(Untitled)
I'm not in a good place right now in that I'm struggling more and more to push any negativity to one side and bounce back. Usually I'm pretty good at grinding down and pushing myself through any low spots (or ignoring them) but I think my mental strength has finally taken a pounding.
Probably not helped with having no positives to keep me ticking ( Read more... ) -
As I have nowhere else to put this
It's been 21 months since I've posted here as I was reading my last post earlier this morning. As I'm having a lower type of day than normal, thought I'd take one of those online depression tests. Result (not a "real" diagnosis) as follows:

Cooker buying
Why am I hovering and not hitting the buy button right now on a new cooker.
It's not the spending money that's bothering me, it's something to do with committment to having a new cooker when I've had the last one for 16 years. There's a weird taste about replacing it when it's not completely dead yet. -

Sunday 25th January
I am creeking of the ouchies today from a busy Saturday night. Back to Birmingham for my brother's fiance's birthday get together. Tony kindly let me stay again and in return I lent him Darron for the evening for their beer drinking. Started the evening with a nice steak dinner at the Briar Rose, joined my host for a few drinks around the local ( Read more... ) -
Friday 23rd January
Work has been busy again and I have quite a list of things that I would like to cover that I can't find adequate time to sit and do. They would definitely help me out organisational wise for the long term. I've bought some filing home for the evening that just needs to be transferred over ( Read more... ) -
Thursday 22nd January
This morning I was late to work as I took a family member to the doctors to get the results from the postmortem of the death back in August. I can't believe it's taken 5 months to complete. Hopefully this will give some closure, even though it's difficult ( Read more... ) -
Wednesday 21st January
I was able to listen to lastfm today at work and found myself having a listen to Radiohead's In Rainbows. Despite many people making comments that Radiohead is music you would slash you wrists to (although the same could be said about early Coldplay), I've actually found this album to be instantly good to listen to ( Read more... ) -
Tuesday 20th January
Another busy day at work with quiet evening at home. I'm sure there was more content to the day but I'm writing this after. I remember watching the Big Chef Little Chef part 2 and wondering why this series of shows really needed to be 3 hours long in total. Surely there should have been some way of condensing it ( Read more... ) -
Monday 19th January
Following work I headed to the gym. Although I'm still being cautious with my workout as I don't seem to have that much energy in this cold weather. I've stayed the same weight in a week, but that's to be expected. Not surpisingly really when tonight I had sausages to use up and combined that with beans, eggs and garlic mushrooms ( Read more... )
