A Review of Sorts

I was chatting recently on a blog about online communication, and jokingly mentioned Progress Reviews. Can one joke about such things? Along with the fact that I have only just realised that the WP 'Daily Prompt' has been defunct for almost a year! Finger on the pulse as per!! This got me thinking. 'Oh not … Continue reading A Review of Sorts

Sing-along-a-Shower-Day

I ask myself the following Question. Do I ever stop ~ talking/thinking about the likelihood of the last problems with and delight of a shower? In all honesty, probably not. Obsessed much!

Hellooooo

Hi!🙋I'm still here pootling along, and working on some posts, but ever so slowly. My 'ME' brain isn't keen on increasing the pace right now.  I hope Lent has started well for you.

Where ever I'm stuck, however, … Continue reading Help while stuck at ‘Base Camp’

A letter to the parents who are chronically ill (You are not a failure)

This is the first time I have reblogged a post from another blogger. It's such a poignant post, I had too.  Reblogged from Called to Watch.

#WhatsYourWord – Part 2

#WhatsYourWord - Part 2 I hadn't realised how helpful #WhatsYourWord was going to be. Ongoing discussions and debates in the ME/cfs world, concerning *GET & *CBT and the damage it can cause, have very recently severely disrupted & challenged my peace. And it has caught me off guard. Having taken years to reach a point … Continue reading #WhatsYourWord – Part 2

Marriage and Chronic illness – for Richer, for Poorer

Part I ~ For richer for poorer One of the many facets of Marriage within Chronic illness. During this year, with my husband, we celebrated 30 years of marriage. We didn't anticipate the limitations now ever-present, we hadn't even thought about that when we first married. We were young, naive, having fun (and learning about … Continue reading Marriage and Chronic illness – for Richer, for Poorer
