Going to a party tonight, not enough spoons left.

[spidey]

Used up quite a few spoons today (see spoon theory) making a huge spiced apple crumble and an eton mess for my friend's 50th at the school tonight. My hand and elbow hurt after peeling all the apples and I had to have a break for goodness sake.!

I will get a lift down to the school from lovely hubby to deliver the food and stay a little while, prob an hour. I find I can't stand socialising so much these days.

It's a shame that I have a flare up right now. At the last party a couple of years ago I got on my eightes get up (lime green legwarmers and fake pink hair extensions) and danced for a few hours. (Paid the next day)

I have my daiughter(35) and my grandson (12) here. They do not live together so they meet here. They both talk at once all the ******** time. Right now they are watching a film so I have time to write.

Leftover cottage pie in oven for tea so not much to do before I go and put some reasonably clean clothes (sniff and shake) brush my hair and head out.

It's a seventies disco for heaven's sake. I lived the seventies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh lordy, now I can remember things in blocks of thirty years. How did that happen.

Hello spidey, sounds like you need a lie down before going out, I am exhausted just knowing what you've done already today. I would be heading for the bedding, but yay for you, going ahead and joining in. Take it easy though, easier said than done, I know, but I hope you have a lovely time. Foggy x

Thanks Foggy. I just got in and can barely walk!!! You put a brave face on, try and jiggle and sway to the music a bit but a couple of hours of standing in a school hall drinking lemonade and having conversations with people you only see once in a while is more tiring than people without fibro can appreciate. It was a lovely party for my friend though and my puddings were much demolished by the time I left. Am now wedged in chair with cushions waiting for gaba and tramadol to take effect!!!!

Party was great but was in the red with spoons after!!!! My apple crumble went down well and my friend had the best 50th birthday.
