Hello is there anybody out there? Welfare Cuts, thankyou's & stuff


I know I haven't posted in a very long time.  No Christmas Wishes, No Happy New Years..... Although I did sit in front of the laptop thinking I should nothing appeared on my blog.  This did not mean I didn't think it all, I just wrote nothing. We had a lovely family Christmas at home. New Year Celebrations are not really my thing and this year even though I meant to see it in, I fell very soundly asleep around 9pm and woke the following morning.  Apparently there were fireworks .....  Happy New Year to one and all.

I have been ill, of which I may write, I haven't decided yet. Daughter has also been really ill.
A long silence. Much has passed.

I am popping here to give this link, to show that I do really appreciate all the hard work that has been done. By Kali, from www.benefitscroungingscum.blogspot.com and Sue Marsh see the link to her site via Kali's blog. Apologies for lack of detail you may have guessed already I am tired, very tired.  Both of these women have campaigned tirelessly and are I hope managing to rest and recuperate as their work has affected their already very poor health.  I admire, respect and thank them both.

This link may help to explain all that has been going on - I haven't the resources to explain myself.

The links within the article are also worth following.

and this http://benefitscroungingscum.blogspot.com/     If you are tired read the second link first as its shorter but still explains.

I am off now. I have been reading all the blogs I follow regularly up until about a week ago. So need to catch up.  I hope to blog again far more regularly in 2012.  Please be patient as I am rusty and out of practice.  So expect waffling, disjointed mumblings about this and that, random thoughts and poor spelling.  Oh yes and I will be moaning here again about the reality of living with EDS because I refuse to feel guilty about doing that anymore.  So I will moan if I feel like it......  I hope though not too much!

Achelois, I have had to make my blog private. I would love for you to still be able to read it but I have to invite you and I don't have your email. How do we exchange personal addresses here?

I hope you're feeling a little better? ((hugs)) This is such a miserable time for so many. I've been living sleeping and dreaming #spartacusreport. I'm on twitter too. Frothing and shouting :)

Much love to you, Steph

I wouldn't want you to make things pretty for me. I could read a fairy tale for that. I like blogs that tell the truth.

Moan all you want. I've missed you and hope to read more posts in 2012.

And the links you posted...sigh. Damnit.

Ah! There you are. But EDS? I had no idea - harsh :-(

Just tell the truth. I'm switched back on again - do you want me to update my blogroll with this address or just keep it to myself?

Best wishes...
