“If ever I would stop thinking about music and politics”

Uncategorized

Or more accurately, gender politics….. not that I’m particularly politically active. I guess I’m just not 100% content with the current two party system. 🙂 Sh**! I’m the LibDem option of gender! 🙂 Too late to say hi? Hello, it is then. It has been a rather eventful week and pretty much all in a good way. Well, mostly, but we’ll come to that later on. Stop Press! After last week’s dysphoric disco of distress I would like to report that I had a very good day today. That may not mean much in the great scheme of life, but to Yours Truly, it means a great deal. There was no rush to school – it’s the Easter holidays – and the […]

“A m*****f***ing chain saw, what!!”

Uncategorized

Gah! Seems I’ve moved on from ‘meh’. What’s this two posts in as many days? Well, strike while the distress is hot, I say. These last two days have been less than ideal. Not that anything bad has happened: my loved ones are all safe, there’s no Great Disaster looming….. well, I hope not. I know Kim’s thinking about kicking off, but really, just calm it down chap, okay? It’s not going to end well and really, a war? C’mon. Save the big talk and sabre rattling for another day. Turn the nuke plant off – unless you’re running the country’s AC with it – and have a look at Dorothy Perkins’ new stock. You’ll feel better for it. 🙂 […]

“Don’t like to work, I just like to dream”

Uncategorized

Hello one and all, So we’re the second week through the World Sports Day competitions. Team GB have done very well – or so I’ve heard via the news and chats with the Ever Lovely Mrs Jones. You know me and sport, walking is about my limit – maybe a bit of cycling – but watching it? Meh. Not that I’m not dead chuffed that our athletes have tried really hard. Anyways, with the sport being on and Wee Man’s new found enjoyment of computer games, I’ve been catching up on my reading. I think I’ve finished off three books and the reading’s been a pleasant break from the usual activities of web surfing, Facebooking, blogging and all round techno […]

“’cause she new what she was doin,
when she told me how to walk this way”

Uncategorized

Hiya, As way of a change, this week I’ve been away on a course. Not the tucked away in a hotel type of thing, but just away from the cut & thrust of the office. This time around it was a change from the technical and on to matters of a team focus. I found the whole thing interesting, but I think that was mainly due to the people I was with (lots of new people for all over the firm) and all the conversational stuff that went on. People swapping stories and life experiences, that type of thing. Anyhoo, during one coffee break, one attendee  mentioned that she’d been looking to study counselling, but given the travel required (the degree […]

You took my light, you drained me down,
But that was then and this is now,
Now look at me

Hello, How’s things with you? Hopefully all rather good. It is – at least at the time of writing – the weekend and for some of us, that’s two days away from work. Time for you the Jones Massive to duck the treadmill of modern life and kick back into the slow lane. With luck, there’ll be a spot of lunch, a few walks in the park and if the weather stays good, maybe a bike-ride too. Yay for spring! Cheer up, Mrs This week saw the last of my anti-miserablist sessions, or as the NHS like to call it: CBT. The session was fairly brief, just a summary of what we’d talked about and a bit of the obligatory […]

“But a girl she doesn’t live by only rock ‘n roll and brew”

Uncategorized

Hello one and all, It’s been busy-busy-busy this week. The type of busy that requires three words and two hyphens for emphasis. Hell, any busier and I’d have to throw in an exclamation mark! Oh, there it is. 🙂 Yeah, so work; rather frantic, but in a good way. Lots of things done, items ticked off the list and folk genuinely helped…. which is why I feel I’m there. All good stuff. Therapy time again last Monday – and this coming Monday for that matter – and it went fairly well. We talked briefly about how I’d felt since the last meeting and I did my best to be open and honest. Basically, I felt like sh** after the last one 🙂 […]
