Lunch with a friend • Summer Holiday Project 2016 #11

-
We have had a really lovely day, we ventured our to our local Brewer's fayre restaurant to have lunch with a friend of mine.

We spent the morning playing playdoh and chilling really befote heading out for 12. I got Lilly to choose her meal, which wasn't the best as she choose something which she decided she didn't like when it came out. Lil's picked tomato pasta with garlic bread, carrot, pepper and cucumber sticks, this was only £3.99

I went for two starters which only cost £2.50 for both, I went for garlic and parsely breaded mushrooms and crispy potato dippers with bacon and cheese. These were really good actually and the portion size was a decent size too.


After Lilly finally finished her pasta I said that she could pick a dessert off of the menu, this is only an extra 75p on top of her meal. Lil's picked mini chocolate mash up, this consisred off 3 marshmallows, 3 strawberries and 3 brownie pieces which a chocolate dip.

At our local restaurant they have a small soft play area which has two slides and plenty of space to crawl and jump around on. Lilly spent most of her time in the soft play area apart from when the food was on the table.


We had a great afternoon and a good catch up too before heading our seperate ways.

    Sounds like fun and such great prices for the food. But such a shame she didn't like her food in the end x

BHP Show 2016 • Lydden Hill

-
Image
The last time I visited the BHP show I was pregnant with Lil's and it was only a one day event. This year I got to take my baby back to see it for herself and enjoy two days there instead, including a COLD night of camping.  The BHP show is (I believe) a yearly event which takes place at Lydden Hill Race Circuit. This is about 1 hour and a half drive from our house so not too far for us to go, Lilly was as good as gold travelling both there and back, but then again she slept the whole way back.  The show wasn't as good as back in 2012 due to the lack of demo's but the Drift Allstars team were amazing and made Lilly scream with joy after a silly 5 minutes of being scared.  On the Sunday we took a look around the pits, that's a big reason why we like Lydden hill is because of the open pits. There were so many nice cars both drift cars and track day cars too. Lilly was very excited especially aboutt the purple one pictured below.  There was a gia...

Abnormal cells • Smear test • My treatment

-

Following in from my The importance of a smear test  I wanted to share what happened next. I believe this is also as inportant as the first part and the more unknown. I recieved a letter about two weeks after my smear saying that I had borderline cell changes and that I would be booked in for a colposcopy. This was horrible, the worst kept going through my mind, the C word.  I then waited a further week for an appointment for the clinic which was 3 weeks wait again, this also made me a little more nervous.  Well today I arrived at the clinic full of butterflies. My name was called and I went into the room. At first a nurse went through what she was going to do and asked a few questions, I was then asked to get ready.  The colposcopy was a little uncomfortable, just like the smear and was a little longer. She then gave me the news that everything looks clear but would take a biopsy to confirm her investigation, this was the worst bit, it felt l...

Being a carer for my parents

-
Image
Both my parents have mobility issues and are bithnow in wheelchairs. Since I can remember my Mum has been in a wheelchair due to have a very worn hip joint which she was born with.  When I was in year 9 my Dad's back started to hurt and progressivly got worse to the point where he struggled to get out of bed. I am now classed as a carer to my mum which is important for me, my mum is very stubborn and sometime I have to have a little nag to get her to do things. I don't see my parents in any other way than just my parents, if that makes sense. My Mum is an amazing person who makss me proud every day. Due her lack of mobility she also has other health problems which she can control with tablets and lifestyle changes.  My Dad is still constantly on the go with his veterans and the local carnival which he does every year using his mobility scooter as his base for his structure. He does feel it after he compeltes things but I think it gives him motivation to...
