The Annual Christmas Holiday Camping trip!

All i can say is - bring it on!!!
This is where we go - for 1 week - initially i wasnt too happy about camping - i mean i love camping - in the bush though - not at a ground - id rather be in a villa with my comforts - not hiking to a amenities block while im bursting to go!. Also its noisy and we had bogans at an adjoining site who had no manners what so ever.... But given certain financial restrictions now - we, no, i - have had to re-prioritise.....given i now only have 1 holiday per year - im going to make the most of it.

The bad thing is - at our last holiday - at the same place - i became ill. I woke the 2nd morning there to look like the michelline man - every joint in my body sore and very swollen and basically spent the whole time there in their coldest pool - over the next few months it became progressively worse til i saw a Rheumatologist - who despite being one of the best in his field - and myself undergoing every test known to man - has been unable to determine what i have. It mostly makes my joints swollen - and all my ligaments shorten and all joints fill with fluid - its incredibly painfull and debilitating. And makes life very hard at work too......And i now seem to have been having a relapse for the last month - despite being on prednisone to treat it. So i really hope by christmas im ok - i hate not being able to go to karate or run around wth Craig or Monet. And being on the coast and just sitting around - would be awful! Didnt want this to be a big sob blog - but just a bit of background info - for if you ever see me bemoaning the lack of crafting because my hands have turned into The Claw!
