My medical problems and their investigation and treatment
What's On Your Workdesk this Wednesday? Better late than never - just managing to get this posted before the end of the day! I wanted to bring my Tudor gown project up to date before posting, and I have also had other commitments today. I'm sorry I didn't manage to visit many of…
Sorry to be AWOL for the past couple of weeks. We seem to have been very busy of late, and something had to go... I've been doing a great deal of preparation for the final two sessions of our Bible study group before we break till the New Year, and that has taken…
What's On Your Workdesk this Wednesday? A bit of a mixed bag this week! I have managed to do a bit of tidying in my studio. I've been doing some more experimenting with the bleaching of the teabags, sewn some more teabags, and made further progress on my slippers. I've had some problems…
Another grocery delivery today, and some more veg prep ready for the week. Slightly less, as I have plenty of food prepared in the freezer, so I am hoping I will have a bit less cooking to do this week. Here is my usual colourful display of fruit and veg waiting to be…
Friday - Sorry folks - with all the stress involved in my PIP assessment on Thursday, I completely forgot to upload the draft of my WOYWW post! I did wonder why I wasn't getting any comments that actually referred to it... Duh... Too much on my mind, and the whole thing has exhausted…

These benefits are to enable chronically sick and disabled people to meet the extra needs they have and to…
What's On my Workdesk this Wednesday? Same as last week - a mess. Also, like last week, my creativity has been away from the studio, in the kitchen and on my lap in the sitting room working on Phase 2 of my Eco Project. Eco Project Phase 2: Make-Up Remover Pads I have…
Today we went up onto Dartmoor for a picnic. It was a beautiful day, and I was anxious to try my new Trekinetic wheelchair on this different terrain. It has been so many years since I have been up on the moors and actually got off the road, so this was a real…
What's On my Workdesk this Wednesday? Nothing new, I'm afraid. Still working on my eco project, so the sewing machine has been in use in the studio this week, and I've been doing some hand-sewing while watching TV etc. I am waiting for a couple of things to arrive from Ebay which should…
Another nice grocery delivery this morning, nearly all of which was fruit and veg. Once I had unpacked it all (too much plastic! Is it really necessary to cling-wrap a head of broccoli?? - bag of wrappings on far right), it looked as if I was about to celebrate Harvest Festival in my…
