Bio
I have been working in healthcare for many years in various roles. After working in this field for 14 years I decided to do my Adult Nursing Diploma and worked for 4 years as a registered nurse before developing ME/CFS following shingles. I found that this illness not only effected my physical abilities but also affected my cognitive skills which meant I no longer felt confident working as a nurse so I voluntarily took myself off the NMC register and after 9 months off sick from work I returned as a health care assistant working just two days a week.
Previously I was an active person who enjoyed modern jive dance. But I had to develop new interests which took less energy and on bad days not too much thinking!!
So after fumbling around with different crafts: knitting, crochet (could not grasp it!) sewing, beading, card making and currently developing an interest in scrap booking and paper design I realised I may be able to share what I've learnt with others and show it is possible to have a life though very different after ME/CFS.
I am hoping to take my interest in the apocalypse (half joking/half serious!) and mix it with my interest in scrapbooking to develop something solid, informative but fun. I have lots of stuff on Pinterest but if the apocalypse does happen I won't be able to rely on that!! During my research I found there was not a lot of apocalypse scrapbook material out there unless we're talking zombies and I'm not planning for that!! Therefore I needed to learn how to make my own paper and having cracked the basics this is where blog starts........
