DOODLE PAD

carol101 · 1. Nov 2009, 00:14

Quite often i find myself awake at strange time of the night, either due to not being able to settle (like now) or the shift pattern i do at work. No one is online to chat with and i just mooch about on the computer flittering between here, ebay, facebook and twitter, not doing anything on any of the sites! I quite often browse the internet or ebay but just look for the sake of it, for something to do. I do other things also like crochet, knitting, watch tv etc, but sometimes just sit at the computer but not really doing anything.

So i've started off a 'doodle pad' on the forum. Feel free to just witter on about anything and everything. Maybe a thought you just had that doesn't really fit into any other thread, maybe jot down something that makes no sense whatsoever. When you find yourself at that 'fidgety' stage, maybe in a bit of pain and can't settle, maybe just bored or fed up, just pop in here and wittle on all you like!

Big argument going on between Stephen Fry and a 'nobody' on twitter. Nobody called Stephen boring. Stephen suffers with bipola and nobody caught him on a bad day. Alan Davies got involved and started swearing at more 'nobodys', seems everyone got involved. Wouldn't surprise me if it makes the papers!

For those who don't know, bipola is a manic depressive order.

Has anyone tried a slanket (also known as a snuggie)?
It's a blanket with sleeves in it so if your reading,on the computer,eating etc, your hands are free without having to take your arms out from under the blanket! Hubby and i have been thinking about getting a couple, saves turning the heating on just yet!

Cons:
1. being in pain most of the time
2. all the pill taking
3. getting people to understand the pain
4. getting people to understand the emotional side
5. depression
6. getting fed up
7. fatigue
8. sleeping all the time
9. feeling my life isn't my own anymore
10. sometimes can hardly walk

Pros
1. finally being diagnosed after 18yrs
2. still holding down a 40hr week job
3. still have a loving husband
4. an incentive to loose weight
5. still do my hobby of knitting and crochet
6. can still walk most of the time
7. people are a bit more understanding now my 'back pain' has a name
8. i have found this site where i can scream and shout and everybody understands
9. i have made so many new friends (you guys)
10. I AM STILL ALIVE!

Feel free to add your own list

Still haven't been to sleep yet. Going to make myself a cuppa and watch GMTV while finishing off my crocheting.

Dexter Doodle, you feel free to doodle all you want, after all, it's named after you

Hi Carol

I liked your lists, especially the positive one. It has given me an idea for a new thread, because writing things down can help you to focus on the good things.

Keep up the good work.
