Thats @alexmac06.bsky.social off to school for his very last day after 17 years!😢
Trying to keep it together but an emotional day
Got summer holidays to try & keep him occupied before he starts college in September!! Onwards and upwards

Dropped @alexmac06.bsky.social off at his new college for his taster day…Yes, my boy is GOING TO COLLEGE in September🤩 #MegaProudMum
Thought I’d check out the beach in Morecambe for a bit of🪁flying but sand too wet then the heavens opened…so now trying to dry out with a brew+ sea view!!

19 years, 4 months and counting!!
But even though it’s affecting my health at the moment, I’ll always be there for my boy ❤️ #ProudMum #SENDMum #HesMyHero @alexmac06.bsky.social

I’ve lost count how many times I’ve seen The Alarm/Mike Peters over the years…so sad that his battle against cancer could not be won, he will be greatly missed 💔 Rest easy Mike

After a night of no sleep, we’re waiting on results of a CT scan of his bowels to see what happens next…. 🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞 nothing serious!!! @alexmac06.bsky.social

Happy days … On This Day 2019 ❤️❤️❤️ #WalkingHandInHandWithMyBoy😍
Think it’s time we got a new trike and try & undo the effects of puberty since then which messed with his joints & muscles, made worse by lockdown🤦🏻‍♀️ Growing can be really cruel with cerebral palsy

Looking forward to a trip north for this … an evening of the best music and catching up with lots of people!! Just got to work on keeping young @alexmac06.bsky.social well for respite so I can escape!!! #CantWait #MuchNeededBreak #TheBluebells

Had a trip over to Yorkshire to Skin Magick to get a touch up done on my wrist tattoo & we thought we’d stop off at The Atom Panopticon on the way for a walk…. Bit too wild up there though so didn’t get to stay long 😂 Will definitely have to go back on a better day!

After a panic that me & @alexmac06.bsky.social had Covid again for Christmas, tests done and thankfully we’re all clear *phew*, just feeling a bit ropey!

So we wish everyone a wonderful Christmas and a Happy New Year!! 🎄🎅🏻

A memory popped up on my FB of a 3yr old @alexmac06.bsky.social playing in the snow!!! Life was so much easier with a little Alex! 😂

Been out for a lovely Christmas lunch with my other half while @alexmac06.bsky.social is at school…saves me spending half the day cooking a roast for 2 on Christmas Day!!

After a later than planned but fabulous night in Otley with The Bluebells, @alexmac06.bsky.social has been picked up from respite and now it’s time for a much needed coffee!!!
December 8, 2024 at 4:55 PM
Had a much needed evening of great music and chat from @jamthrawn.bsky.social at @bandonthewall.bsky.social last night…brilliant as ever!!!
Then had to grab the chance of checking out my old office while I was there (as its across the road)!!! #ExpressBuilding #SteamlineModerne

@regaresearch.bsky.social they’re not giving up 🤦🏻‍♀️ … another follow this morning

@regaresearch.bsky.social Hi…both me & my son have apparently won your competition!!! Dodgy fake account is mimicking yours & sending direct messages with dodgy links…I’ve reported but you probably need to too!
November 25, 2024 at 3:10 AM
Happy New Year and Wishing you all health and happiness in 2024!

While the kid’s away for some much needed respite we went for a quick stroll this afternoon…far too hot to go any distance!!! But discovered a new local oasis!
