This week has been completely emotional for so many reasons and I'm feeling a little drained.
I'm not going to ramble on today and I'm just going to share this song with you.
Its by one of my favourite female artists and is about her battle with cancer, and its just so right for this week and the Race For Life I did this week, so here it is.....
Tomorrow for the first time I am doing the Race For Life, to raise money for Cancer Research UK.
My target is £300 and I have raised £200 so far, so I am appealing to your better nature and asking if you can sponsor me, it doesn't have to be a lot £1 will be plenty.
I'm really looking forward to tomorrow, I am told they are very emotional days so I will be taking lots of tissues with me.
Enjoy the rest of the sunshine and I will post pictures on Wednesday.
I am thanking you all in advance.

Yesterday I was having 5 Minutes on twitter Jason Manford the hilarious comedian (he really is), tweeted that he would donate money to the next 10 people's chosen charity.
I tweeted him my link to my Race For Life sponsorship page and then carried on with BG's tea, well imagine my surprise a little time later when I got an email through to say he had sponsored me £50!!
So I would just like to say thank you very much Jason Manford and all the other lovely people that have sponsored me so far, I'm now half way towards my total.
As I was looking for his tweet this morning I came across this post on his blog, it shows all the people he sponsored and what moved him to donate the money.
Yesterday I found my self doing something that I never thought I would do, I signed up for a 5k Race For Life to raise money for Cancer Research UK.
Now its not because I don't do anything for charity that this was a shock, it more the fact that for most people that know me, know that I'm not really one for any type of exercise. I won't be running, there is no way I would be fit enough in time to do it but I will be walking it and BG will be joining me.
I can't take credit for deciding to do this, it was my best friends idea, her and her sister and their daughters will be walking in memory of their father, they ask me to join them and I agreed. One of my sisters wants to do it as well so it will be a family affair.
So on the 29th June 2010 we will be walking 5k in the Peterborough Race For Life, me and my sister are walking in memory of our Grandad who passed away 13 years ago this month.
This is the part when I for your help, I have a sponsorship page where you can, if you like sponsor me. I know times are tough so any small amount will be gratefully received, my target is £300.
Now I'm going to get really cheeky, if you feel like tweeting this, or even writing a post on this that would be fantastic. You can also add a widget to your blog or share on facebook, click here for more information on how to do that.
I would like to say a big thank you in advance for anything that you do to help me with this.
I will be setting up a Race For Life page, which I will update with how I'm doing on targets and to say thank to everyone that helps.
