Sorry I've been offline for so long! It's not been a very good 2 weeks here, my mood has been quite low and I've just been following the keep on keeping on advice. G has had a decent few weeks, he's getting ready to spend a week in Korea and a week in Thailand for work, very exciting! He and some of the guys from his office are getting into steampunk, a sort of nerdy dressing up thing for conferences. :) Seems pretty cool.
I've had a few projects on but I really had to slow down for the last 2 weeks. Antidepressants are great in that they help your brain retain serotonin, but even with them the chemicals in our bodies fluctuate. I've switched to taking them in the mornings which was noricably better yesterday. PR for sound sleep and getting into a routine that doesn't involve late bedtimes and late morning starts.
Besides carrying on with business I've been teaching a bit of sewing on the side- creating patterns and altering clothes. I've been finding ideas online for refashioning old polos and stuff, which has been great fun! I showed a girl how to make a patch quilt, and she was amazed- I'm so glad to be able to pass on skills that were passed to me. I just bought a load of old horse blankets that I'm going to use for quilt backs, I'll let you know how it goes. :)
My nutritionist recommended a new eating regime to help my allergies- it has worked so far, but it means no wheat or dairy, no sugar, reduced caffeine and salt, and loads of fruit and veggies. I've been eating homemade borscht for just about every meal, and wheatfree bread. Plus some herbal supplements in my water.
Tomorrow before church I'm going to a massive car boot sale- think garage sale but where you load up the stuff and take it to a big field where everyone else comes too to sell and buy stuff. Great for finding fabric and cheap clothes for refashioning!
I'll upload a few photos of the past week or 2 for you. Miss you all!
