A dear friend of mine helped me see things from another perspective. I was hurt, resentful & feeling abandoned, as people continued with their lives & mine stood still. We discussed the Let Them theory, but I realised the role I played in it all too. I was unfair to put it all on them.

Toby isn't impressed that I accidentally woke him from a power nap... 😏🤭 I know how you feel pal #TinyToby #ME/CFS #pwME

Dogs are the best!! My little guy knows when I need to nap & also when I'm sad & need snugs. I know not entirely medical, but he just gets me & accepts me 🥹

It's been 'one of them' weeks 🙃 So, what better way to start the weekend than with Saturday morning snugs with #TinyToby 🥰🥰

Feeling sorry for myself today. Was offered the opportunity to do what I love, coaching a young person. But made me realise, I'm not ready (not well enough) to & scared I never will be. Hate not having control of my life & lost so much confidence 😢💔

My poem for today 🫶

I've been pretty poorly today, so this felt good to share. Almost didn't get round to writing it, but did eventually 🙏

This was 2 yrs ago today. I graduated 19 years after 1st starting uni in 2003. Quit due to health in 2006. Signed up for Open University in 2019, finished in 2022. Things were finally coming together! A lot has changed in the 2yrs since 🤷‍♀️ I'm still so proud of this, I did it!

Day 3 of my vss365 writing.

Quite pleased as my goal was to write a line or 2 a day. I've managed a poem a day for 3 days now! 🙌 #pwME #me/cfs

A day of snuggling with #TinyToby, away from the cold winter weather. It looked beautiful though, I must say 😍 🌨
