Overdoing it.

Sorry for the lack of a post today, up until now that is. We’ve been at Goodwood Festival of Speed today for the Moving Motorshow, we’re not there over the weekend, but got the tickets for free so decided to go along.

We all had a brilliant day and we’ve just got home. It’s been an incredibly long and tiring day, but it was lovely to spend it with my boyfriend and family.

However, I’m now really suffering as I can’t move and am nearly in tears because my back hurts so much. It makes me so cross and frustrated because I used to love walking and would walk for miles and miles, but now 2 miles is about my limit before either my hips or back start hurting and we walked wayyyyy further than that today. We actually had to leave early because I just couldn’t take any more, every step I took was hurting.

The thing is, I hate ruining other peoples days and although it’s my boyfriend and family and they know I suffer and would more than likely be fine if I said I’ve got to sit this out, I’m stubborn and push myself way further than I probably should in order to not ruin things for other people and then I suffer later on. I know it’s stupid and stubborn, but I feel like everyone else should enjoy themselves and not have to worry about me.

Definitely a case of overdoing it today.

My boyfriend was an utter gentleman and carried my handbag for me when it got too much, even though it was obviously a woman’s bag he didn’t care what he looked like and it reminded me just quite how much I love him. It’s the small things that count eh?

Anyway, we’re back home now and I’m hoping that a heavy dose of all my various painkillers and some sleep will mean I can at least get up tomorrow morning, so here’s hoping, have a good rest of your day wherever you are 🙂
