Evening all.

Well this weekend was interesting as it was our first weekend in our little caravan.  I’ve done camping before as a kid and with my family but being in the caravan now, I didn’t knot realise how much we have adapted things to help me on a daily basis.

I had a spare pod coffee machine at home which has ended up in the caravan with me speculating that I would not use it -boy was I wrong!!

I actually ended up using it to make coffee along with other hot drinks because there was no need for me to fill a kettle then lift a heavy, boiling kettle to make a drink. It was literally cup underneath turn to hot water and machine did it all for me.

The same goes to other gadgets purchased for the caravan to help mainly my husband put the awning up as I’m not able to extend the awning poles and then tighten them up. The same goes with putting things we have at home in the caravan – mobile Internet,  fire stick in TV,  easy to use cups, a step to get out the caravan which is more sturdy and wider than old steps.

The adjustments made so far are little things whigh you don’t realise you have done so that you can enjoy your holiday more. I’ve also started doing the adult colouring books which do help taking my mind off things, can’t colour for very long though due to holding pencils but now and again helps.

To be fair this holiday has been tough though as I am currently off my methotrexate until beginning of April due to daughter having chicken pox. Due to my illness I am a high risk at catching other illnesses so for precaution my rheumatologist has taken me off methotrexate until my blood work comes back. I know being off and letting my immune system fight anything off on its own is good but having sore joints and being constantly inflamed makes me realise how much I depend on my medication.

Happy Wednesday everyone xx
