Finally I get on......

Dont know what it is, but I really dont like electrical stuff. it sooo neva works for me, including the net. More importantly the new blogger doesnt like me.

Hi All
yes Im stil alive... just ... nah just joshing ya.

Ive been busy doing not much really. Went back to my GP and the official diagonsis is Degenerative disc and joint disorder. In other words I have Osteoarthritis. I am on meds that I will need to keep taking. Loads of painkillers, meds to help me sleep and stuff. So atm while my brain and body are adjusting to them I am not fully myself. *wink*. Actually I havent taken any this morning and Im really feeling it now. Nice cuppa, meds and a lay down would be the bargain to have.

So while Ive been doing not much Ive been busy doing little things.
Todays post will be a picture post really. Fingers and wrists are a little sore today

Firstly some little things I been whipping up for my baby girl. Knitting and yes sewing. Im learning to sew. The pants took me 4 weeks to make *blush* I am better at it a little now haha






This is smells surprise... haha thats all u see, its coming slowly, very slowly




And these are the hippie pants I made for Brins
and she picked this atrocious yarn out from Big W, they are now selling carnival yarns in self stripping, camoflarge and fair isle patterning, not bad actually, and for ackrylic its kinda soft too. This one is the orange fluro lime and pink and white fair isle matches the pants really. she wants a vest from it so here goes, just making it up as I go according to what she said she wanted, long rib band and a lower round neck.

Also some random pics......

Kiss dolls given to me and the spunk by donuts ex boyfriend. Gotta love em, they as big as a 3 yr old .... and kinda scary.

And my baby girl

This one is chillin' out


My Little Princess


And a witch in the making ;)

Yesterday I took myself off into town(which accounts for why I cant move today) but anyways I went to try and spend the gift vouchers the spunk gave me for my birthday $100 at angus and robertsons. Come on guys get ur friggen fingers out and get some decent books in. I came away empty handed AGAIN. Ive done all the stores in Perth now, and still have my vouchers... anyone wanna buy em, so I can go and spend at BORDERS..... OMG i need a small lotto win here. I picked out 6 books I really really really must have this year so far its only march haha. Knitting books abound in Borders. I will be going there more often now.

Ok Im gunna try uploading this and if the pics dont work out I promise to close this blog down. Blogger get it right... lol

Ciao all

Just a real short one to say Im alive and kicking, been sleeping alot, drugging myself on painkillers alot and doing a little knitting.

Started a surprise for smelly. SHE WILL HAVE TO WAIT hahahahahaha.

The jumper I was making myself, well I did the back and front and most of the sleeves then frogged it, so that was wasteful in a way, but heck I will get back to it. Im thinking instead of a Zip up jacket in the green wool. Just have to get back into all that green, was feeling kinda kermitish.

Started a hat for Heff yesterday watching the v8's GO HOLDEN.... and finished it this arvo.... pink, fluffy and cute. Next is a vest for the heff and one for Brins too. And she needs some redoing of her fav jumper, bit added here and there for length and the sleeves. My baby girl is gunna be a tall girl sometime soon. Haha

Well Smell has finally moved into her new house in SA and settling in. Im glad but we still miss her heaps.

My boy/man leaves for the navy next month, good smummy I am I thought it was Sat just gone and got myself into a tiss.

Still going to sewing classes, just not progressing as I hoped. I need one on one teaching I think. I tend to move along and then have to sit patiently and wait till everyone else has used and abused her brains so I can have help again. Im going all day tomorrow. Im making the heff a outfit and I want to finish it tomorrow so I can maybe make me something sometime. I wouldnt mind some nice kimono style tops for myself. And I promised smell I would make heff some new curtains.

Last Saturday night the spunk and I and some friends, headed to the showgrounds for a Bon Scott Tribute Concert.... The Angels and Rose Tattoo were there as well as the Party boys and a few other top names in the muso side of life. Had a absolute ball of a time.

Onto medical side of things, Bursitis is alive and well, Bastard thing, Im so sick of it all.
The pain all over my body is bad enuff, but the hip pain is the pits.
Doing a pain management course over the next few months, so Im hoping that helps, BUT i did stumble on something I think it may be, It all adds up really. I have all the major symptoms and a hell of alot of the minor ones. I think I may have fibromyalgia..... Do you have this, if so email me or leave a message. I would like to find out some more about it. I have a appointment this week with the doc to discuss the possibility. And While I know its not cureable, its treatable and its positive. Well for me anyway. My specialist ruled out imflammitory athritis in his report and my own gp cant understand it as I have swelling in my joints. Alas one of the symptoms of fibromyalgia

Im so tired, I dropped Brins at school the other day came home and went back to bed till nearly time to go get her again, Its happening a bit lately, I helped a mate out last week doing stocktake and I admit I have it cushy there but it took me a few days to get myself back again. Totally exhusted me it did.
Ok which one of you stole my energy and what have you done with it. LOL

Ok Im off to read some blogs and be done with it. BTW now smelly has her phone line back she will be looking after the side bar of my blog so the aussie ring thingy and everyones buttons and blogs etc shall be back up soon.
Im so useless at that stuff.

Ciao for now all Bye

I'll finish what Im making and take pics for next time.
