Pleased with kitchen looks really nice it was hectic and tiring and I stayed at my parent's when it was been done so was glad to get back to my own bed! Worth it though to get out of the mess.
Hopefully I will get back to my crafting soon as I have missed it lately.

Hectic Time
Been planning by Brother's wedding for past month or so and it's been hectic, finally got my life back!
But now I have deflated feeling, all that build up and then the event is over.
I have to find something new to organise so am planning a table top sale in August for some friends, there seems a lot of interest so let's hope it works out okay on the day.
One think I am surprised at is how well I coped with it all the party was a real undertaking, up to 100 guests, I had to track many down as it had been years since my Brother was in touch with them so that a feat in itself and then I made the invites too. I did not have long to plan it all as it was a bit of a whirlwind thing. I also planned a band of young ones who really made the night. It got everyone on the dance floor, we even had barn dancing (not my idea by the way) and that was a laugh. The clearing up was the worst and poor mum had a house like a bomb had hit in afterwards. Anyway it was worth it as everyone said how well it went and I got some praise for my organising skills so i got a good sense of achievement in it too.
I am very tired now though it hit me like a tonne of bricks on Monday. On Saturday we went out to countryside with some of the visitors and then on Sunday we had a couple of relatives round too and so I did not get to rest till Monday. Then we still have family here till July 13th but it is nice as not had chance to get to know my SIL really as she is from New York.

Picking up ....
I feel a bit better, I had a really bad night though I tried to go to sleep but my stomach was swollen just under my ribs and it felt blocked again and there was some pain though very slight it stopped me getting to sleep so I went down I wrote a bit to get some thoughts out of my head then hubby came down shattered to see if I was ok and to help me get back to bed. I was supposed to have my hair cut tomorrow I have a friend who comes to the house but I can't even do that as she wanted to come at 10am and I am not getting up early at the moment and I need a bath in the morning so I had to cancel but my hair is a real mess and needs cutting and I know I would feel better for it but I don't want to risk passing on whatever I had to her, though I can't see it been contagious now if it's gastric flu then it says on the net it is contagious for 5-7 days and I am not well yet. It's a lovely sunny today I will have to get dressed and do something even if it's just sitting around or in the garden relaxing. My house has suffered it only takes a day or two for me to be unable to do stuff then it's a mess and then as soon I get better I end up doing it in one hog to catch up. Though hubby helps a lot he does vaccing and mopping you know how men are they never do it the same:) At least he could go to shops yesterday or I would not have managed. It's times like this I realise how much it's a blessing I have no kids. Imagine been this ill and not been able to rest, the thought is unbearable so I will count my blessings.

How shocking can you feel?!!
My friend came with her little boy he looked white as a sheet and he ended up filling his nappy and stinking out my living room! Anyway that was Wednesday then on Sunday night I was on and off the loo all night with the runs. It was so wearing as not getting much sleep on top of ME is dreadful as those with ME know well.
I also have like a blockage in my gullet, get this time to time usually when I eat what I shouldn't like wheat I did have bit of a wheat binge at weekend as I indulged in a pizza which I thoroughly enjoyed at the time anyway I feel so fed up and uncomfy. I was supposed to have workmen coming today to fit us an outside tap and a thermostat but had to cancel. I also have my craft group on Friday which I hope I can make but if I don't feel a lot better by then I can't. I hate this 'life' and I just hope things pick up soon or not sure what I will do. Cope I suppose like I have done for the last 15 years what more can you do ......
