About Me

My photo
I'm in my 30's, which to me sounds very odd. I only feel like I'm in my 20's and definitely not a grown up. I have spent the last 7 years battling with my health; firstly spending 2 years getting a diagnosis for a tumour on my pituitary gland which was causing Cushings Disease; then spending the rest of my life dealing with a pituitary gland that doesn't work. However, I have a fantastic family and an amazing boyfriend who I live with and adore - they keep me going and inspire me to try to make the most of life and my life in general.

Oh Yay! Project One Renovate The Bird Cage

I have started reading my book and I'm getting into it. I sometimes have difficulty keeping up concentration on a book but the wind-up bird keeps me interested.
I am also very please because since I started writing this blog, I have been back in touch with some more of my friends - some of which hadn't realised how I had been affected by my illness and I think that is just brilliant! I am so glad and very happy.
I'm feeling excited about life again. I have started a small project today. I had bought an old bird cage from a second hand place in Bath a while ago and it was a bit rusty, so today I have begun painting it and making it all pretty again. I am just using a small pot of dulux paint which I found in the cupboard can you believe. It's probably not what the professionals would use but who cares??? Its the right colour - a sort of pale creamy mushroom colour and I intend to add a bit of gold spray on afterward followed by some shiny laquer. I think it will look lovely. Boyf. may not agree but then, who cares what he thinks... it's chic. I am taking photo's as I go along but I'm not sure how to share them with you just yet, I will investigate.

Here are the before pictures and after pictures!
