Pain isn't everything

It's not been as long since my last blog, Haha I might just be getting back into this.

I feel today I should blog because its been a bit of a rough weekend :(

I had a nice chilled out night on Friday, lazing on the sofa, bit of pampering, nice relaxing bath and then promptly was sick. Fab. I should have expected it, it's been building up during the week. I just didn't think. 

Saturday and Sunday, everything is fine. 

Monday comes along and it was a miserable day (weather wise) so I think what to do. I know let's bake cakes! Everything was fine but it seems that the effort of whisking the mix and putting two lots in the oven and melting two lots of chocolate was too much and I was ill again. I couldn't actually believe it. An hour before i'd been smiling and happy and whisking cake mix and yet there I was, drifting off to sleep feeling and looking rubbish :(. I hate it. 

SO today I went to work and felt a bit ill but thought nothing of it and with cold coke, (thanks Leffy!) went to Tescos after work and that was fine, came home made dinner as you do. After dinner I was watching the tele and I had this strange feeling. Looked down and my nose was bleeding. Unreal. I was never a nose bleedy kid. I have got to age 20 and still panic when I get a nose bleed. Thinking of it I had a snuffly nose since I went to bed last nite and thought nothing of it. Idiot.

There is more that I won't go into in the blog but it's safe to say - i'm not well. :( I'm gutted, everything in my life is amazing right now but then I feel like i've just been wiped out. 

In other news, I bought a TENS Machine! I haven't had any pain to try it out on yet though. Damn it! I would rather pain than all this other shite now i've got a TENS! Bring it on! But I have hooked it up and everything so I know it works, I know how to set it up when i'm in pain and to see what it feels like. It doesnt really kick in until you set up the vibes up until about 8 for me and then it feels a bit like tense skin, but I have it set to ten and its like a teeny tiny person, like a pixie, walking back and forth across the inside of your tummy, how cool!

We counted the money in dads Money bottle on Sunday, we had more than ever before and there was so many pound coins in there, during his latter days, Grandad never had any pound coins and used to apologise he never had them to give to me (softy!). We worked out why on Sunday. Love you always Grandad! <3

Steph and Margaret came round last week, it felt so good to laugh with them. Margaret and I seem to go ages without a catch up, need to rectify that. It felt like forever since i'd seen Steph but while she was here, nothing had changed. I'm hoping to see her soon. I love you guys millions! <3

Everything in life is so good right now, I couldn't be happier apart from being better. :)
