What are you waiting for?? go read them NAO!!!!

Sometimes

I worry about myself, one minute i'm happy and the next i'm not - i'm fed up of being on a roller coaster, I want a straight run with no dips or curves. I want my get up and go to stay not get up and fuck off as it always seems to. Apathy is shite. If I ruled the world I would want world peace, end to hunger for all and for apathy and cannot be arsedness to be banned

I want a sleep, I want to sit on my bum and eat biscuits. I want to be better. I want to be on an even keel.

Mucho Fun

Chuffing piggin hormones - they iz bastards

today i feel like this

catch part 1

After reading a blog about finger porn and peen (yes I am a perve get over it!) I found this and it made me laugh

I am an Arse - FACT!!

I am a diabetic, Harry's pregnancy knackered my thyroid and Phoebe's pregnancy knackered my pancreas  - Thanks kids, Love you too!!

I should be looking after myself, I did this brilliantly when I was pregnant so why am I finding it so hard to do now? My blood sugars have risen by 1.4mmol in six months, my weight has gone back to what it was over 18 months ago, The nurse could even tell that I had been drinking more *blush* damn you liver way to keep my secrets!!

So I am on a deadline - I have 3 months ( until april) to get my weight, sugars down and to also rein in my drinking. I would just like to say - I dont personally think I drink a lot, I dont need a drink to get out of bed and I dont need one to go to sleep - but I suppose me drinking wont exactly be helping my liver and pancreas, so I will have to drink once in a blue moon, rather than every time I see the moon LOL

So if you see me with a cake, biscuit, booze or anything that should only be consumed in moderation - please give me a kick up the arse!

Big Post reminder / begging blog

Please support the big post - you guys have already read my letter

So please take 2 minutes to write to Mr Cameron and tell him your experiences of Surestart - If you have no personal experience of Surestart, I am sure you will know of someone who has.

The Big Post is scheduled to take place on the 10th of Feb, if we all post our letters on that day - then hopefully thousands of letters will arrive at the same time.

Please put SAVE SURESTART on the back of your letter and send it to MR Cameron, 10 Downing Street, London, SW1A 2AA.

Lets stop the government riding roughshod over families - lets hear it for family power!

Last day Tomorrow

Yep - as of 12.30 tomorrow dinnertime, I will once again be unemployed.

No they havent sacked me you cheeky buggers!

Tax credits and general grown up sucky stuff have conspired against me and I have to leave my job. I am gutted - truly. Now I know I didnt get off to the best start *cough* understatement *cough* but I have grown to love the job and my charges (I still refuse to use the term client). I am really going to miss these guys and I would definately do care work again.

I had in my mind an idea of what care work was - all poo and wee and other smelly stuff, but I totally have revised my opinion, yes there are some body fluids but not a lot, sometimes its just making some one a cuppa and have a chat with them. It really is a worthwhile job, and i'm gonna miss it.

You HAVE to read this

Note to self

This blog is meant to be fun - STOP PRESSURING YOURSELF YOU SILLY MOO!!

Remember what you said at the start of the project - it wont always be epic bloggage, maybe a word or just a photo

So Sara Louise Atkin get a fucking grip and enjoy blogging

love

Me X

Confidence is a cruel mistress

So here is my plan - apply to uni, hopefully go to uni and get a degree in willy and foof related things and then teach or at least work with kids / young adults - I love this plan.

So WHY oh chuffing WHY am I having a wobble of epic proportions about it? I had a dream sequence type thingy. I was sat in a class room and I was the oldest one there, I was looking down on myself watching as they were all laughing at me.

When I woke up I was quite prepared to pull my application. I am a tit of epic proportions. Be prepared to talk me out of things peeps, I may need talking down at some point.

Ramming it down peoples throats ( Religion and politics mentioned)

There are things I prefer not to discuss with people - Politics and Religion.

These ALWAYS lead to arguements ( just look around the world). I will however listen to peoples opinions as to why they have the beliefs they do, as I always find in interesting to compare them to my own.

What I intensely dislike is people trying to convert me, who think I am a lesser person because my beliefs are different to theirs. It irks me greatly - if I can respect your belief system, please extend me the good grace and respect mine.

I will publically state mine.

I whole heartedly believe that Jesus existed, I think he set a good example on how to live your life and be kind and generous to others. Wether he is the son of God, I dont know.

I believe in spirits and that the soul goes on. The Spiritualists national union several principles speaks to me.

http://www.snu.org.uk/

The Fatherhood of God.
The Brotherhood of Man.
The Communion of Spirits and the Ministry of Angels.
The Continuous Existence of the human soul.
Personal Responsibility.
Compensation and Retribution hereafter for all the good and evil deeds done on earth.
Eternal Progress open to every human soul.

