Good Morning, Good Afternoon, Good Evening ..... Again!

Thank you, Katie :D

Yes, I felt the adrenaline in my brother's gallery today when someone wanted something from a cabinet - I went all panicky and then really ill; honestly I think I'm a liability :roll: I made a hasty retreat :run:

I wonder whether, if it happens when you're resting (sorry,[b:c8917b2f4c] over[/b:c8917b2f4c]-resting :roll: ), you're thinking of something you've got to do without even being aware of the fact you're thinking about it (if that makes any sense at all :huh: )

I know my thought process goes :

Oh no, I've got to do (whatever) next Tuesday......how will I be able to do it if I feel ill .......oh panic......oh I feel ill......I'll never be able to do it.....oh even-worse-panic....I definitely won't be able to do it etc etc :roll:

Hello Mo- just seen your post :D

My thought processes go just like yours Daisy, my mind never relaxes. My ME consultant refers to it as 'mind chatter'. He tried to teach me some yoga deep breathing exercises but they made me go very dizzy. :cdouble:

I am beginning to think my hubby has the right idea. :roll:

Perhaps I will try to stop chastising him for his lack of effort/input/initiative/motivation. Oh dear, I sound horrible. :oops:

Happy Sunday everyone :D

I did my reading in church (nobody commented on my noisy racing heart :love: ) and am off to my brother's gallery in an hour or 2 where I hope I'll be more use than I was yesterday :roll:

Hope everyone's okayish - the sun is shining here and it feels almost like spring; hope you've all got some sunshine, wherever you are :hug:

Oh Hello Daisy :D

Glad the reading went well :thepost: I think that's actually very brave of you ..... anything like that and I think I would have gone into a rapid decline :shock: My confidence seems to have gone right down the pan these days ...... so well done :D

Hope you have had a better session at your brother's gallery and have sold lots of his pictures for him :ok:

It's been a very uninteresting day weatherwise here today (yesterday was beautiful) and it's darn cold again

The forecast for the week is quite good though so here's hoping :D

Hello Katie (and anyone else who's around?) :D

I think I'm better at reading in church than I am at adding up prices of dinosaur models (which is what I had to do this afternoon!) - maths never was my strong point and I'm even worse now :shock:

It's very embarrassing when a small boy tells me how much it comes to while I'm still trying to work it out :roll:

Yes, it felt quite spring-like today; a child on the beach at Lyme Regis had an amazing bubble-blowing thing that was making huge rainbow- coloured bubbles ; they floated off over the sea - really beautiful and such innocent fun somehow :rainbow:

Hi everyone Daisy I'm so glad you managed your reading in church well done, also for coping better at the gallery

Going over to other thread as I ned to scream and rant so be warned :evil: :evil: :cry: :cry: :cry:

Thanks Mo :D

Isn't it weird how some days are just better than others for no apparent reason - back to what you were saying yesterday, Katie :?

Mo - where are you? I've been to look and you haven't screamed or ranted yet :?

Hope you're okay :cheerup:

Oo er Mo :shock: I'll go and have a look in a minute and see if I can find your erm .... rant :? Hope it's nothing too serious

Gosh Daisy, your life sounds a lot more exciting than mine ..... not everyone can say they have been selling dinosaurs on a Sunday :dragon: :lol:

And also arithmetic skills go right out the window :flan: where ME is concerned .... so it's really not our fault that we can't add up :wink:

I do envy you being beside the sea ....... years ago we very nearly bought a little apartment in Dartmouth ..... but then it all feel through so we didn't pursue it ...... Think that is where I am going to retire, either there or Rye ...... oh .... and of course Eastbourne :D :magic:

Take care everyone ..... another exciting week is almost upon us :roll:

It's on the punchbag thread had to be approved by mods self expanitery below sorr guys knackered going to bed nite nite

Evening everyone :D

Or should I say Nit Nite :zzz:

Sorry I haven't been around today but I have been [i:35cdf37035]right wonky[/i:35cdf37035] :doh: :roll:

I think all that concentrating on making kaftans has taken it's toll especially trying to figure out how to make Katie's pure hand spun silk one with matching sequin encrusted leotard :wink: :lol:

Hope you have all had a fair-ish day and hopefully I'll be back tomorrow :cheerup:

Oh cripes Kristal, I feel really guilty now :shock:

A straightforward cotton job will do me just fine - honest :?

I'll even provide my own undergarments (Ann Summers, here I come 8) )

Nite, nite :sleepy:

morning!

i've just had the most stressful weekend [b:2bea77819e]EVER[/b:2bea77819e] :x , hence i've not been online.

a few days ago my car started making some bad sounds so i booked it in to kwikfit on sunday. :bus: it seemed to be the exhaust but in my naivety, i thought it would make it through the weekend. :roll:

on sat i loaded up the car with all the stuff for kate's birthday party and set off. noise got worse and worse until finally the back end of the exhaust FELL OFF and was dragging along the road :shock:

i ended up stopping in a bad place in a really dodgy estate only to realise i didnt have the number of my breakdown recovery in the car, at which point very sensibly burst in to floods of tears and became hysterical :wah: :yikes:

after that, i even more stupidly attempted to get the car up the road to kate's, at which point the exhaust fell off the car completely and into the road :yikes: i was so shocked i then drove in to a tree

after a lot more crying kate came to rescue me on the bicycle, called me cab, and got me and all the stuff home. i had to leave the car where it was until the next day cos it was too late to get it towed to a garage.

that night i still had to do all the birthday stuff for kate, and then the next day was one long nightmare of walking to the car, sitting in the tow truck, then walking the 15 mins back and forth from kwik fit where it cost over £300 to get fixed! :shock: :x :evil:

needless to say the whole thing left me completely exhausted, not to mention disappointed with myself for handling the whole thing so badly. i just felt so vulnerable, knowing that i didn't have the energy to look after myself properly, and so angry that my carefully laid plans had been ruined :evil:

seriously, how are we supposed to fit ME around life, which so often throws things like this at us?

Trees

Oh Trees, what a horrible experience :hug:

I reckon this crying thing is part of the whole ME package, you know. :?

I think that if we feel completely overwhelmed by a situation, which, if we were well, we'd be able to handle without too much difficulty, it just all becomes too much and the emotions take over :wah:

Glad the car's fixed now; hope you can have a really restful day to get over all that :cheerup:
