I’m Penny, a Christian Chronic Illness blogger/writer and podcaster, homebound by severe *ME/cfs since 2004. An empty nester in midlife, I’m blessed with a husband and beautiful Sighthound who travel the bumpy *’spoonie‘ road with me.
If you’re not familiar with ME/cfs – *Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (aka Chronic Fatigue Syndrome), to be honest, I wasn’t either. My Story with ME/cfs explains in more detail and is a work in progress.
I started my blog in 2016, while adjusting to a very painful farewell to my first adopted companion Sighthound of 10 years. There was a huge void.
My aim, to find and share hope amidst massive life change, which has been ongoing for some years. I write about many aspects of life, the subjects being fairly eclectic. A bit like me. I also enjoy trying to make folk laugh.
I’m aka a ~

- pwME
- #Millionsmissing
Some topics I discuss are sensitive, which is something that can’t be ignored in Chronic Illness life. But I try not to be serious for too long.
I have recently been published by Live Art Development Agency, London in – The Live Art Almanac Volume 5‘. Which I am ecstatic about. I talk a little more about it here –Eek! I have been published!!
I hope you enjoy my blog, all subscribers are most welcome.
Thanks so much for popping by and have a blessed day.

Lovely. A bit of stormy sky in one of your pictures, yet the beauty still shines through, just like God’s love in stormy times.

Yep, with the weather warnings at the moment, the wintery cold, the bucketing rain and floods it’s definitely classic British weather! I hope the summer hasn’t forgotten us. xx

Yes, I hope so too. Although we’ve had a window of sunshine & clouds for a few hours today. Which has been very welcome. Had the central heating on yesterday. I was freezing!! Summer is playing hide & seek with us all this year! 😁💙💛⛅
