I am an expert in….me!!

I am not an expert on many things, in fact I am actually an expert on very little. Having never lived alone I can't run a house, I'd have no clue how to buy or sell a home and how to go about sorting out and paying for it. I have a pretty poor sense …

Anxiety, me and what it feels like

So today I want to talk about anxiety. I have suffered with anxiety for so long I don't actually remember what life is like without it. Anxiety is one of the reasons too that I've been struggling again to write. I have been really feeling as though people would only read my writing if it …

How a thoughtless act can ruin a trip out

Yet again it's been a long time between blog posts, yet again I feel I have to apologise. I've been getting a lot of writers block recently and my mental health has taken a bit of a nose dive, these two things have clubbed together to make me feel very disillusioned with blogging. I've felt …

Meet my new mascot & the life of a grown up fiddler!!

Firstly this post has been written for a few weeks now, just waiting for photos which I took the other day.  Unfortunately my brain fog, summer holidays and severe writers block has left me with no posts to update you with!!  I'm hoping that I might be able to remedy this over the next few …

When your body is shouting stop, what would you do?

Firstly I yet again have to start with an apology for the lack of posts. I had a couple of posts ready to go but without photo's before I went into hospital, but didn't want to just find photo's to use I wanted to have taken them myself (the found photos weren't quite right for …

Medical overload and operation stress!

Having a chronic illness or long term condition usually comes with the need to have many hospital and doctors appointments. You can sometimes get to know the staff so well that they know its you on the phone before you identify yourself, and treat you like a friend when you walk into the surgery etc. …

Awareness month and What you need to know about my EDS part 2!!

I decided about half way through my previous post that not only was the post getting incredibly long, but it was also going to make everyone switch off!! 31 questions would be fine if they were really short answers, but they aren't! So I apologise for what might be two really long and tedious posts, …

I sometimes wish my brain worked like other people’s!!

Last night I went up to bed. I walked into my room, and despite my mum having spent hours that morning tidying and cleaning my room the first thing I noticed was that my teddy bears had been moved. I looked around, where were they? The first words that came out of my mouth, before …

Too many thoughts and none of them finished!!

So I've been writing a number of posts recently, however it's not that I've got writers block more that I've got too many thoughts that I can't actually finish one off. I've not been out in pretty much 2 weeks which is one of the posts I've got in the pipelines, but it seems that …

The many faces of chronic illness!

A friend of mine noted on her Facebook page today that two friends had asked her about how she was feeling. She gave two different answers because of their relationship to her and the conditions they had. To one friend she had replied that she was "fine" and to another who shared her condition she …
