Fibrofox.co.uk - The Website for the South & South  East Essex
 
 
 
AND  FINALLY ..... THE EDITORS BLOG PAGE !
 
 
Hi there,  and welcome to the editors  blog. 
 
My name is  Maggie and Fibrofox was  my concept.
 
 
 
 
 
The Fibro fox site  has  been  running since April  2010 and  I have tried to keep it  up to date as  much as  possible,  I have Fibro myself,  so know the restrictions that this can put on you.
 
Anyone who  fancies  being an  assistant editor, please  let me  know.
 
Also let me  know  if this site has helped  you and  what else you feel could  be added to make it better.
 
A very  warm  welcome  to those who have  just  come across the site,  and  thank you  for the emails you  have  sent.
 
Hopefully  if you can't  make the meetings,  you will still feel part  of this   group.
 
Well Christmas  is  fast  approaching, presents to buy,  and wrap,  trees to put  up (and  take down again)  decorations  in  every room,  I feel quite exhausted thinking about  it !!
 
 
Still I've completed  about  80% of the  present  buying, I do it in  stages  with a  fully able  bodied  person with me  on  each trip  so that they can  carry it all !
 
Putting up the decorations  is the bit  I find frustrating.  I  used to decorate the  living room and the dining room, light s up  everywhere  inside the house and  have  lights  up on  the trees  outside,  all in a  single day.,   now it takes  me  a whole day  just to put the  Christmas tree up,  with individual  branches to slot  in - let alone decorate  it.  But I  won't  be  helped -  this is  one chore  I  will  finish myself - I love Christmas.,  even if  putting up  thedecorations  now  has to be  in stages now.
 
Even cooking Christmas dinner  is not  daunting so long as  you  prepare  as  much as possible  the day before and  don't forget the  list  -  I  write down  absolutely everything I have to cook or defrost,  times  it all takes,  whether  the   stuff is  in the fridge,  the  freezer  or  the  'goodies box'  so  that nothing  can  be  overlooked.
 
I will write a  special 'preparing for Christmas'  article  in December.
 
Take  care, don't overdo it ..
 
 
 
love Maggie xxx
