Hard to fight the harsh inner critic telling me I'm just being lazy, but struggling on would go against my ethos of protecting my energy and I'd feel a hypocrite as well as worse.
Difficult.

Taking a little time away from the blog & emails as I'm really very unwell and trying to keep on top of everything is making me worse. And risking a very severe downturn in my M.E. 😞

Therefore there will be no newsletter this Friday or the one after as I take this time to fully rest.

Hubs and I have a little break coming up soon too, which I'm really looking forward to. Must not do too much!

#ChronicIllness #ME #Pacing #NotVeryGoodAtIt #PEM #PleaseNoMoreCrashes

Currently in a phase of "if I get through these busy few days then I can rest" except the busy few days keep resetting every day 🙈
Last day of the Easter half term today, so hopefully from tomorrow I can feel a bit more sorted.

Loved this one! 😍

Petite, surprisingly powerful, quiet, affordable, body-safe, water-resistant and insertable.
