hello everyone!!

Hello again everyone.
Thank you for your lovely comments on my last post. Sports day was rained off so it's now on monday. I also have the school play to go and see tomo eve, so that'll be lovely.
I'm sleeping a lot and resting most of the other time. It's so dull and I have so much I want to do, it does get frustrating, but I remind myself there are others worse off.
My family are a great support and my wheelchair is coming in handy to at least get me out for some fresh air.

My niece is getting a new puppy!! He is only 2 weeks old but she already adores him. She has a countdown chart for when she can have him home!

here are a few pics for you to awwww over! This is Coda. (he is named after Koda from brother bear and I spelt it with a K, but Emily is dyslexic and she got upset when she thought she'd spelt it wrong with a C, so we said it can be either way, so she chose it to be with a C). He was just less than 2 weeks old here. Doesn't he look like a baby polar bear!! 

This is his little sister and brother: The bigger brown one is the other boy. I so so wish I was well enough to have him!! The little girl is being kept by the owner of the mummy. 

Here is my gorgeous girl with her baby. She just adores animals, particularly doggies, so she is just so happy that she has a 3rd doggie to come! 

Here are more puppy pics!!:

Aren't they adorable!!! I'm hoping to go and see them again on the weekend.

I did manage to get out to the park for a little while with my sis, niece, our friend (who is with our uncle) and our little cousins. It was so lovely. We just rested and relaxed on a blanket while the kids ran around like mad with my doggie.

Here is my cute little cousin and me:

His big sister:

and my fave pic of the day:

anyway, I'd be go and have a rest infront of the tv, ready for the apprentice.

I will put some crafty pics up again as soon as I'm well enough to make some again. I wish you all a good weekend x xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

quick update

Hello everyone. 


I wanted to let you know that I am still around! I've been having some bad days with the ME and fibromyalgia so haven't been well enough to craft or blog. So i'm sorry i've not been upto commenting on blogs.

I hope you are all as well as possible and I'll try to be back soon. I still have some cards to show from a few weeks back.

Enjoy the weekend everyone and that upcoming sunny weather next week!!! 


Edited to add that i've just found out that I have won more candy!!! I'm just overwhelmed with excitement and want to cry! Thank you so much to Donna for the chance to win lovely stuff.

It's such a nice treat after a bad few weeks and a very disappointing physio appointment yesterday at the hospital. I went for the fibromyalgia, after being referred by the Dr, but it was pretty pointless as there isn't much they can do. They can refer me to the fibro service in Brighton, but thats just a group session learning about pacing and pain relief, which i've done years ago for the ME. I'm barely leaving the house lately, so how i'm supposed to get to Brighton once a week, is beyond me.

I was told I have some hyper mobility too, in my knees and arms, which is worsening the pain I'm having.
So really I just feel like the NHS can barely offer me anything and I've just got to cope for however many more years with 2 chronic conditions with no cure.

I always keep in mind that there are so many people suffering so much worse than me, so I will treasure every good moment I have and today, finding out i've won some candy, has certainly made me smile today.

I'm off to stay with my sis for some TLC for a few days and to see my niece's sports day, so when I come home I will try to blog again, with some cards and will have a look round at what you have all been making and doing.

Lots of love x x x
