Well well well ...

Its Friday, and nearly mid-day ... Told myself I should probably get out of bed.

Things have been kinda crazy the past couple of days. Some nasty comments, some painful thoughts ... But, on the upside, I met Dame Vera Lynn (!!!), earned £30 for helping with interviews at the hospital, and have gained a new friend. Isn't it curious the circamstances that can bring people together?

I need to decide what to do about college, and about September in general. Got some very difficult decisions to make. And it is relevent, because the ME is whats making the decisions very difficult to come to! Blasted medical conditions...

Sunday and Monday I was stuck in bed, because I over exerted myself on Friday and Saturday. Was well worth it, though, as far as I'm concered, because the Royal Marines Band were fantastic, and the wedding reception was lovely.

Things like that tire me out so much! Its crazy, thinking about how much I used to do, and how little I can do now. People not understanding, and being cruel about it, really doesn't help, and, nasty as it may sound, I really wish sometimes that they could suffer from all this, just for a week, to see how hard it really is.

I've been invited out to go to a beach party this afternoon - not only is it raining, but how on earth am I supposed to walk across the pebbles?!? Could be a very interesting day, if I decide to go.

I've been advised to send off for Disability Living Allowence. I don't know how I feel about that, really. Don't appricate being told I could be registered disabled. But at the same time, I'm not working, can't get EMA because I'm not at college, and I don't like having to ask my parents for money. So it IS sensible I guess. The form is a mission though - its like 50 pages long!!!
