General life update

Well, this year hasn't really gone as planned. I had hoped to be in secure employment, to have taken an overseas holiday, and have moved to a larger/nicer flat. Unfortunately none of these things have happened

*hugs you* I don't have all the answers - and anyway I'm not going to try to solve all your problems in a comment form on LiveJournal - but I'm more than happy to talk about whatever you want in person. *sends more hugs*

Thanks hun. I will probably be feeling an awful lot better once the financial situation sorts itself out, which should *fingers crossed* be quite soon now.

Would love to have you over for games some night if you're interested ...

[valkyriekaren]

Thanks, that might be nice. This week is all domestic chores to keep the landlord's face straight though.

Sorry you're feeling so stressed and down, you and Simon are still in my thoughts xo

I've just rejoined OKC after deleting my profile last year when I started dating someone I knew from the metal scene here. But that didn't work out and so six months later I gave in and created a new one. Slim pickings so far though.

Thanks hun. Same goes for you - I know you've been having a difficult time with your family lately.

I don't know what to say (nothing useful, I am sure), but I have to hope that if you keep keepin' on things will eventually okay.

But you seem more social than me. Keep at that if you can. It's damn hard to come back from Not Going Out. Don't let low energy levels and poor body image get you down. As far as I have determined, that's a bad spiral to get into.

Sending big hugs hon, it's been a tough few years for a lot of us, but I promise it can get better, and you've weathered all the disaster with amazing resilience, even when you've felt awful.

I'm only just down the road, and spend a lot of time being broke too, so please do come and hang out sometime? I was planning to ask a small group of dancers/goths/nice people to Kaff bar in Brixton for post-work drinks on Friday - they do two pints of Amstel for a fiver, so we needn't break the bank. Up for it?

Thanks hun. I'm afraid with my landlord coming round on Saturday I will need to be spending Friday night on domestic chores.
