30th December 2013 to 5th January 2014
We celebrated the start of a new year this week which was sort of fun. The problem has been that I cannot sleep, I am taking my Grumpy minty medicine (steroid) and this month it has completely disrupted my sleep. I cannot sleep at all day or night. We've had problems before but it is normally one night towards the end of my dose, not so bad.
Because I can't sleep and because of chicken pox we have mostly been avoiding people and busy places, especially play grounds and fun places like the cinema. Mummy and I are flying to England next week and Mummy doesn't want me to get sick when I'm there because our visit could be long instead of quick.
I couldn't sleep and because we were at home on our own Mummy and Daddy decided to see the new year in at Casemates, the main square which was lots of fun. I like the band a lot and there were lots of people all dressed up. I also liked the fire works for a bit then they got too loud and bright. When we got home there were still lots of fire works going off and I didn't like it. I still couldn't sleep especially with the noise so I watched a DVD in bed, something Mummy never lets me do.
After New years Mummy and I had to get ready for England and mostly started cleaning, packing and putting the Christmas decorations away. I can't wait for Christmas to come again, I'm excited about going to England and seeing my family but I'm also sad to be saying good bye to Toni because she wont be here when I get back she will be at university.
Mum Says: this month has been particularly hard witht the steroids interfering with Alice's sleep, it means that we are all tired and having to deal with very emotional outbursts from Alice. Not a good end to 2013, but an end. Alice went into total melt down on New Years Eve and we are uncertain of we count it as the last tantrum of 2013 or the first of 2014. Still we've put 2013 behind us and are looking forward to 2014. We wish you all a very happy new year!
