Christmas is Upon us
Another year finished, where this year has gone, I have no idea. but I love to say i am glad it is nearly over, looking forward to next year,
I am at present waiting to be a Nanny, our Daughter in Law and Son are expecting their now baby, it is 10 days over at the moment so Please God it will arrive soon with no problems, and it is a easy birth.
It WILL BE great CHRISTMAS,with a new little one in the family, Babies are just a miracle and the make all your worries go away...THIS will bring Joy to our house and happiness, for many years to come.WE ARE BLESSED
Christmas is a time to reflect on our life, where she want to be, and to find Peace with the Lord, I was reading something on Facebook the other day and this say was so very true,*if SOME ONE OR SOMETHINS IS WORRYING YOU AND IT IS TAKING YOU AWAY FROM from praying to God LET IT GO,so true,
pray is the first thing that helps me through my daily life, the relation ship with God , and in remembering God is a Friend who will n3ever let you go or desert you, not like some humans who let you down and hurt you, you can always Depend on the Lord, to be there with you in the darkest times.
Enjoy your week

Continuing on my story
I didn't fall for what I thought I would do, I instead just went along and hoped my Dad wouldn't let me go back to Boarding school I was so lonely and lost and hated it
AS we travelled back to Goulbourn my heart sank wanting just to be able to be with my dad but instead back to a cold, clinical boarding school
AS the days went by I settled in a little but used to be in trouble for not making my bed right, or getting smacked for not kneeling right during the Rosary, each night.before we went to bed.some night crying my self to sleep listening to the wind out side which would rattle the windows in our dormitory the hailing wind, the cold and the chill blames which I had.
I remember Friday I liked, as the boarders would get fish cakes and chips for lunch, Saturdays was clean our lockers, wash and do choirs around the balding, in the afternoon get read to go to the movies in the school hall, the nuns would have a lollies stall and we could buy lollies and chips to take to the movies, much to my discuss I would fall asleep before the movie would finish and have to be waken up by one of the older girls to go to back to our room to sleep/ Sundays would be mass in the morning and a nice baked lunch with a ice cream and then a afternoon walk to Rocky hill,. usual it would be a very cold and windy afternoon , always please to get back to the school/
Holidays would come around so very quickly and I would be so happy to be going home on the train for vacations, to be home with my Dad and be happy,.
For the six year I was at Boarding school I didn't like it, to this day I still have night mares about it, and even can smell the wax on the floor, still hear the voices of nuns saying rosary's, and offices. even thought I hated it I felt my only consolation was my faith, by going and attending Mass, confession, which we were made do each sat, to this day I thank God I do have my faith and it must have got me though this part of my life.

a page out of my book which I am writing
I am writing my life story, hoping to release in a book whom people can read,
When I was 9 I as sent to boarding school because my father was not well enough to look after me the Nuns decided to make the decision in sending me to Our Lady of Mercy College at Goulbourn, my father could never say no, so he agreed. only to my shock, a 9 year old send to boarding school., how would I survive this I was dreading it.
My Sister Catherine was married, in January 1968. where I remember I was her flower girl, our family friends Mary Carr was at the wedding and after the wedding we went to a friends place, for the weekend, then I remember being taken into David Jones to get my school uniforms for School, the feeling of disbelief, I didn't feel I could go through this...I remember thinking if I could get out of this I would,
So the day arrived, knowing my life would never be the same again, two nuns sister Jude, and sister alphonfonsus with Mary Carr came to pick me up and we drove to Goulbourn, on the was we stopped for a panic lunch, then they dressed me in my uniform ..all I could think of was I wanted to go back home to my father, home sickness had already settled
When we arrived at the school I was greeted by the reverent Mother, who looked very scary and my heart sank...home sick home sick home sick the tears came, and no one could console me what so ever.. all I could think was why are they doing this.
I had severed a week, and I remember the nun who was in charge of our dormitory came to me and said I was going home for the weekend, to see my father and aunty and Mary Carr, with great excitement I thought to my self, so thinking up in my mind how I was going to carry this out, I thought when I get to my dears aunts I would collapse and they will have to looking into it, then I thought I could run away from home. where they wouldn't find, me.all these things were going through my mind.But when we arrived I didn't do any of it.
More to come ~
