Flying the diarys today.....

Keep battling through the shi.te. Keep talking to the swans. Keep connected with friends/ family. And stay connected to the good thoughts and the fortunate experiences life has afforded you. Remove the Un from unlucky

Fantastic youtube clip...

Its all simple afterall in finding our own Utopia. As we had it all along, now its a case of moving from the eye of the storm...

Everything spirals up....Its about Energy..

Just been going through one of the worst phases of my life. Physically and emotionally hit rock bottom and having sifted through the detritus of my life for meaning, the choices are to stay on my back in the gutter staring at the stars or the get to my knees and start the climb back up the kerb.
Emergency op didn't work so more or less bedridden for past few weeks, only time I escaped was to sit vacantly staring at a machine feeding notes, lost my job as being unable to work I am deemed incompetent, only a state pension to live on and one expense after another as the storms bring down my fences and reek havoc on my houseboat, friends and family all living their own lives, Mother in hospital now and all not understanding I am no longer the resilient, independent person that raced to their rescue in times of need.
s***t poor me, poor fu.cking little me.
Doctor angry that I think I am some kind of super power and prescribed anti depressants, we will see.
s***t happens, life's a b***h and then we die, Dignitas has beckoned the past couple of weeks.
s***t happens and then we live. Reasons to be cheerful 1, 2, 3, and so so many more.

Tap into your cumbrian roots DF.

Wishing you well. Talk, you know it makes sense...

Hello my dear friend

Latest news pierced my heart a little ....and you slipping is the last of my worries!
Struggling to express myself but all i can say - be kind to you. S*it storms will pass, they always do.
You are more in control than you think. You don't have to stay in the gutter, you can choose another path going forward. .not as rosy maybe and few twigs and stones on a way, but the clear picture in horizon nevertheless.
Here with you girl!! Holding your hand and staying by your side unconditionally. That's the least i can do...sun will shine again ☺
Let it in your heart, don't run away from those warm rays

Thank you both.

Can't sleep which is crazy when so exhausted but thought swirling. Spent yesterday with young man working on my boat who unknowingly put things in perspective for me. So young he has been ill all his life which he knows is limited and lost his best friend to suicide yet he works and makes the most of every single day. Made me ashamed and led to me waking in the night and appreciating how lucky I am to have experienced so much throughout my life that when I try to compile a bucket list there are very few wishes that have not already been fulfilled.

So with the help of the angels on here who fluttered by and this young stranger I am building a strong ladder reaching well up out of the gutter, back into reality, the birds are awakening on the riverbank, the sun will rise again.

Hai DF.

When your heads swirling like the storm, sleep doesn't come easy hai! I've been trying the oil burner and valerian SleepEezy tablets and some nights they seem to work with the most colourful of dreams but it does mean pushing yourself as much as possible during the day using the physical energy up as much as possible.

I'm sure you've climbed higher mountains than any kerb. You've got to much in you and around you to be in a gutter. So begone bad thoughts.

The sun goes down. The Sun goes Up.

Morning df

I am glad you have navigated yourself back to the recovery room, the door revolves as you know.

Like me you had to find the bottom, the point of no return, nothing lays ahead apart from a brick wall for you to smash your head into and behind the brick wall addiction built to keep you from seeing life.

The one behind you can be torn down, you can break through it and take control of your own life.

The other option will be to continue punishing yourself, to keep repeating the same action, live in the ever decreasing circle that is continued gambling.

I will you to break through that wall behind, to take all the help out there and rebuild your own wall between you and addiction.

As ever you know where to find me 24/7 unconditionally.

Duncs stepping beside you always forward never back.

Once again thank you for kind thoughts and rescue remedy. I do take valerian sometimes as much prefer herbal to prescription meds as they are gentler on the body without the fuzzy feeling the next day.

Finding the strength to head up north to visit my mother in hospital so will be offline for a few days as only have a rubbish phone at the moment but safety nets in place as a limit on my card and no cash with me. Last time I went out had a puncture and cost

me £95 for new tyre so fingers crossed the bad luck fairy is taking a break.

My daughter's birthday today, geez where do the years go and time is so precious, people are so precious. Would love to write my life story entitled - 'Random acts of Idiocy' as I have risked losing so much.
