Discovering New Blogs

Lynn C Schreiber has created a blog hop for discovering new blogs – I’ve only been blogging since September, so I’m in! Following the rules, here are my answers:

Who am I?

I am a working-mum, living with multiple sclerosis. I was diagnosed this year and I seem to have a whole load to talk/get angry/be sad about. Whether you like it or not, life with this diagnosis changes in so many ways, most of which I explore in my blog. Along the way, I was sacked for having MS, so this saga is unfolding too…

Aside from that, I am a normal 30-something gal who likes nothing better than meeting up with friends, exploring/trying out new things. sitting in cafes people watching for hours on end, upcycling things rescued from charity shops and attempting craft projects seen on Pinterest, not always with a great deal of success.

Why did I start blogging?

I wanted to write about living a life with MS. It’s challenges, quirkiness, oddness and downright madness. In light of recent events (being sacked), I now want to let people know that yes, this does still happen in 2012. I want to rail against the injustice of it (and eat a lot of chocolate).

Which post am I most pleased with?

Ooh, too many to mention! Can I choose two?

Doing Housework the MS Way – Simply because it still makes me smile when I read it, and it’s good to see the brighter side of life sometimes.

A Recipe For Changing Your Life – As I was so angry when I wrote this and it was great therapy!

Which post had the most response? 

Get Lost – about the day I was sacked for having MS. It was great to know I had a lot of support out there.

Which blogs do I like reading?
