Good News At Last!!!!!!!!!

Well what a turn around yesterday was, from a morning where I thought nowt else could go wrong it turned around and everything went right!!!
First off I sent an email to the blue badge people yesterday in hope, lol and we have been accepted, all I have to do is send two pics of El off and £2. The woman that called was fab, really sympathetic and knew all about El from SS's case notes and said we have 100% been accepted, wooohoooo. Just got to do the finer details of it to get it in our car now.
Then I had a text to say Cheryl's c section went well and that Eleri Rebecca-Rose Kathleen has been born at:11.22 am and mum, baby and dad were doing well. CONGRATS to both Cheryl and Mark and massive cuddles to Eleri, Mim and Rhi!!!!! And yep I've seen the pic's she's stunning, a real beauty another precious rose in the family, Mark your gonna need massive muscles to fight off all the boys knocking your front door for them when their older. lol.
Also had call from El's school wanting me to send some of my hand made bags in for the kids, so sent them in today and had another call saying their all placing orders, teachers, kids, council staff, everyone there wants one, wooohooo. It's strange though showing someone your work, I was so embarrassed sending my things in, things I'd made, it took me ages to pick samples, lol. And then for them to phone saying they loved them and the kids in school were going crazy about them and the staff were like wild things going through the designs, I was like OMFG!!!!! lol. Well work is work and money is money and for a thanks to them, cos it's El's teachers that started this I've offered my sewing hands to help in class, making aprons, dressing up things and curtains and bits for the class.
Then my mum phoned with brill news, which I can't go into yet cos we're waiting on one thing to happen, don't want to jinx ourselves, but lets just say we're ecstatic, we really are. Justice is being done at last!!! Then a whole new chapter or should that be saga will begin, lol.
I also became a committee member for our local PALS this week, minimum term is 3 years so here I go, lol. I'm now busily coming up with fund raising ideas and trying to find and organising grants etc as well as looking for donations for things we need to get going, we have a new permanent base to call home and desperately need equipment for the office and play areas as well as gardens, not to mention man power!!!
So all in all yesterday wasn't too bad, though my mind is made up I've left said forum and you know what they haven't even noticed, lol, that's how much I'm missed. With friends like that who needs enemies right!!
