Another couple of weeks have passed since I last posted. I should really make more of an effort to be more regular with it. Spent last five days with one of my wife's old friends who came to stay. Nice guy, pretty relaxed which makes good company. Didn't realise that he used to suffer quite badly with acne?! It was nice to hear some suggestions as to things I could try out. Whilst I truely don't enjoy talking about my personal issues in that respect, it felt good to have an additional person on board that at least now knows that I struggle sometimes in one way or another. Will look at drinking min amount of water daily and multi-vitamins. BTW smokes too much but hey I'm not one to talk. Won't put myself into the category of ex-smokers who all of a sudden start judging those that do. Far from it.....each to their own really. (Nice to see my wife seems to have cut down a bit since I stopped though).
Jogging is going great now as keeping it together and getting out every other day. Not suffering from any more problems with my knees (since calming down and wearing strap) and the actual running seems to get easier every time I go. I do however, seem to be going out in the early evening instead of early morning. It's ok but preferable to do morning rather than run around 'the estate' in the darkness. All I gotta work on now with regards to any weight loss is food situation. Still happy to snack on crap here and there. Wife and I (occasionally) serve up quite big portions mainly as well as be both have giant appetites. This obviously isn't going to help matters so need to adjust somehow.
Study not going great :( What is wrong with me? I am still really eager but have this fear of upsetting my wife by wanting to study most nights. I think I'm going to have to do something like this if I am gonna pass! End of march for first exam is looking more and more unlikley unless I can improve on this drastically.
Bad news with regards to the four bed place we wanted.:( It went to someone else who was simply in a position to buy. Can't say i'm that surprised really. No viewing at our place for 3? maybe 4 weeks now and it's not going to get much better now they have started digging up round the back of the property as well as the front! Looks fucking awful!... To top that off the news reveals that property prices are now crashing as well so might be worth holding off for a bit? I don't know really. All I know is that I don't want my son growing up anything like the kids that we heard down the park today with him. Tell me I'm getting old but these kids were fucking this fucking that at each other at quite an early age! Typical of this area I suppose. Hopefully we'll have a bit of good fortune with moving.
Back to work tomorrow having recently found out that we have a minimum of 18 months left in our current position. Seems generous really since the work is so dry. Gives you more time to study I suppose and when the work does come along you feel like getting stuck in but weird all the same. Glad I get as much freedom to go home early when I need to though. Nice to spend more time with my family when I can.
My wife has been in touch with Relate (as she is far better at blagging) and talked about the "suggested" rate per session which they seem quite happy to reduce, thank goodness....gulp. With any luck we can get cracking on that asap. We seem to be getting on ok right now but still the underlying problems remain. (more detail another time)
Bed now beckons so off now. Will be posting again sooner I hope.:)
