Happy Birthday Marchpane
Almost a year ago, I started this blog.
A lot has happened since then. At the beginning of this year I posted a blog where I said that in 2006 I wanted things to change. 2005 had been a bad year on so many fronts, and action was required to ensure that 2006 and beyond did not repeat those problems.
I feel now, 9 months later that progress has been made and things are beginning to fall into place. I started 2006 very depressed and unsure of my future, but in many ways I wasn't sure how to tackle my worries, until I realised that I was ill, depressed in fact and that it needed to be tackled before anything else could be addressed. I went for counseling and was put on a course of medication. This not only helped me feel better in the short term, but it gave me a handle on where I was and where I needed to be. It was a superb way to get objectivity, and be able to externalise how I felt and even understand myself and the way I respond better.
Our house is now on the market ready for a move back to London and I start a new job next week. It will be difficult initially, circumstances are not ideal. For the first few weeks I will be staying with friends and family during the working week and returning home at weekends. But it is a step in the right direction and hopefully, in the not too distant future we will both be living in London and starting afresh.
Times are definitely changing, see you back here in another 12 months.....
