I'm so rubbish!

Hey guys,  I'm so rubbish. I just can't quite get on top of things hence not getting blog posts up. I really want to but annoying things like university, work and life keep getting in the way. Well, they're not really annoying things they're all rather important things. Every now and again I think I should give up the blog but can't bring myself to do it and although I'm not entirely sure how many people read it, may be no one?or just a few friends, who knows? 

It's my 3rd Bloggaversary!!!!!

Wow today is 3 years since the start of The Tales of Me!

Blogging from A to Z, R is for Roald Dahl and rubber collections.

R is for Roald Dahl, one of the most popular children's authors and definitely one of my favourite authors.  There is even a Roald Dahl Day which is held every year on September 13th, his actual birthday.    I loved so many if not all of his books.  With his wonderful style of writing, fascinating characters you could warm too and great humour.  There were so many of his books that I loved but here are 6 of my favourite.

Blogging from A to Z, N is for Nan and nick names

*Quick not before we kick into today's post I have had a busy couple of days at work and to add to it sorting out the last details for my friends Hen do on Saturday, so it's been all go go go.  Hence I have been slack with my post reading.  But I will get on it now, I promise.*

N is for Nan.  I have many wonderful memories of my Nan as do all of her grandchildren.  She was the sort of nan that always saw good in you.  I think you could of robbed a bank and she would defend you, saying 'ah leave the poor love alone'.  She was a funny little soul.

Blogging from A to z, M is for Mother

We're on to week 3 of the A to Z challenge. How is everyone finding it?  It definitely is a challenge eh!

Well today, M is for Mother.  Not everyone is blessed with a wonderful Mother but I have been and I will be eternally grateful for that.  Mother's are precious things and we should always treasure them.  I have the most wonderful Mum.  Yes she drives me mad at times, as her I'm sure especially when I was younger, but she is the best mother I could ever wish for.  She will do anything for me and both my parents have always been 100% supportive.  It's got to be said she has always spoilt me.  I've never acted like a spoilt brat (least I don't think so) but I have definitely been spoilt at times.  Not through lots of material things although I've never really gone with out. More for the things my Mum (and Dad) have done and do for me.  My parents live with us and even now she spoils me with the things she does, if she thinks I am tired or warn out, or when my Multiple Sclerosis (MS) plays up (thankfully not much at all since starting my medication), she is there in an instant to help.  She would sacrifice anything for me, so I could be happy.  MS, another word for M.  As an innocent little girl, I would never have never expected to grow up and be diagnosed with a chronic disease!

Here's a picture from our wedding of my lovely Mum:

Blogging from a to Z. L is for love, loss, libraries and lacrosse...

 

L is love, loss, libraries and lacrosse. Now that's an odd selection isn't it?  So what have I got to say about love? Well firstly I being overly generous using the word love, you see I'm talking about my first boyfriend. I was 15 and there was a group of us who use to hang around together.  We'll call said boyfriend Bob for the purpose of this post.  Bob was a sweet lad but I don't think I actually liked him in a boyfriend sense but I kind of wanted a boyfriend as you do so said yes when he asked me out.  It was more a case of a bunch of friends that use to hang out and a few of us had paired up as boyfriends and girlfriends.
