Getting My Kit Off

It has felt like yonks since I wrote a post at the weekend I was in London seeing Doctor Faustus  and quite a bit of Kit Harrington ( the chap from game of Thrones ) which I don't watch as it is dragons , ladies , swords and fighting and people who could do with wearing a stich more clothing. And as my husband and son are watching it I'm doing that annoying habit of saying whose that several hundred times ....


I've popped to the shops ( I love that phrase ) it was the farm shop 



And this is one of the views I have on the way to the farm shop , one day I'll actually snap a picture of one of the things I buy ! before I eat it ! I was hoping to do a blog post where I could up load my pictures from my Nikon but Blogger is being a pain in the backside and I'm fighting an ant invasion and I'm struggling with the puffy ant powder .

And to top it all the cat walked out the kitchen this morning as I walked it in , I'm pretty sure it was an omen ..

My Blogging Therapy

At the moment I'm in the grips of a positive flow blog wise , life wise everything wise that's not to say I dint get down as I do but the dips I'm in are getting shallower. I have no doubt I'll always have depression /.anxiety but it's how I deal with it that counts  and my support network around me . Just as you wouldn't say to a depressed person " do you think you should have the tablets "

You shouldn't say to me to "take the tablets "


I'm tablet free depression wise but that's my choice , my therapy is in other quarters tea , cars countryside and I do love a good  bunting . I'm contemplating going to knitting at some point but haven't since knitting rate consumed me ps I didn't go loco with the knitting needles instead it's a patience issue which is something I've got to work on reality .

So my therapy continues 



There's no point in grieving on what is lost in my world instead I work on what I'll become .
