Well Christmas was fun. It was actually the first Christmas since the illness where I’ve actually fully joined in and not had to go for a sleep or leave early. We had a lot of fun at my cousins, we even had some special guests popping in.

New Years is a difficult time of year and I’m sure I’m not alone in feeling that way. This is the forth time where I have hoped that this will be the year I get my life back and each year gets a bit more difficult. Fortunately I was once again surrounded by friends and family and there is always enough drama (and Prosecco) going on to allow you to forget your problems for a while.

I’ve been doing really well apart from the insomnia which is really catching up with me at the moment – I’m really losing my sense of humour! I’m being extra healthy after my months of the ‘Dairylea on Toast’ diet. I’ve even bought a juicer, not my usual (or preferred colour) for a Saturday night. Is it bad that I followed that with a GnT, or is that the definition of a balanced diet?

I have been doing loads of yoga, Pilates and if I do anymore swimming I think I’ll develop gills. It feels good to be off the medication which furthers by belief that this isn’t all migraine and something interesting is going on with the Lyme thing. Also, I pick up every time I have any antibiotics so it really is most odd. I see my consultant in a couple of weeks and it will be interesting to see what his take on it all is.

Oh, soph and Hayden cheers for the Spirulina powder it’s an absolute delight to take 🙂
