health update

well for the past few weeks ive been having trouble breathing and my heart rate has increased from around 70bpm to 93 and up bpm. it feels like its going to burst thru my chest. ive had trouble with sinus pain but that is getting better. my whole body aches and i have muscle spasams that get really anoying. its all part of M.E i will just have to get used to it. it does get frustrating tho. there are days when i can hobble to the corner shop which is only six houses away, it takes me a while but then im knackered for the rest of the week. when i do go to the corner shop people make coments like shes a dla fraud and other nasty things that i wont repeat. they dont even know my name and all of a sudden they know everything about my state of health, it is so frustrating trying to ignore them because they like a lot of people dont understand about M.E. its so hard to deal with day in day out. some days i cant even lift my cup of tea to take a drink.

when we go out we have to take special care with the paths as they r covered in dogg crap and glass, which when it gets on the wheelchair's wheels it also gets on my hands as that is how i get around. ive had cuts from glass that got stuck on the wheels and it gets me so mad i want to scream at someone. so aaaaaaarrrrrrrrggggggggggg to those of u who dont clean up ur mess or ur dog mess when out. and thankyou to those who do, u have no idea how much a simple little thing helps the disabled.

dollhouse update


the dollhouse is coming along nicely, so far it has two coats of primer and two coats of color. the spindles are stained and varnished. the windows are in and the stair cases are under construction. i have a few peices of furniture to go inside so far and im making my own mini things.

doggie update



maverick is settling in well, he and memphis get on fantastic. both of his ears are now up and his nice fluffy coat is starting to disapear as his new coat comes in. he had a great christmas opening his prezzies.
memphis had lots of fun too but they both wanted the same toy.

maverick has learned to give a pawand he is so well behaved. we have only had him a few weeks and he is already house trained and he loves his walkies.
