    I’m sorry for clearing all the brambles on the land . We were great foragers . Mushrooms for tea , blackberries for jam , crab apples for tarts . Though yeah July is a bit early

    My first day off and I find myself sitting on the balcony at 0630 with a Tanzanian coffee. It’s so quiet here with only the sound of the birds.

    Ugh humidity climbing and the sky is now obscured. When they talk about saunas being good for you, I don’t think that they meant this :):)

    @thomil hope you are feeling OK, how did you fall off the bike?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,218 ✭✭✭✭smurfjed


    My truck failed the NCT :(:(:( The paint colours have faded more on the plastic fairings than on the body and in a couple of places the paint is worn. I laughed when they pointed it out to me, but they said “system”. So this means that i cant sell it or reregister it until its done, but i can still drive as its not required :)

    Watching the last episodes of a cancelled show I'm really into, I am ridiculously annoyed already

    Homeside here, been out of it all day after not getting much sleep. The arm is getting better but the night was painful, even with painkillers. I’ll probably call in sick tomorrow as well, just to be on the safe side…

    Regarding your question, smurfjed, I lost control of my rental bike when the rear wheel slid away while going around a corner. Attempts to stop or get off ended with me getting my feet tangled up with the pedals and bike frame before stumbling over said frame and landing on my knees and my arms taking the brunt of the impact.

    Good luck trying to figure me out. I haven't managed that myself yet!

    Just getting dinner now. Busy, why do I keep signing up for overtime?. Oh yeah, reality 😔



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,218 ✭✭✭✭smurfjed


    Morning time, sitting here watching a swarm of bugs flying over my trees.

    Off to the beach for the next 4 days, thanks to BLUE we have to rent a villa rather than a smaller apartment, but it’s about the same cost of an Irish hotel room.

    That long room is crying out for a blast of mr sheen and socks to slide about in.…

    Bedside here, my 'flu is now abating thankfully but I was hardly able to hold down any food for the past few days so I have probably lost a bit of weight.

    I think I am spiralling into depression as I have zero interest in watching the Olympics this year which I normally love to watch.

    Zero interest in doing anything except sleep.

    Pace yourself, lean on your fella, lean on us, take your space and take whatever support you need.. If that sounds like a lot of take, think about how much you give, have always done and will do so much more of, again, we're here and there are so many more for you, not against xx Accept the care and compassion and also accept my apologies for being this way on an open forum. If you want me to delete, please feel free, no harm at all.

    Agree with everything Grem has said. I will just add that sometimes you have to roll with your emotions and work through them. Also get a walk in the open air every day, even if you don't feel like doing it. I find appreciating the simple things you see if you can walk in a park or rural area can be uplifting, even for a few minutes.
