Work

Well these last two weeks have been busy busy busy! We have had seven days where we've had workman, sometimes two at a time. This means the house is way more sorted than it was. We have two bedrooms left to decorate and carpet and an extractor fan to have put in the kitchen. Then there is some stuff to do in the garden if we have any money left for it.

I am now working again, well doing Avon, not sure if that really classes as work or not. We wanted to see if I could cope with having some regular stuff to do to know if I could manage a job with regular hours every week. At the mo I only have a little round so am hoping that friends and family will order some stuff so that I can actually make some money from it. Let me know if you want a catalogue! It is nice to know that I will hopefully be bringing some pennies in, even if it is just a small amount, helps with the old self-confidence.

house

Well the work in the house is suddenly getting done quick quick quick! By Wednesday we will just have two bedrooms to do - and a little curtain to make. It seems to have suddenly gone from lots to do, to not much left to do. I have, fortunately, been really good this past couple of weeks - we think the best I've been in about 2 years. I'm still a fair way from being completely well but it is really nice to be this well. Still can't drive very far, but am able to do a lot more during the day and often carry on doing things into the evening which is really lovely. This weekends big job is to move nearly all of the downstairs furniture/stuff upstairs ready for the carpet man on Monday. It is all squeezing into two rooms as the whole of the rest of the house is being re-carpeted. Fun times!

thanks

I say 'thanks' to those who sent some thoughts following my last post. As was highlighted to me, getting married changes who you are, and you don't have to be the same you you were before. I had thought a bit about both those things, but it was helpful to be able to think a bit about who I was. I'm a firm believer that life experiences change you, but to know where you are going it can be helpful to know where you have come from/been. So thank you to those that have been helping with all these thoughts.

This last week I have been the most well that I have been in at least two years. It has been lovely, although at the same time a little frustrating as I know that I can't quite use the wellness to the full otherwise I'm at risk of being not so well. But to actually be able to do things most of the day through has been wonderful, a little peek at what we hopefully have to come when proper wellness comes to reign again.
