Good goat times today. Cold morning. Down around 7C/44F. But it was a lovely day with lots of sunshine, so it did warm up as the sun shone on.
It’s good to be back to a solid goat routine. The goats seem to be doing well. They could use to lose some weight, but couldn’t we all.
Lots of kids taking advantage of fall break to come spend time at the playground. Bunch of them in the goat pen too. I heard one adult call Luna “the killer-goat”. Haha. Yeah. She’s not the best petting goat unfortunately. She will swing her head at them to get them to keep distance. I should probably bring the water bottle again and see if I can train her a little. Bella and Sky are much better at it. Bella will walk away if the kids get too annying. And Sky, she’s just the sweetest little petting goat.
i think everyone had a good time, and no one got murdered by Luna. Can’t complain.
And now it is the time of the soup.

Jeanette brought hedge trimmings! Yum yum. The goats know there’s something good in store when she back her car with the trailer up to the pen. Leafy good taste.

Snoozing under a blue sky. At one point Sky was sitting in the shade under the ramp on the left. At this point she had gone to work on the hedge trimmings while the big girls were zonking in the sun.

Guess what I got today?
I got an hour on the bike, that’s what I got.
Yes. I got back to exercising. For the first time in a month and a half. Whoops. And only for the second time in the last two months.
Yeah, I really let things slide. But in my defense, first my mouth exploded and then my house exploded. With the dental and the rehoming issues, i just haven’t.. wanted to.
I still kind of don’t. But on the other hand, I needed to stop the unhealthy spiral. And also, it does feel good to have that physical exertion. Once you’re going it feels good to burn.
Not a super effort today, I can definitely feel that I have lost some muscle strength and lung capacity. But it’s just about taking the first step. The next steps will become easier.
I have this habit of only weighing myself after exercising. So I was a little worried what the scales would say after so long. I knew I had put on weight, I definitely feel and see that. I was surprised that I had only put on about 4 pounds. Okay, to that you have to add another about 4 pounds I had put on the last time I exercised. So. 8ish pounds. That’s not great. But I thought it would be worse. And considering how much weight I had lost before that, it’s not really a disaster. Especially because, and I’m sorry to sound cocky and I hope it won’t backfire later, but I feel like I know how to lose weight. And I know I can do it and I know how to do it. If I survive the big move then I feel fairly confident I can lose those 8 pounds again. Right now it’s about not gaining more and not completely falling into horrible habits.
I do still want to spoil myself too. Because my mental state most of the time is swinging between ‘depressed’ and ‘complete panic’. But with added exercise and a couple of semi-fasting days a week, I think I can still have room to spoil myself.
And January seems like it would be a good month to crank it up and work on losing weight again. After the holidays.
That’s the plan, Steen.

Didn’t just exercise today. Also cleared some stuff off my Moving list.
A couple of minor things, but also one that I have been worrying about. The thing about what date my actual move is supposed to be registered on. I emailed the housing association, and they replied that i should register my moving date as the day when I get the keys to the new apartment. Not November 1st, not December 1st, no the day when I get my bed moved there and start to stay there. But the day I have access to the apartment. So that makes a bit of sense i guess, I’m just glad to have an answer so I don’t have to worry so much about that.
Progress, I suppose.
Now I am really tired. I have been fasting all day and exercised for the first time in a month and a half. I’m pretty berried.
Time to get something to eat.

Please feel free to imagine the berryfall video that I tried to post.
I don’t know if it’s the whole “all videos are reels now” shttery, but I don’t seem to be able to post a video now. With my luck both attempts will probably appear by the time i’ve gone to bed..
Reels are cancer, a symptom of the decline of society. Some day all funerals will just be on TikTok and the algorithm will decide if you get to live or you have to Logan’s Run to avoid becoming Soylent.

Today is October 15th. Can you believe it?
Other than the relentles passing of time and the dwindling sand rushing through the hourglass never to be reclaimed, it is also significant because today would have been the day when I would have had the 1st apartment I was offered. Now, I would still ahve had to wait 2 more weeks before the keys because they have that 2 week period of fixing the place up. But still. If i had taken that first offer, things would have gotten super real today.
I sure am i glad I got the 2nd offer, and took it. Because I liked that apartment better, because it’s right next door. And because I’m lad i have those couple of weeks extra. It still feels too real. But at least it’s not right now. It will be. But it isn’t yet.
The river of time. Just trying to go with the flow. And not drown.

