T.V Addicts

Me and my husband watch a lot of TV. Put it this way when we had to evaluate our bills when I reduced my hours it wasn’t the Glossy Box subscription, the Mac foundation I love, or even the Aussie shampoo and conditioner that I missed, no it was our sky subscription. No longer can we just sit and watch sky movies, or for my husband sports, in glorious HD. We went through everything. Can we live without food? Paying the water bill? Council tax? No it had to be done we had to end it, get rid of the expensive extras, however we couldn’t part with it altogether that would be just too painful, sky Atlantic is our vice how can we live without repeats of E.R and House, the exciting new Game of Thrones, and the clincher was being able to pause and skip the adverts which is a pet hate of mine. Yes I no you can get freeview boxes that do this but no we are on a budget and can’t afford the box!

At the moment my favourites are Masterchef, Once Upon a Time, The Village, Game of Thrones, Dr Who and so many more that I just have to tape to watch over and over.  I even have my husband deleting the movies we have saved so there’s enough room for our programs when on honeymoon. I have taken 3 weeks off with the thought of getting over jetlag after our holiday of a lifetime, but no it will be a week of us frantically catching up on our T.V shows. Will we get home after over 24hrs of travelling and go to bed? No we will get the T.V on and watch the two episodes of Dr Who we have missed!! it’s a serious problem that most people wont admit too, we’re not lazy we just love T.V!!!!

Sunday lazy daze

So it's Sunday and leaving my washing till today turned out to be bad as its looked on the cusp of rain all day. So we have done nothing most of the day.

I took 2 amitriptolin tablets last night as the headaches have come back this weekend with vengeance this made this morning getting up hard and my brain pretty fuzzy.

Watched 3 films today Garden State with Zach braff being my favourite made me think about our little life and how being with my husband is what keeps me going waking up to his face every morning makes getting out of bed more tolerable.

We got married on the 15th of march this year and have been together 4 years he is truly my best friend and soul mate. We go on honeymoon in 13 days and we have an action packed Orlando holiday booked. We booked it before I became ill and we are taking a wheelchair as going round the parks will be a problem. Things left to do for are holiday are mainly pack and tidy the flat but we can leave that another weekend.

My right arm feels good today so I helped Rich cook cottage pie he chopped, peeled and carried the saucepan he was my sue chef (I have no idea of the spelling).

So this evening is bath and watch the village and once upon a time and back to work tomorrow.

Me and rich at our wedding

Introduction

About me and what the blog is about

Hi my name is Kelly I am 26 and I have M.E.

What is M.E?

The long term is Myalgic Encephalomyelitis and can also be called Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Post Viral Fatigue. The term M.E cannot be given a blunt description as there are so many differences in peoples symptoms.

M.E for me is fatigue, right sided weakness, chronic nerve headaches, disordered sleep, poor memory and concentration, sensitivity to light, smells and sudden changes in temperature, and a very poor immune system.
 I am writing this blog for myself and my family to get a better understanding of how it affects me. The plan is to write about how I feel and what my mood is most days I say most days rather than everyday because some days it affects me so much just getting out of bed is a struggle. I don’t just want this blog to be about the struggles and the hard times I also want to document the good times and the good days so when I am having a bad day I can look back at the good days and remind myself it will get better.
