Lovely weather

Hi everyone

Wow what goregous weather we are having this weekend.

I have been so busy making sockmonkeys. I'm loving it and am getting quite a few orders :o)

I attended a Introd pain management programme day last week. I have mixed views on it. It was great to talk to other people in the same boat as myself and to realise that what I feel/think isn't wrong.
If I was able to attend the full programme I think it would have been worth it but seeing how they only hold it on 2 of the days which I work then I found the day could have been more helpful to someone who would beable to attend the programme.

The session where they explained pain was abit of a joke as we were all there due to suffering chronic pain and had already been through the system. Alot of people found that a waste of time also they seem to think that no-one works... their ideas may have been a huge help if I didn't work and could stop whatever I was doing at the drop of a hat and rest but unfortunately thats not how life works.

I have been given an appointment for a tens fitting which is fab as my accupunture as finished for the time being so I have taken several steps back on this battle to get my pain under control.

Things have been abit tough recently but we cope because we have no choice. I do find it abit of a piss take when other people seem to think they have the right to demand our time and also there are people out there who seem to enjoy laughing at other people misfortune. I do believe in Karma tho so they will get theirs one day. I don't feel it is acceptable to enjoy others misery it just shows what people are really like. 
I also find it unacceptable when people deliberately shit stir altho they know what trouble I have had with these people before. I try to keep myself to myself and just concentrate on my family & true friends but some people are determined to cause trouble. I guess they are just sad people with no real life of their own.I know I'm not the only person to experience this so too all of you going through the same thing keep your chin up and try not to let it get to you x


Ok rant over lol back to good stuff...
I have started my diet well rather just eating healthy and going back to the gym as soon as possible. I am at my biggest clotheswise and have a wardrobe full of clothes too small. I need to get back in these clothes lol 
I will keep you updated with my weight battle yyaayy


I have actually started baking scones too (not good for my diet) and they taste delish lol Need to get my ww books out for the cake recipes so I can do some low fat ones.


Well off to enjoy the sun whilst its here :o)
Take care everyone xxx

hey everyone

Hey everyone

Its been a while since I have done my blog. So heres an update..

I'm still working and enjoying it ,most days anyway, I have signed up for the gym again after getting the say so from the hospital. I have been told I have the early changes to my knees caused by arthritis but have to just see what happens.
I'm having accupuncture for my back which is fab and helping reduce the pain levels. I'm also booked in for pain management programme. I have to attend an induction day first so fingers crossed with that.
I've also had 1 session of colonic irrigation which was fab. It get rids of the build up in the colon and helps you feel better in yourself.


Well away from my health time is going so fast at the minute. We get married next year and havent sorted anything out yet. Mind you I need to lose weight before that arrives lol
Went to my friends 40th party last weekend and had such a fab time. It was what I needed.

OOHHH I have made my first sock monkey and loved it so there will be more to come there lol well it keeps me out of trouble for a while hee hee

New Year

Happy New Year to you all


This is  my first blog of the year. I hope everyone had a wonderful christmas.

I had a wonderful christmas with my family. Its been a quiet one but I couldnt have asked for anything more. I had wonderful pressies and most of all I had my kiddies& fella with me. I saw the new year in with Keanna and Marv coz the big uns were at their dads which felt abit strange to be honest.


My pain levels haven't been too bad thankfully. I've been able to enjoy it even tho I haven't drank anywhere near as much as normal lol 


I've got plans for this year. Its a case out out with the old n in with the new regarding alot in my life. 18 months until I get married and lots of weight to lose. I am going to lose weight and get my fitness levels up so I can be more mobile and able to deal with the pain.


I'm going to be more positive and not let things get me down so much. 


No more am I gonna let so called friends take me for a fool. True friends are there for you regardless. I know who my friends are and I love you guys. 


Alot of things have happened in the past but thats where they belong and thats where they will stay. I'm looking forward to what the new year brings me. 


Life is for the living and thats what I'm planning on doing xxxxx


 

Christmas Eve

Christmas Eve

wwwooohhhoooo its christmas eve already. I can't believe how quick this year as gone. 
Its our second christmas together and sssooo looking forward to it. 

I've been awake since 6.20ish after having a good nites sleep thanks to Diazapam. I was in so much pain I couldn't cope anymore so popped one of my pills and slept great. The pain isn't too bad at the moment either but its normally worse in the evening after being on the go all day. It does help when I do my impression of Bambi on Ice lol went down like a sack of spuds lol I was lucky my taxi stopped when he did because my leg went under the car so it could've been a different story. 

Marv had a close call too after having a blowout on Beggars lane on Weds in that snow. He made it work and got it sorted but I'm just grateful he wasn't hurt.

All pressies have been got and anything I've forgot then tough lol Just got beer shopping to do today and visit my Mum. Wish she was here to share christmas with us but thats one christmas wish I wont get. I know shes here in my heart so thats the best thing that I can cling too. 

I've got a few extra bits to wrap up today so need to get that done then chill out n start celebrating lol 

I'm hoping its going to be a good one and hopefully the new year will be a better one for us all.

Merry christmas everyone & I hope we all have a fantastic new year xxxxxxxxxxxx
 

run up to xmas

Well its not long til christmas, I hope you are all ready for it.
Me??? well not quite but I will be soon. Just a few bits to sort and wrapping to do then the partying can start.


I'm so happy that I get 2 weeks off for christmas yyyiiipppeeee alot different from last year.
I'm hoping that this will be a wonderful christmas with family and friends. I'm hoping everyone will have a great christmas and that we get to spend time with both family and good friends. 


After a very difficult year I'm praying for next year to be a good year for us. I know my health will be the same but maybe I will be able to deal with it more positively. I know when I feel sorry for myself I have got friends who will kick my butt lol and this I love them for xx


In regards to my health the MRI results came back. Not too bad to be honest. My compressed disc is now slightly prolapsed too so now I have 2 prolapsed discs and a compressed one.
I have to see my GP for my other problems as these are not being caused directly by my back. So its the whole referral process again but heyho they might finally sort me out lol
I'm planning on getting back to the gym after christmas to work on my fitness and hopefully shedding a few stone lol 

well thats it for now but be sure to keep an eye out for my next blog and please feel free to leave your comments as they help me alot xxxxxxxxx

ssooo tired

I'm sssoooo tired so its just a quick update

Had my MRI scan now waiting for the results but don't know when that will be because the hospital is messing me around. I just want sorting n my life back.