Good goat times today. A pretty quiet day. The ground was wet, must have been raining overnight. It was dry when i was out, though. And the sun came through too. Still a bit chilly.
No visitors from the neighbouring school today, probably because of fall vacation. There were a couple of kids visiting, but only for a minute. The goats weren’t super active either. Mostly just relaxing. Taking my mind off the world outside. Inside the goat pen is where I feel best.
But now I’m home and will have soup, and that’s not too bad.

The hedge trimmings were all wet and on the ground, so I scooped up as much as I could and put it on the pile of branches. Here the goat three are getting onto it.

Bella found a good spot to stand. Kind of funny, I don’t remember any of them standing there like that, she was just standing there for quite a while. There’s a bit of space behind the goat house there and sometimes they’ll go back there to try and find some untouched greens. But not just standing there. It’s a good spot to look out at the pen though. And I think it was those wooden boards that kept her there. The grass was very wet from rain, and you know goats love to stand on stuff and hate getting their feetsies wet.
Also you can see Sky standing in the door of the goat house. Probably happy to have a fence between her and Bella.

Got a couple of items on my List for the upcoming move checked off.
Posted on reddit asking for recommendations for a cleaning company to clean my apartment. So I’ll have to see if I get any responses to that.
Sent an email to the internet provider that I would like to use in my new apartment. Did I write about that? Can’t remember. I’m thinking of using another provider at the new place. I think that would make it all easier. Just needed some questions answere. So I’ll have to wait for replies to that.
Added Helle’s phonenumber to my contact list. Hey, it’s a small item, but I got it checked off!
And I talked to Helle today, on messenger and on te phone. She’s so helpful. She is making this all a lot less daunting. She is part of the whole housing association and local community, it’s so nice to be able to draw on that. She’s going to see if we can ge a reply back confirming that they’re not going to try to rent out my apartment and that I just need to do the basic cleaning. And to get confirmation that we can use the ‘social movers’ for my move.
I actually got an email (after a missed phonecall) from a moving company today. The one that the housing assoc uses I guess. They want to start arrange things. They want to come and look at my place and give me moving boxes on Monday the 27th. And the move itself they gave two available dates. November 19th or November 26. The 26th seems way too late. The 19th would be okay. That’s Wednesday. I originally had thought I wanted Monday, but have been thinking that Tuesday might be better to give myself a little more time to move the small stuff myself and get stuff sorted. Wednesday would be fine.
But again, if things work out with Helle’s movers then I’m not going to move this moving company. So I wrote back asking if it would be okay to confirm (or deny) their dates until next week. I should find out next week if we can proceed with Helle’s suggestion.
So we’ll see. Ugh man, it starts to feel so real when you get dates and you have to agree on things and confirm things and do things that can’t be taken back. Like, i’m going to have to cancel my current internet subscription. But once I’ve done that THEN I HAVE TO MOVE. I know I have to move. But you never know, that option of barricading myself in the bathroom might still be viable… or not.
Anyway. Oh also Helle has a, I think she called it ‘city wagon’, I can borrow for the move. I think it’s basically a shopping kart from the supermarket next doo that closed a few years ago. That would be perfect for karting my stuff bit by bit to the new apartment. I would really like not having to pack all my belongings in boxes and having strangers handle them. Just slowly freighting them over by myself and setting it up as I want in the new place, that would be good.
.. Oh and while I wrote this post, I got a reply back from the internet provider. Looks like that’s all good and should work out. And I got them to waive the creation fee. Not that it’s a lot. But still. Hopefully I can get that worked out so I’ll have my current internet subscription here for all of November and then get the new subscription up and running at the new place so I have it ready to go pretty much right away when I move in. That would be nice, if there were no complications there. Because it’s pretty important to have the internets. You all probably have your wifies and are automatically only wherever you go. I have to have a cabled connection to my PC.
Alright. Got some stuff done today, the list is shrinking. Not too much left to deal with, I just hope the important stuff works out. and that I don’t accidentally trip and fall into the well. Hey goats get help, Timmy’s stuck in the well!

Got an hour on the bike today.
Almost didn’t get to it. Things didn’t go according to plan.
I had planeed to get up early and do my exercising and be all productive and BetterMan.
Instead I ended up sleeping for 12 hours. I was feeling depressed. I think th Moving List stuff from yesterday got to me. It all still worries me a lot. And then I had such lovely dreams. You know I love to dream. So when I woke up in the morning, instead of getting up and exercising I… rolled over and waited to fall asleep again to dream some more.
And I do love my dreams. They are all faded by now, the only thing I really remember are Xena and Gabriella appearing in some kind of fantasy epic movie that I was in but it wasn’t just a movie it was also reality and it was awesome. Anyway, they were pretty funny.
So that wasn’t what I had wanted to happen, but at least once I got up I managed to drag myself to the bike. I didn’t really want to, but I forced myself to get going. And that’s good. Right now it’s about getting back to the routine. After not exercising for so long, now I just have to train myself to do it again. Even if it’s a mediocre effort. My lung and muscle capacity will get better again after a while, it’s just important to do SOMETHING. And i did. So that’s good
And now i’m going to make me some soup. So that’s good.

