What You Doing Wednesday Week 97

I hope your week is going well!

Sorry for the post being later than normal.

Things have been going on in the background

that have finally impacted on my blogging.

I have been losing the use of my limbs due to pain.

First it started in my left arm and I couldn't move it

without the pain making me sick.

Once that cleared I was relieved to only find a few weeks later

that I had the same problem in the right arm.

New medication cleared it after about 4 days

but yet again it was short lived.

This time it was my right ankle.

My left leg is my weak leg and I have to use a walking stick.

To then have a problem with my right leg was devastating.

I'm on new medication and touch wood it's helping.

I hadn't slept for a few nights due to the severe pain but

now it relaxes me and the muscles enough so I can sleep.

It's amazing how much easier it is to deal with pain when you've slept.

I have had to make a lot of decisions and a lot of decisions are up in the air.

I haven't been able to work for a few years now

but I have to face up to the fact that I can't try and behave "normally"

and it not impact on my health.

I am still going to blog but it is purely for fun.

I can't go out anymore due to my illness. Walking is difficult

and I can't drive anywhere.

So blogging and the internet is my lifeline

to the outside world.

I'll still be posting and I'll do as much as I can in advance

so on the days where I'm worse I can just relax.

I may not be able to reply to all your wonderful comments

but I love to read them!

I want to say a huge thank you for all of you being here.

Just knowing you are there makes a huge difference.

Anyway enough about that!

I've got some fun things I've been doing lately.

I'm learning to Knook.

I am really enjoying it and I'm already making myself

a pair of fingerless gloves for myself.

I know some people have said what is the point.

The point is someone who struggles with knitting and

can crochet can now knit!

I've got so many things I want to make. It's got me so excited!!!!

I'm loom knitting a scarf.

Little Red wanted to make it but then decided it would

be better if mummy made it.

I am also designing a little bunny rabbit.

Red Heart is finally more available in the UK

and I am super excited by it.

I love the mix of colours and I hope you'll like her

once I've finished.

The Halo Effect by M.J.Rose
