    After a couple of really good nights sleep I'm feeling much more energised and my mood has lifted a bit too.
    I've been getting some jobs done today and been spending time with Io.

    Fab!!
    The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.

    That's brilliant news!
    So, annoyingly it seems that taking the meds each night is a factor? At least you know - I know you can't change that now, unless A can give Io a lift to work a couple of mornings a week - wed and thursday or something so you can take one on Wednesday night?
    Do a little of something that makes you happy every day!

    At the moment we have worked out the best plan we can to help me both medicinaly and therapeuticaly.
    I need the balance of feeling useful and needed by the family but also need the effect of the meds to get a couple of nights of sound sleep a week. I do that on a Friday and Saturday night and sometimes a Sunday night depending if Io is at college or studying from home on a Monday.

    I've had a decent day, achieved goals and enjoyed time with Io.
    I even managed 4miles of a walk in the wind and hail. Last week I could barely be bothered to go to the loo so it's a big improvement. Of course I also had been poorly with my glands etc which probably drained me more than usual.

    I'm crocheting for fun this week, trying out some patterns I've been dying to make. It's nice having no pressure to get things finished. I'm enjoying the break.

    I'm proud of you for talking things through and coming up with a plan as good as you can for now. That's hugely important.

    Glad you're doing things which are good for your soul x

    Oh my goodness, typical April..... 4 seasons in one!!!
    We had snow, hail, icy wind and then beautiful sunshine on our walk today.
    We were dressed in hats, coats and boots and then stripping our coats off the next moment because the sun came out.
    It was lovely to get out with A for a walk though.

    Si put the washing out this morning and it dried... then we had snow! It’s bizarre
