Mini-mise Your Worries Have Maximum Fun

With summer the summer months fast approaching, finally, there will be lots of opportunities for weekends away.  Escaping from every day life certainly helps to change our outlook.

Thrive

I have tried all sorts of different techniques that do work for calming a panic attack but I sometimes have a tendency to forget some of them.  I always thought it would be great to have an app with me that had the best techniques all at my fingertips.  Thanks to Thrive, I now have what I wanted.

How Shane Filan Helped Me.

On March 29th I was sitting in my bedroom getting ready to head to Glasgow. The nerves had kicked in and I was hoping that it would all calm down as I didn't want my big night ruined.  I kept my focus on the main goal and that was to see my idol in concert.

Petition Update

This is just a quick update today.  As you all know I am putting together a petition that will be submitted to the Scottish Parliament in May.  The Cumbernauld News published the article in yesterday's edition and today it also went onto their website.  As promised here is the link to the article.

I would like to thank everyone for their continued support and I will keep you updated on any further developments.

The Next Big Step

The above picture was taken July 2013, the day one of my dreams came true, I met my idol Shane Filan. I love his voice and he is such a genuinely lovely down to earth guy. Yes I was realllyyy nervous meeting him for the first time but it was totally worth the wait. Fast forward to today and here I am sitting writing this post with tears in my eyes, yet again filled with nerves.

My Petition To The Scottish Parliament.

I thought it was time for an update on what I had been up to recently.  Last week we went to the Model Rail Exhibition at the Glasgow SECC.  I had won tickets for the event and along with that I won a limited edition "The Railway Children" train set.  Sadly the next day we all ended up with a horrible tummy bug. Ahh the joys of having children at school and nursery, they bring home all the germs!  There is one big step I have taken and that is the petition I plan on submitting to the Scottish Parliament in May.

Osteoarthritis (OA) affects millions of people in the UK, with one third of the population aged over 45 having sought treatment for the condition. The prevalence of OA is also thought to be on the rise, and Arthritis Research UK estimate that by 2035, 8.3 million people in the UK could have OA of the knee- one of the most commonly affected joints.
