Now in the week between jobs but got lots to do anyway so not sitting about doing nowt, alas. Ideally a proper holiday (not had one in 3 years) was the hope at this time but not got the cash.

I'm feeling that there's some toxicity in my life I need to cut out. Alas, this will take some people with it. What to do?

Toxitron, yes, toxicity, no. No one has the right to affect your state of mind.

Yeah - life is too short to keep toxic folk around. If someone is harmful to you then you are definitely better off without them Benn.
First day back at work after a week away for me today. It says something about how much more I enjoy my current job that not only was I up and awake before the alarm went off, but I was out of the house early enough that I had a fifteen minute wait for the bus. This is not something that happened in my previous life. There returning to work from a holiday was an uphill struggle, whereas this time I was looking forward to seeing what had come up whilst I was away. As it turned out most of what had come up where external things which solved difficulties that were ongoing - which allowed me to close out a pile of things that had been hanging in abeyance before I went off. Not a bad way to start the working week really.
Got a twenty-minute stroll around the nearby park in after dinner as well. Not a bad way to wind down in the evening.

New car should be ready to pick up at the weekend. Excitement. Also curse the family and dog for increasing in size so I need an estate.

Ralph needs a big holdall for travelling. He could not find one in shops so ordered one online. It turned up...and is tiny. Whoops! It will do as a work bag but...THE QUEST CONTINUES.
Why are simple things always more difficult?

That's where I usually get them but nowt! My time for running around is very limited at the moment so will have to make do with what I have as I have not a lot of time and a lot of Real Life things to organise.
Started going through stuff to repack for storage and see what could be chucked. 4 hours is enough for today and yet it looks like I haven't done anything! Argh. Just as well I started this process early!
Had a bad moment when a pile of tubs came down on me and knocked me over. Unite Constructicons bounced to every corner. They appear to have survived undamaged. Took ages to find TR Skytread wee robot's legs though. On hands and knees looking for tiny brown legs on brown wooden floor.
Sore back so calling it quits for today.

If it'll cheer you up, read the thread title with the theme music to Chucklevision in your head.

Passed last essay of current OU module. Now need to start revising for the exam which concludes the module (at 40% of the mark) on June 10th. Rather stressed by this as A: Life will be VERY busy between now and then with Big Changes and B: Exams do not AT ALL suit my method of learning. Argh.
Trying to sort flat contents before lease runs out into what can be packed for storage and what I need for temp lodgings. This rather overwhelmed me early doors today so I hid in the cinema instead, which was daft. Put a lot of time into it last few days but all I have achieved are piles everywhere and aggravation of physical health issue from all the lifting and handling. Lots of stuff given away or recycled though.
Couple of months from now everything will be fine but at the moment I am struggling somewhat.
