Starting Over…

I’m finally back to Blip after far too long a break.

I have been awake since 5am this morning in agony, it’s just past ten o’clock in the evening.

I had a bad fall a month ago tomorrow which resulted in me requiring x-rays on both knees and my right ankle, my left knee is still not feeling great and it has been a very slow recovery. 

I feel very grateful there were no fractures, I was helped back into my feet by a kind stranger, I was totally immobile, went right down on my pavement, full impact. 

I have been struggling with my fibromyalgia pain and fatigue and I’m getting around two to three hours a night broken sleep. I feel broken.

I’m determined to Blip daily again. Feeling very down, I am hoping returning to Blipping will help my low mood. 

I wish more people understood what living with fibromyalgia and joint hypermobility syndrome is like.

Today’s Blip is of AI fashion doll of me - was rather impressed that I managed to do it! It was a good bit of chronic pain distraction this afternoon.

Got soaked in the torrential downpour here today - such a shame after the beautiful weather we have had recently.
