bad blogger..blame iphone...

hmm ... i am beginning to wonder if its worth keeping this blog going, i am finding it difficult to keep it updated, mainly I blame the iphone.... i hardly ever use my lap top anymore... so this is a last ditch attempt at my blog, I am reluctant to say goodbye to it mainly because most of the difficult times in my life i have written about and are here in case i ever need to revisit them or ponder...

health isnt great this last few weeks, harriet lovingly gave me a cold and after a day i knew it would hav gone to my chest which is predicatbly did so, in the worst way, i spent 2 nights with 2 hours scattered sleep before having a 'tired' meltdown at 3am last thursday as i was unable to sleep and absolutely exhausted. none of this is helped by the fact i am unable to sleep/rest during the day due to a very active 18 month old (where has the time gone ) so I have got Cipro for 14 days , but i havent seen any improvement yet -5 days- still wheezing and creaking and have a delightfully blueish tinge to my nails and lips, my sats are when resting sitting at 90-93% i am hoping tomorrow or weds i may see some benefit otherwise i may have to admit defeat and get admitted, not bad for it being 2nd time this year for IVs, previously it used to be a 4-5-6 yearly trip... thats what looking after yourself and being reasonably compliant does.... Any way apart from that i am good. working as a nursery nurse 20 hours a week which is more than enough,although i am on sick already and been employed for only 6 weeks! but they are great about it thank heavens!

off to plymouth in 3 weeks with the in laws and sister and their kids which will be lovley just hope i can shift creaky chest by then ~! fingers crossed..

until next time...

a few pictures from the last month or so,

long time no post....again

no posting here as i have nothing to post about, health is great, home is good, and family very very good. I am also starting a new job tomorrow, Since Harriet I was working 1 day a week at pets at home, - hated it, but i got offered my old job in a nursery back. and i took it with open arms, i will be doing 20 hours a week, one full day and a morning and an afternoon per week, which will bring a bit more cash in, and get me out the house, i am so pleased i will be doing something I actually want to do and i love working with kids, although i much prefer my own but no one is going to pay me to stay at home unfortunately, Harriet is 16 months old and very much mobile! shes my best pal ever! health is fantastic, although i have a friend with cf who is quite poorly and needs a Tx, and she had a false alarm today and it has made me realise i am so very lucky to have good (reasonably) health, all things considering, hope she gets that second chance soon.

hiii
