Been really quiet again on our blog...I would like to say there was a glam reason for this, been on holiday, been out every night at Champagne launch parties every night etc. etc....However that would be a big fat lie - we have been here all along but just too tired at the end of the day to contemplate much more than collapsing onto the sofa.......

We did go to Bestival - and had a great time. It was for me however also a very stark reality check. I could not walk on the hills nor in the crowds. I needed a wheelchair to get around and there was also a realisation that its always going to be that way, I have done a great job getting back on my feet but sometimes I am just to stubborn - I will try to walk to somewhere that I can be wheeled to in 5 minutes, walking takes me 40 and I arrive exhausted!!

This realisation has led to some changes this week as well. I have been going into work everyday now on the dreaded Northern Line. I enjoy the Independence this gives me and being in the office. It is however tiring, the accessibility of London's Victorian underground system for those with mobility issues is appalling. I arrive at my desk feeling like I have run a marathon, work all day and then run another to get home. Unsurprisingly I have begun to feel this week that I couldn't cope. But giving up is not really an option either. Finally yesterday I struck a deal to work from home 2 days a week. This should hopefully stop me being so tired all the time, and leave me a bit more time for the truly important things in life - like this blog!!!
