There's Always Light at the End of the Tunnel

It hard to believe how fast the time goes by when you lose someone close to you. Six years is a long time but it all went by so fast, it still feels like only yesterday when I watched God take my mother away from us. I guess when my mam died it was my first real experience with death, I was only a baby when my granny died so I didn’t know her but I did grow up hearing stores about her and visiting her grave I might not have got a chance to know her or get close to her but I feel that in some ways I did know her and I was close to her. Today is my mam’s 6 year anniversary and I’m still trying to come to terms with how long it has been. My mam died after she lost the battle with lung cancer. She was a strong and brave person and she never let being sick get the better of her she fought until the very last moment. She always had a smile on her face no matter what was happening. Whenever I would go into the hospital to see her while she was sick that was the one thing I would look forward...

This photo is from a beach down in Wexford that me and the girls went to last year to visit Louise and Aoife while they were staying in their mobile homes for the summer. Me and Kellie are heading to Wexford to see Aoife, Louise,Ashling, Emer and were going to meet new Wexford people as the are describe to us on Monday and staying the night.

Sorry it’s been a little while since I last updated my blog. I have been finding it hard to think of things to write about. It was until last night I had nothing at all to write about and no inspiration either until Aisling gave me a list of different things that I could write about. After going through the list I found something that I wanted to write about but it wasn’t linked directly to one of the topics that I was given. What I am going to write about in this post I guess is something that most people know about but nobody talks about it. In this blog post I am going to write about self-harm. As I was writing this blog post I was worried about publishing it to be honest and I don’t really know why. I think it was because I was scared of what people might think and if it might cause people to get upset. I don’t mean for this to be triggering to anybody and I don’t mean for this to upset anybody. Self harming is the deliberate harm to you. This can be done in many different way...

This photos is from Kellie's birthday party, I was meant to make sure that Mandy didnt fall down the slide...... but then I let go of her foot.... Sorry Mandy :)

Me and my Granddad.

This photo was taken at the Irish dancing all Ireland's last weekend. This was a group who went from Flood school and two of the members from the group are friends of mine. All the members of the group who competed did very well and I hear that all their hard work and hours of training paid off in the end when their show dance which was Alice in Wonderland was award second prize. Many of the dances were also awarded individual prizes. Well done to all of the dancers.

Lilo and her brother Mossy.... :)

It’s hard to believe that I have been bogging for the past 11 months. It’s not July and I started blogging last September. This all started as me blogging about what I did in T.Y I never thought my blog would become more than anything other than a reflection of T.Y. In the beginning I never thought I would take to blogging like I have done, at first I thought that it was weird kind of like I was talking to myself because I didn’t think that people would read my blog. It’s hard to believe that I have blogged so much during the past 11 months this is going to be my 364 th post. And when my blog reached 10,000 age views I was very amazed and surprised that I had reached 10,000 page views. Blogging has done a lot for me, it lets me share my experiences and give my opinions on things, it’s a great reflection tool, and I think that it has in some ways helped me to improve my English. But it has not helped me to improve my spelling no matter how many times I spell check a post there is alwa...
