Life Stuff: Dying my hair!

There's something I've  been meaning to do for a long time now. Something I loved a lot and never got around to. Something I'd not done in about 4 years. Lucky for me my lovely friend Dinni is incredibly gifted at dying hair (I've long forgotten the ways).

SPOONIELIFE: When I feel normal


I'm sure you've heard of Chronic or Invisible Illnesses. But have you head of the Spoon Theory?

The quick jist is that it's like each action costs a spoon. To a lot of people getting up seems like one action, right? You get up dressed and start the day, right?

SPOONIELIFE: One week progress, day by day

Remember this post?

This is a follow up, as promised. I will outline day by day, at the end of each day to show you guys how this is working for me. Depending on how this goes, I may keep this up as a monthly blog with a week-by-week on progress.

Join me under the jump-cut for a day by day.

SPOONIELIFE: One week of small, nerdy changes

You all know by now about my Endometriosis and #Spoonie status. Yes I'm a young mother with endometriosis (I will make a bigger post on this later), skeleto-muscular abnormalities, chronic fatigue syndrome and IBS-like symptoms.

With all this comes a lowered immune system, fatigue, constant pain, low mood, anxiety and a feeling like a hook being ripped through my stomach thanks to lovely things called internal adhesions.

While waiting for an MRI my only way to manage is physiotherapy and "resting". Not possible as a single mum! So I've decided to make a few small changes and see how it affects me. I'll outline the things I'm doing every day thanks to the convenience and nagging of smartphones.
If you want you can join in with me and see how it effects you!
Thanks to these apps we can even get some healthy support and competition going.

Summer break!

What can I say, there's not much time for writing when your 4 year old is off school for the summer!

I'll be taking a brief break from posting blogs, and in the meantime will be watching more anime and getting things set up for a new, improved review system. With spoilers included!

Also on the cards is possible affiliation with several Japanese goods so I can have ads tailored to the newest anime releases! Aaaand I recently became admin of the Greater Belfast Otaku Society which works hard to unite and entertain the local community!

There's a lot of exclamation points in this post...

I think that about wraps it up and the tl;dr is that I'm taking a break to build up some rich, meaty animu content with whatever stolen moments I can find.

I hope everyone has a thoughroughly enjoyable spring break, feel free to read past entries if ya'll want.
Enjoy your summer!
In the meantime, be sure to check out the following for (hopefully) more up to date things!

Obligatory First Post

Hello there blogging world!

You may recognise me if I use the name Wotaku Mummy, which I blogged under back from 2010 till 2012. After that I became Wotutu!

After 2012 I become more involved in my local anime/gaming/convention community and began to regularly volunteer at QUB Q-con.
