Summer 2018 nasties

Aunty May
Even being of an agnostic/atheist belief, there is something that being in a church for certain occasions feels a bit different.
Recently (as of August 2018) my Aunty May passed away. Cancer had the final word.
She had been living with the disease for too long, keeping up amazing spirits.
Of course, it is sad. Trying to dig any positives out of any death is a damn hard ask.
That the suffering ended? Possibly; hard to say an outright yes.
That she received a brilliant send-off in church? Again, there is that word possibly.
She was one of my Mam’s sisters. There were three. Aunty Maureen (she was funny!) was taken away surprisingly in the summer. There is now only one sister to Mam. Aunty Ann. One Scottish Aunty for Sharon (my sister) and I.

To the church, and as I’ve said I’m largely a non-believer type (judge if you want) and as such attending church is a rare occasion. There are two reasons for such visits; for me. One sad, one happy.
This instance was another sad occasion. What I w…

'tis the season

Season change
Autumn is in full force. Is it? Well the leaves think so and the cooling weather thinks so; or does it?! Recently there have been temperatures up here (the north east) hitting bloody 20°C! Yes, that is nice in summer months (obviously higher please; and was this year to be frank!) and not one to whinge about any other time; unless.
Unless? Well, you know where I’m going with that. Yip, M bloody S. Temperature can be a nasty (for want of a taboo-free word!) trigger. Can. Not everyone granted, and depending on the type of temperature; e.g. dry or damp/humid. Enough of that; for now.
It is currently October and so far, so good in that I’m having (touch wood) a good month with a few notable ‘good’ days. Those who know what I mean by that, know.
Just a month then? Yes, in that apart from A great week last month, I did not really enjoy September. Change of season? Who knows! Now it’s been and gone - moving on!

What is/are the change/s making a positive change? Well. Thinking of the…

Positive Alpha Affirmations

Positive Affirmations goes Alpha; apparently

Second blog within a week? Something good must have happened right? I would not be writing this if not so!
I do not want or seem to be repeating myself, like I may have said already, but certain things I do are done regularly with regular positive outcomes.
This blog though covers different efforts!
1. Meeting
Sound inspiring? Gets worse! No. Let me continue.
As part of my world now has me functioning as a willing volunteer within the MS world – literally! – due to no longer being a member of the workforce (GRRRRRRR), I fulfil quite a few roles instead. #cantdonowt.
As one of these roles – happily being part of the Multiple Sclerosis Society’s North Tyneside Group – I am the Health and Safety (h&s) volunteer.

Love (ha) or hate, I do have some history adhering to strict health and safety protocol of such, in the past. Power stations. Can’t mess around there!

The meeting! Without delving into what I can’t anyway, an audit had to be done. Are safe …
