Best or Darkest Days
And these could be the best or darkest days The lines we walk are paper thin This line from So Close by Andrew McMahon in the Wilderness (his latest single, which is awesome by the way) is pretty accurate these days. I don’t write about politics so I’m not going to go on about it…

An active year!
I’ve learned to never worry too much if plans (or I) fall apart. Monday night, in the last hours of freedom before returning to work Tuesday, I literally fell. Slipped on the stairs at home and down I went! Thankfully I’m fine, I managed to get up with a couple of swollen bits and some…

A New Year!
That’s going to be my 2017 in a nutshell. I’m taking it a little bit at a time to manage my goals. I’ve mapped out January and February in terms of exercise: Insanity Max:30 (thanks to Hubby for the Christmas gift!) should take care of most of my exercise (and help me get into my…

2016 in two words: FUCK YOU
This has been an absolute shit storm of a year. Thankfully the end is in sight! I’m not sure how much better 2017 is looking if I’m totally honest. But there’s at least a 50/50 chance it’s better than this year has been. It could, of course, get worse. (President Trump? Brexit? Sigh.) Either way…

Sitting, Waiting, Wishing
My last update was a bit dreary wasn’t it? It feels like forever ago! I’m glad to say I’m feeling somewhat better now. I had some advice from my cousin after my last post; she recommended B12 so I started taking a time release tablet and it made a massive difference! (Thanks cuz!) I’m going…

Feeling lost
It’s been a while. I’m not going to say I’m back now, but I want to be. Yes, there’s a difference between those things. I haven’t felt well for a couple months now. And for once, it’s not related to my mental health, although it’s now starting to affect it. I managed to get a…

What are you doing?
How do you spend your free time? I play games, read, watch telly. All the usual stuff. I’m inclined to say I watch maybe too much telly, but there are so many good things on. That’s no excuse though. I know. So what am I doing? Books I’m always reading a couple of things at…

Being supportive to those with depression
For some people it can be difficult to understand what someone with depression goes through. I get that, it’s hard sometimes to empathise with others when you haven’t experienced what they are dealing with yourself and that can be tough for friends and family of someone dealing with depression or any mental illness. My biggest…
