Knackered mother of three one & slave to 5 cats

Moderate to severe ME.
aaaarrrrrggghhh

Not only have I developed an inability to leave the house by myself, I am struggling to speak to people.

Bah!!! I need to ring my mother. I’ve been trying for 5 days & it’s not happening yet.

I hate being like this 😢

A bad day. ME symptoms have reduced enough for the guilt at not seeing mother for weeks to kick in.

Bless her. She rang to inform me she was very sick and only able to go out a few times last week.

(I left the house 7 times last year - in total)

I had a mad 5 minutes & bought compression socks.

I am tentatively thinking they help. I mean I feel better because I’m coming out of the Christmas crash, but I feel *noticeably* better.

I haven’t worn knee socks since high school but I think more are in my futures
Yup, double socks it’s cold

Ouch.

Visit from my son & his partner this weekend. It’s always wonderful to see them.

And we all put up the Christmas Tree 🌲. Now my body is sulking at me. But it’s doing it by fairy lights

Tragically I’m out of my favourite coffee.

I pinched one of himselfs. It tastes of sorrow and wrongness 😢

Word of this morning is ‘procaffeinate’: to put everything on hold until you’ve had sufficient amounts of coffee.

A peaceful day with a Christmas Falls novel & the cats. We are all hiding from the cold weather. Even the kitten!

It’s hormonal day. Woke up - freezing. Got dressed in the biggest, cosiest jumper. Now bright red & the cats are using me as a heat source.

Menopause sucks

Chin up. Shoulders back. We survived the last time.

Christmas trees. I adore all the Christmas pizzazz, Christmas Day I can take or leave, but sending cards, buying presents, decorating, mad Christmas clothes. All bring me deep joy.

It takes a while, and a lot of help, but my decorations are up & shiny. Yes I’m aiming for a forest.
