Welcome Pain Pals!
I have had various personal posts floating around my head, but am struggling with the key board as am on day 6 of a shoulder dislocation! Fellow bendies will understand…..everything in my shoulder is so stretched that it just keeps slipping out! Avoiding A&E as I know how hard they pulled it last time to relocate it and I think it just makes it worse in EDS as this stretches already stretched ligaments & muscles!! So a sling and rest it is….must say my neck, shoulder and arm feel pretty tired, in fact I do.
Enough of that now as I just want to acknowledge that 2 fellow bloggers have nominated me for awards recently and I haven’t followed through..yet! The wonderful Bipolar Cat at High Risk blog has nominated me for The Mystery Blogger Award and the equally wonderful Terri at Reclaiming Hope has nominated me for the Sunshine blogger award – thank you ladies so much and I promise that I will post properly! I think that being recognised for the little that I do in such a massive blogging community is quite overwhelming and humbling.
You all know that I love connecting with other bloggers, meeting a making new friends, and there is no better way than linking with new posts. So for our usual Monday slot – sit back, relax and enjoy some inspiring posts – varying from a review for beautiful eyshadows to organising ourselves as bloggers to a medical text about proprioception!

Yes, I like that idea – although the app on the ipad did tell me I was being rude once when I cursed at it….wonder if it would do the same?? Ha, ha, ha. Just found your coffee post – great to connect! C x
