Guess its time
Been a while since I last frantically hammered the keys of my Blackberry on a train or platform to let all you spectators know what's going on with me, so here goes.
Last few weeks have been pretty lazy if I'm honest. With mums anniversary of passing, came a serious drop in interest in life in general. Letting things build up, dates to pass and bills to remain unpaid. I guess its just been a time of adjustment for me.
I have had 2 sittings on the tribute tattoo to mum now and its looking fantastic. Other than that I have done nothing, honest, NOTHING! Not even trained.
This week however the wind seems to be hitting my sails a little more and the energy is returning. Enthusiasm to get things sorted, positive thoughts towards all things outstanding, and determination to get back on track.
I am planning to start training again next week, which sadly coincides with the start of the next round of building works at home, but I can't let that be a distraction or excuse not to train.
Other things I need to do are ordering dog supplies, cancel my Virgin mobile account seeing as someone decided not to pay for it anymore, cheers for that! And other things like updating my Virgin media account.
Aaah so much to do but I'm in the right zone now, so here goes.
Thanks as ever to the people who have stuck around. To anyone who is a little down right now, fear not, it will get better, eventually.
Right time to get on a train, and enjoy thos glorious sun on the platform. Have a great day.
Regards

Here come the floors
Well the foundations are as good as done, and its time to put the ground floor in.
How better to do it than with modular concrete slabs, craned in.
As a little boy in a mans body this is exciting to see. And I am even off for the day too. Woohoo lol
So from this point in I am kind of expecting accelerated progress now.
Sad maybe, but I'm enjoying watching this, and can't wait to see what the end result really looks like.

Roses are red, and pink, and orange...
Having a quick tidy in the garden the other night and i decided it was time to give the rose bushes a trim. On cutting them I though why let it go to waste.
Mum spent years trying to get roses to grow, and finally had success with a few bushes of them. So I thought, why not try and see if I can get some more bushes from the off cuts....
So I present to you, my first attempt at growing roses from cuttings.
Watch as I fail miserably lol

Walls @ 6 Church Rise
Exciting times are upon us (well me anyway) as the walls of the garden flat begin to appear. The next phase is truly here, and I can finally believe there will be a house next door again, one day soon (ish)

One of 'those' days
You know the sort, we all have them. Nothing major and stressful, but just a day of minor hiccups that ultimately start to piss you off a little bit.
Well I'm having one today. Woke up and got up at my usual 'lazy' time as I have been recently. I think that might actually be a part of it, no structure. I shall come back to that. Walking the dogs, its threatened to rain. Email from the bank, I'm short for a bill, shirt I wanted to wear is dirty, dog not eating breakfast.... The list goes on.
Now I'm not going to stress about it, gawd no! I watched 24 hours in A&E last night and was reminded of what real anxiety and stress feels like. I don't wanna be back in that situation any time soon. Just watching someone panicking over nothing is enough to straighten me out a little. So, deep breath and all is well again in the land of Snaz!
But going back to structure, I think that's where I'm falling apart. I need the routine of P90X or Tai Chi back in my mornings, and that will start again next week. A week booked off work to allow for the adjustment, so I have a plan, no need to panic.
Other than that I have little to say. Olympics Part 1 went well, proud to be a Brit.
Just watching the Ecuador and Julian Assange story unfold, will we go into the embassy, will he flee.... So much going on.
OK weird looks on the train have started, so this is me signing out.
Have a good one people.

Today in 'over the hoarding'
Well today sees more concrete being poured, large pumps, foundations and rear staircases (as well as builders bum)
Can't believe how long the whole foundation process is taking. Sure is gonna be one sturdy house!
