Year: 2010

Hi, How’s things with you? Stuff here is… is better than it was. The earlier part of the week was not so good. Oh arse. I was hoping not to write about this type of stuff because it’s all rather negative isn’t it. Rough with the smooth I suppose. 🙂 I think that’s the difficulty with a blog. Okay, they say ‘write about what you know’, or in my case, perhaps what’s going on on Planet Jones. I guess the down side of that is that when it gets rather personal and heavy going, it doesn’t really make for fun reading. But equally, life isn’t all smiles and happy stuff. Some days things don’t go so well and you just […]

Hiya, Let’s start with some good news eh? I’m feeling much better than I did a few weeks ago. I guess, and unlike the song, the drugs do work. 😉 The doctor did warn me that there may be a little dip, due to chemistry, about mid week and I think I’ve hit that yet kept on trucking. Good times. I suppose the cliche is ‘coming out from under a cloud’ and while I know a little about coming out (Ed: groan), for me, once the tablets had kicked in, it was more that I woke up. It was quite startling. I mean, just walking through the supermarket, my memory of what we needed to buy was there; I took […]

Hi, Today has been one of those odd days. Not in a bad way, instead the beginning of something good. Don’t worry, it’s nothing major or life threatening – thankfully. There isn’t an easy way to put this and I’ve spent a while wondering how to put this in words. Hell, I had the same problem when I went to see the doctor. Let’s just dive in eh? Depression. There’s a word that’s both easily banded about and, if the language experts are to be believed, overused too. So over the last 2 years or so, I’ve been okay. I’ve had a few blips – doesn’t everyone? – and I put those down to being tired, stressed from work, not […]

Hi and welcome back! How’s things with you? All good I trust. Me? Well, I’ve had 2 wonderful weeks off on holiday with my family. In case you were curious, we were up in the North West of England and unusually for the UK, the weather remained tip top for 90% of it and despite liberal application of sunblock, I’ve even managed a bit of a tan. Probably not so good on the anti-aging front, but it stops me looking like a milk bottle. Mind you, with all the ice cream and jolly nice food I put away, I was in danger of having a similar shape. Still, plenty of walking and joining the kids in the park seems to […]

Hi, No fashion walk nor deep dive into the trans mindset this time around. Turn up the A/C, crank up the tunes and hand out the colouring pens & paper – we’re off on a jolly. See you all in a few weeks… unless I manage to snaffle some WiFi access on our travels. 😉 Take care, Lynn [ Today’s lyric: Sheena is a Punk Rocker by The Ramones ]

Hi, Earlier in the week… The sun pushed away the clouds to bathe dear Old England in a wonderfully warm summer glow. Not a cloud graced the bright blue sky and it was sunblock o’clock if you wanted to stay outside. It boarded on the slightly too warm at times, but it was great to be outdoors (with the kids) and just enjoy the weather. Mind you, it was also rather good to find a local restaurant with very good air-con too. 😉 Summer-time for someone like me can be a little awkward. It can be too hot for full warpaint + wig in hot weather.  Still, as management would say there are challenges rather than problems. Strange, I see problems […]
