I had great plans to write the most amazing blog, but I just don't think I can.
Today at work I had to phone a client & give them my email address - it is meganh@hh********. I can't pronounce my h's when I am battling - so trying to get this across took quite a while. She kept asking me if it was megan8@88 - eventually I just packed up laughing & told her I have a speech problem (my quick solution rather than a long explanation) & soon she was giggling along with me. But it still sucks. I really thought I was getting better - not hitting another "thspecial" time in my life.
I pushed myself a little too hard this weekend - visiting friends, a church conference, watching rugby, helping at church & then my brother-in-law's birthday braai.

So, today I am done. My talking is slurred, eyes are blurry & while I am leaning forward typing on my laptop, my head just wants to flop forward completely. I am battling to hold it up completely.
So I am sorry. I will write a long blog soon - hopefully tomorrow or Wednesday.
I am going for a check-up with my amazing doctor on Thursday, so I am praying she will be able to give me some magic cure that will set me straight again.
Until then, I need to go have a long sleep.
I have been reminded again that I cannot push myself the way 'normal' people do - I don't bounce back as quickly & I do need my rest. I sometimes get horribly despondent as I just want to be able to keep up with other people my age - instead I more often than not have to excuse myself & go have a snooze.
But, tomorrow is a new day. It will be better. I have some sexy new shoes from husband & I will go out ready to greet the day with a smile. I will stay strong. I will stay positive. I will see all the good in the day, & not let my slurred talking get in the way of laughing!
Sweet dreams everyone - may tomorrow be a better day for you, & don't forget to smile x
