2 weeks to go

Hi all 

2 weeks today I will be huffing and puffing after lugging all the boxes. I cant wait not for the hard work but for the new home. New home new start hopefully things can start sorting themselves. 

Was in court Thursday for my ESA and had a panic attack thought i was getting somewhere but its clear I still need some work to get back tot he old me. Stupid depression and anxiety really does get to you at times. I have come a long way but no where near the person I used to be. 

ESA appeal ruled in my favour so I have a goal of 18 months to work on myself and get back to a newer me. 
Hoping that the new house is a start. 

Spk to you all soon x

Website is on hold until september and my crafting just too busy to get it out and cant concentrate. Kids on half term. moving in 3 weeks. Need to take a breather.

Am really excited to be moving we are down sizing our garden, as we are corner and its far to big and very un secure with 3 kids one of which is autistic and very trusting. And my 3 year old is just a little rascal.

So much to do.

On the plus side we had a beautiful day. Me and hubby 3 little munchkins father in law and sis in law and her hubby in the garden having a good chin wag.

My New Animal Addition

Evening all,

My hubby wanted a chameleon for christmas, we already have 2 bearded dragons who are lovely and docile and love the kids. So I brought him a 6 month old Yemen Chameleon female,

Here she is sitting on hubby head, she loves hair for some reason ....

She is settled in well, has a nice 4ft home with lots of branches and plants.

My Bearded Dragon female had 13 eggs and we have 4 babies left to go to homes. 

2 are off 2mrw and the other 2 will be off to homes soon just waiting for them to confirm when they want them.

Was an unexpected time for us as she was pregnant when we got her, found out after we had her for 3 weeks and she started acting perculiar, was a great experience watching her lay her eggs, We incubated in home made incubator and all 13 eggs hatched we raised the babies and have homes for all of them with enquiries that we have had to turn away. Also enquiries from pet shop so may look at breeding her next year.

I will post pics of my Beardies tomorrow.

Night all Lil Fairy off for the night x
