Had lunch with a mate of mine today. Haven’t seen her for a few months because of work and the play and my wife being sick for the past few months but it was great to just catch a up and just gasbag on for a couple of hours about stuff that’s happened and share our successes. Did u happen to see any of the cricket today? The glory days of Australia being #1 are well over..
We need to clone Warney, McGrath, Gilly, Haydos, Langer and Ponting LOL
Tried to stay away from the cricket: I don’t need any more negativity in my life. 🤣🤣 |

Well, it looks like we're having my bathroom redecorated this week.
Outside of Sundays, it's been a long while since I've been up at 8.30 in the morning.... Zzzzzzz

I wish I didn’t have so many self esteem issues! I can’t seem to get started on anything (other than a 1 to 2 hour walk) until 2 or 3 in the afternoon, because of my ADHD and time blindness. I don’t know what it is but I just can’t seem to get to work on anything until 3pm! And then I feel guilty about it ! Does anyone else have a similar problem? I also had an annoying interaction with my aunt today, she’s in me and my mom’s bubble and we walk with her every evening. I love her but she always somehow REALLY pushes my buttons! We were talking about receiving unemployment benefits and she said “ To do your your writing and things you enjoy now because when you get a job again you won’t be able to do them anymore.” I talked a little bit about this on the Pet Peeves thread but, this really made me feel like I was going to explode! I absolutely hate it when people try to trivialize the things I want to do in life like they are temporarily amusements and tell me how I have to conform to some boring job and give up my dreams. I normally try to stay happy and calm around her because she’s highly sensitive like me but even more so and she sometimes bursts into tears at the slightest criticism but this comment of hers really made me angry, upset and depressed all at once. I did start to yell and argue with her luckily my mom stopped us before it got too heated and we were calm and happy after that. I guess it got to me because even though I try to stay positive sometimes I feel like a total failure who’s never going to make it in life creatively. I have always had really difficult self esteem issues throughout my life due being bullied a lot/ being embarrassed by my learning disability, my odd ideas, and interests. I try to not let comments like the one my aunt made bother me, I know she love me and means well, but discouragement makes me feel even worse on top of the pandemic and my self esteem issues. I’m not going to let it get me down to much because “telling yourself you’re crap is a waste of time just get on with things”. On the bright side I did slightly more writing today and started a drawing, so that is something! 🙂 Sorry for the long rant! Sometimes I just need to get things out of my system. Love you guys 💙💙 It doesn’t matter what time you get to work on creative things so long as you get to work on them. And your aunt is right about one thing: this is a great time to take advantage of not being at work. I have a sister like her: she worries excessively about everything that my other siblings and I are doing largely because she missed out on taking those chances herself due to her own illness. It took me a lo-oo-oo-ong time to realise that she was worrying about what she missed out on and wanted us to think about staying secure rather than risk what she didn’t do. It might be coming from insecurity rather than nastiness. Thanks I needed that 😊 |

Just been advised by the big scary Government work lawyers I may be off to Court again in the very near future/or best case scenario just have to sign a Declaration/Affidavit. I prefer the latter as I don't like dressing up at the best of times HAHA  UPDATE: Just received another call. I was told I could either swear on a bible or "affirm". I chose affirm immediately. |

Hello again.
I was taken by the dignity and humility of all who took part in the ceremony. I really wish all our American forumites of whatever political belief better days ahead. We in the UK, unfortunately, are stuck with Prime Clownfish, Mr Johnston and an opposition who seem to have gone into hibernation.
Take care, stay safe and hopefully enjoy more competent and inclusive leadership.

Second day in a row I woke up too early after too little sleep due to intense itching. I stopped taking the antihistamine cetirizine 3 days ago. Turns out cetirizine withdrawal is a thing...  |

Some bad news :-(
Just got an email from Simon/Timelord007 as we chat off this forum regularly.. He has been dealing with his Covid battle, unfortunately the prognosis doesn't look good for 1 of his parents.. He wanted me to pass on the message he will be "offline" for a while while he deals with this.
:-(

Add me to the well wishes to Simon and his family, fingers are tightly crossed his parent finds a way past this bloody virus and without sounding too much like a broken record - please remind him we're all here if he needs us to be.
