This morning was awful, woke up at 5.30 and was so uncomfortable, felt tense and pressure and didn't know what to do so ended up laying on the sofa watching the rest of the president crap and read my book. Ive been moving like an overly pregnant woman all morning, it's been awful! Eventually I…
First night at home
Wow it was so nice getting home again, being around my own belongings. I was absolutely exhausted all afternoon and evening though , so much to take in. It's crazy how quick you get institutionalised after being in the hospital too! My emotions got a bit crazy too and it hit me just how big…
