Thankfully, the meds I'm now on are brilliant & I don't suffer much at all (touch wood!) apart from the occasional flare-up; but, I still use crafting as therapy if I'm feeling angry, p**sed off, low, stressed - whatever - it never lets me down & never fails to lift me - what would we do without our crafting, eh?<br />Do hope you spent a better night & that you get your dry socket sorted a.s.a.p.<br />take good care,<br />Liz M xxxLiz Maitlandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18186094824390601691noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5012372152948410381.post-29406408216620030352016-07-21T09:58:01.652+01:002016-07-21T09:58:01.652+01:00Morning all didn't do any groovi-ing last nigh...Morning all didn't do any groovi-ing last night as just needed to sleep hugs for today might do a little crafting later xxxsheilahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03224468884045534214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5012372152948410381.post-49291507192679799932016-07-21T09:56:07.684+01:002016-07-21T09:56:07.684+01:00Morning Brenda hugs for you and daisy enjoy colour...Morning Brenda hugs for you and daisy enjoy colouring xxxsheilahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03224468884045534214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5012372152948410381.post-27629948836988606832016-07-21T09:50:54.601+01:002016-07-21T09:50:54.601+01:00Morning pam about the tens machine I tried one a l...Morning pam about the tens machine I tried one a long time ago when I first went to pain management it didn't help me at all but with CFS it's a different pain but pain management lent me one to try so didn't need to buy one .glad to know your back pain has been a bit easier the past couple of days sending gentle hugs xxxsheilahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03224468884045534214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5012372152948410381.post-7398432875343312552016-07-21T09:36:58.167+01:002016-07-21T09:36:58.167+01:00Hi Barbara,
