    Thursday, April 3, 2008 | A Breaking News story

     Yes, I made it through! I am going to live!
    That awful cold I have had, has lasted 2 weeks, but I am finally on the mend. Of course in typical Nan fashion I overdid it yesterday! When I realized how much time I had lost I went into overdrive; I cleaned house, cooked a full dinner with dessert, changed the sheets, did the laundry and babysat little Miss Kadence, so my daughter could go out in...

    Wednesday, July 2, 2008 | A Breaking News story

    I have finally got back on here.  I had forgotten my password and new ones would not let me in, so I got frustrated and split.  Got an email again from doug and thought I would give it one more shot, it worked!  So, here I am!  but it is late and I need to get to bed.  I will write more possibly tomorrow.  Nite all!

    Friday, November 14, 2008 | A Breaking News story

    Yesterday afternoon was quiet in the shop.  I think the rain must have kept most people away.  Well, at 5pm I decided to pop into the local 'chippy' for some plaice and chips.  On the way to the bus stop afterwards, my walking stick slipped in the rain and I took a hard fall.  It wasn't long before my fingure (left hand) was swelling up.  The next morning I we...
