pass on to others. I want to give these to so many people and will start the ball rolling with 5 friends I believe could use a little boost.
Please stop by all the above journals and wish them well. Take Care, Back Soon. xx
