Chronic pain strikes again

I have no idea what happened to today’s blog, it only uploaded the first part of it! Grrrr

My chronic pain is back with avengence, but I’m hoping it’s a short lived thing. I can only take oramorph and paracetamol in between new pain meds and even though my pain meds have been tripled in dose I’m still in massive pain. Fingers crossed it’ll ease off.

I had a plumber come today, my toilet wasn’t flushing properly which was yucky. I took the top off the cistern and saw I needed a new ball cock (tee hee) in the past I would’ve fixed it myself but I no longer have the energy or ability to pop to the shop for supplies. The plumber was nice enough and fixed it within minutes, so my toilet now flushes better than ever. Relief 🙂

It’s my partner and I 1 year anniversary on Monday. We are planning a trip to the zoo which I am really excited about! I am hoping that I can go, it’ll be the first major outing for me in neatly 2 years. I’ll dose myself up with painkillers and bring my aides and other bits to make the day easier in my body.
I want to roar at the lions oooh oooh at the monkeys and go into the bat sanctuary and have them fly around me. I am going to do my best to get there!

It is my longest proper relationship and although it’s been difficult at times we’ve got through it and are stronger than ever. I became really unwell within two months of us being together which would impact on any relationship. I was willing to let him go, I said I wouldn’t hold it against him if he did and I didn’t want to put my stuff onto him. He refused and has been there every step of the way. There is a six year age difference between us, he’s younger but it’s not an issue at all as we are very mentally connected and he is very wise. He tells me every day he loves me, how beautiful I am and I know they’re not just words. He is the guy in movies you watch that are loving, supportive, kind, always there and you never believe that kind of man exists. But he does, and I love him more than I could describe, I appreciate him and he is my equal in every way. I am an incredibly lucky lady.

I aim to make some bracelets later on if my pain decreases, I have so many beads, silver accessories and chains that my partner bought I could make around 50 with them. I also have neckelace items which I am to make, I love silver! It’s favourite colour next to black. I will post pictures if I do make them and would appreciate honest opinions 🙂

    Happy Anniversary! Hope your pain lets up and allows you to enjoy the zoo! Glad you found the special person you have in your partner – it is a rare and beautiful thing.

    I would love to see the bracelets you make! I also make jewelry when I can (even started a business before realizing how much energy it took. Have not given up on it yet! There may be a posting on my blog about it soon – at least I hope to do it!)

    Feel Well!

  2. Hi. This post sounds so positive compared to others. I also hope you get to the zoo. You deserve an outing, and it’s also for your special occasion with your special guy. Very lovely. I, also, am looking forward to seeing what jewelry you make. Good thing that plumber did a good job! Nothing like not having the toilet working properly. I’m hoping for your zoo-day to be everything you want it to be.

    • Thank you 🙂 it’s supposed to be sunny too so the animals will definetly be out! 😀 I’m like a kid with animals and I’ll get there by hook or crook 🙂
      Yes the toilet was getting to the point that I was concerned it would totally stop working. Something that would be a horror! Yukky yuk.. Aha 🙂