I have had many readings with psychics and they have always been ridiculously accurate - I have felt and seen things that back up this.

I'm not sure there is a higher power who created us all. The Big Bang theory and Evolution makes far more sense. Was the idea of God used to explain things that we now know?? Dinosaurs exisited but they are not in the good book!

The main point of this blog is this: Twice this week I have been accosted -  Jehovahs witnesses on my doorstep and chased ( yes chased) to my car by a trio of Latter Day Saints - I jest ye not! Even after I was terribly polite and explained my parking was nearly up she still followed me - Dog with a bone much? In the end up I shouted at them, to which they looked like I had just kicked a puppy, which made me feel guilty. I wasnt rude, I just told them in a loud voice that I was sorry but I wasn't interested and no I didnt know anyone else who would be interested in talking to them.

Seriously peeps in ALL walks of life NO means NO.

Come sit with me and lets have a brew and some cake and have a chat about politics, life, love and religion, share opinions and learn from them, but please do not try to convert me or chase me down the street

Thanks

Love

Me XXX

SureStart (Friday catch-up)

I love SureStart so f*cking much. These ladies have kept me sane, made me laugh and picked me up off the floor while I was weeping.

In the run up to the general election David Cameron promised us that Childrens Services such as Sure Start would be untouched. Fast forward to January 2011 and Mr Cameron and the coalition government are cutting funding by 60%. My local centre is running on a stretched staff and these staff members are also supporting satelite centres in the local area, they cannot afford to have any further cuts.

My Friend Lucy is rallying the troops and is arranging for as many people as possible to write letters to 10 Downing Street. This is mine :

16^th January 2011

Dear Mr Cameron,

I am writing to you to implore you to reverse your decision to cut Sure Start funding by 60%.

My local Sure Start: Lune Park in Lancaster is already stretched with the demand for their services and the staff are also supporting other local centres in Halton, Galgate and Carnforth.

Sure Start is a vital resource for parents and you promised us in your election manifesto that you would leave Sure Start alone and that parents on lower incomes would benefit from a conservative government. On these two areas alone you have failed parents BADLY.

Please allow me to share my experiences of Sure Start and how they have helped us as a family:

I am a married mum of three and I have used Sure Start since the birth of my first child Abigail in December 2002. It wasn't until the birth of my second child Harry in February 2005 that I came to truly rely on Sure Start.

After Harry's birth I quickly succumbed to post natal depression, resulting in suicidal thoughts. Jan an outreach worker from Sure Start was assigned to our family and she encouraged me to go to groups. Jan even went as far as arranging childcare for Abigail and Harry so I could attend a special group called 'Life after Birth' which was a support group for other mums who were suffering the same as me. This proved to be a great help in my recovery as this support made me realise that I wasn't alone nor was I as worthless as I felt.

Sure Start also arranged for me to attend several parenting courses, all of which gave me insight and strategies for dealing with two small children while suffering with PND.

Unfortunately Harry's behaviour has always been troublesome and erratic. We suspected that Harry may have had an autistic spectrum disorder as well as a speech delay. On speaking to Liz Grice who was helping at Harry with speech and language at Sure Start's chatter-play group. She immediately referred us to Christine Branscombe and Trisha Wilkinson.

Working together, these ladies helped us by getting Harry referred to our local child development centre. These ladies have also supported both Harry and I in his integration in to infant school.

Even though Harry is now in school. We are still being supported by another Sure Start group called AOK. This club is run by Trisha and parents of children with additional needs. These ladies and gentlemen have quite simply saved my life and my sanity. Without Sure Start support I would have nothing. Most recently Sure Start have placed me on another course for supporting my family as following the birth of my third child Phoebe, I am once again suffering with post natal depression.

Please do not cut the funding for Sure Start. Sure Start is vital for parents and children alike. Please show us that you are a man of integrity and a man that will honour his promises and leave Sure Start alone.

So far under the coalition government we are struggling for money. We were happier under the Labour government. Please help families like us Mr Cameron. Please don't condemn us by taking away our support structures as well.

Please help us by writing one too - let the PM know if Sure Start have helped you.

I would like to publically thank - Trisha, Liz, Paula, Carole, Jan, Carla, Christine, Dawn and others at Lune Park who have supported me and helped me over the past few years. I am fairly certain I wouldnt be as balanced (as prozac and wine allows) as I am now.

I owe these ladies so much, so I will start with a letter.

Please Help
