Acht well... just have to start all over again

That is the thought for the day... Just back from a visit to the pchyciatrist at the hospital and she is not a happy bunny... I have been a bad girl and not been taking my meds... long story that I will not go into but she has read me the riot act and I have to attend my G.P's to get more blood tests done.. just had a batch done.... low calcium count and my folic acid is also very low... now I have to start on the blood test trial over again... once that is done she is bringing forward my new meds.. After months of new tablets to get me off the old ones and to keep me stable I am eventually being put on my new meds which with everything crossed will go to plan... the new meds are Lithium and I knew I would eventually go on them but I am still very apprehensive about it... bad press etc. she has said that she will keep a very close eye on me as there are side affects like kidney damage etc but fingers crossed all will go ok. So that is me I feel as though I am starting over again. I am having a last binge day food wise then it is on to a healthy eating plan as the new meds can make me put on weight.. also my other news is that we are looking for a puppy... I have always wanted a dog ... for company and for walking... I need a reason most mornings to get myself washed and dressed.. to be honest most days I don't... most days I usually spend the day in my pyjamas.. so I am so looking forward to getting a new addition to the family.. Graham is not exactly keen but he understands my reasons for getting a puppy. I really am looking forward to getting out and about in the fresh air, walking on my own was never an issue for safety reasons and also I always felt bloody stupid out for a walk on my own!

Had a fabby parcel delivery today from Anna @ the almost closed down Bumblebee Crafts Anna really is an Angel... I love getting pizza boxes but I love it even more when it is from Anna. Great start to the day especially since there was a mini mars bar in the box.. lol... that was breakfast... (remember last day of binging! so was allowed it!) I have placed another order with her too as she has so many bargains on the site as the site is closing very soon as everything will be on her fabbo new site Scrapping Angels which I also get the monthly kits from which are just stunning.. not played with my Feb kit yet as waiting for just the right project for them... But this evening will be spent playing with today's arrivals from Anna.. cannot wait... I have been busy making lots of cards and mini books for the Dogs Trust Charity and I have been having an absolute ball doing it. Angela from Craft At Home has a poster in the shop for the charity and is encouraging all us crafters to do some stuff so I just got stuck in.. have already delivered some but got lots more to hand in... been using all my scraps of paper that I have been storing since I started crafting so it's been a good way to clear them all out...

Have also been a bit of a techy geek... When we were over in Disney in Paris I often forgot to charge my camera so when the batteries went down I started using my phone for videos and pix but as it was a new phone I had not a clue how to get them from my phone to my pc without a cable... finally worked out how to do it with bluetooth and was chuffed to bits when I managed it... here is my favourite pic from the ones I have got on the PC so far... Just love this pic.. not brilliant compared to most of you but hey I like it and that is what matters.!

Right off to get my butt in gear for the kids coming in from school... oh goody! LOL

Hope you are all safe and well

Take care
