Excuse the Absence; We Have Big News

So I have not written since June, not too surprising as I have been quite ill and overloaded. For those of you that don’t know me, I am disabled and suffer from a bunch of invisible illnesses (POTS, EDS, MCAD, IC, chronic respiratory issues and many more).

I exhausted lady. No time-y. Busy pants.

So I haven’t felt I’ve had much time to post. I’m incoherent beyond the brain fog of my condition. It’s been a nutso year.

I can still feel the cold and shakes. I have been dormant, hibernating from the world, not moving out of my warm bed with sweaters, gloves, a toque, layered pants and super socks for fear of shaking attacks with my conditions that still happened. Basically my body and brain do not do that whole temperature change or the super hot or cold. It was horrid but on the bright side we made it and I’ve never been happier for spring.