I do miss walking this way to the old place. The old playgrounds both had their ups and downs, and so many memories connected to them. Sometimse I wish I could magically blend all three playgrounds and take the best parts of each and make a superplayground.
Of course, at the end of the day it’s the goats there that matter most.

On this day. In one month. I will probably be in my new apartment.
I mean, not moved in. But casually hanging out with my imaginary friends, whom rudely refuse to help me move stuff. Being noncorporeal is not a valid excuse, guys!
But yes, I should be in the midst of moving things over. The keys in my possession.
Depending on how it all goes.
The information says they have two weeks (at the most) to fix up the place. So theoretically they could be done faster than two weeks and I could get the keys earlier. I wouldn’t mind that, the more time to set up the place before I move in, the better.
But I’m going to be relieved when this is all done. It’s been a wild couple of months. I am so used to living in my own bubble. Avoiding reality. I have had to spend an awful lot of time in the real world lately. I don’t find it very appealing. I’ll be happy when the world narrows in and I can settle into my bubble, even if it will look a bit different. Higher up in the clouds. With a view.
Anyway, enough prattling. I’ll leave you with a video of some exquisit acting. Thank you all for helping me navigate this weird place

Feeling nauseated and heart pounding. I am a little overhelmed with it all now, now that it’s getting closer. Worried about the timing of everything. Inspection of the old place, inspection of the new place, the moving companies we’re juggling, the electrian for the lamps, the internet and tv companies. It feels like a jiggsaw puzzle and my anxiety is terrified that I’m going to stand on the last day and realise that the pieces aren’t fitting together. I simultaneously wish it was just over and also that it will not happen. For time to speed up and slow down, at the same time. Maybe I should practice my contortionist act.
Trying to deal with some of the stuff on my List today, and I just want to .. not. Avoidance Speed Factor 12 straight ahead.
Alright. Step by step, one day a day, bit bit bit. Remember to keep breathing, at least once in a while.

Another week almost over. Got a few things on the List done today. But stuff that requires replies, still lots of berries in the air. I am not feeling good right now. Really feeling the stress and anxiety.
Doesn’t help that I slept too much the night before last and too little last night. My head hurts. i am very tired, mentally and physically.
But thanks everyone for the encouraging words. I don’t know what I’d do if I was alone with all of this.
Let’s see what next week brings. There are some pieces of the puzle that need to start falling into place now.
[addendumb]
Well, before I was able to post this, I had to run to the bathroom for a major vomit fest. Pretty bad. I feel like it was more severe than a “I’m feeling worried and it’s making me feel sick” feeling, like I’ve had most of the day. This felt more like I ate something bad. But who knows. I’ll have to see how I feel in the morning. I hope I’m not getting sick now. Although better now than in a month I suppose.
Alright. Hope you’re all doing well. I need to see a man about a berry.

That’s all for now.

Good goat times today. Back to the goat place and away from the worries for a while.
A lovely sunny day. Although the sun is shifting and mostly hitting the far side of the pen now. And it’s getting colder. Barely above 10C/50F. Wish I could timeskip to next spring, when everything will be fine, surely.
Nothing too exciting happened today. Just hanging out with the goats, which is plenty of excitement for me. We did have some visitors, but they stayed out of the goat pen.
Suddenly my phone ran. My first thought was “Oh no someone wants to see my apartment”. But it turns out it was just the electrician, wanting to book at ime when he could come take my lamps down. We agreed that I’d get back to him a little later when I have a firmer grasp on when exactly I’ll switch apartments. Hopefully I can keep the lights on.
Now i think it’s time for some soup I think. Good idea.

Been taking it easy today. I got a Pepsi & Protein delivery. Been buying a lot of bananas lately. Two bananas and a protein bar, that’s a good breakfast right? Well, once everything is settled I will hopefully get back on a healthy path, right now I’m just staggering along.
I desperately don’t want to deal with. everything that’s coming. My stomach just clenches up when I think of it all
But at least I have time to slowly look at stuff. I was going to apply for housing aid today, but after looking at the citizen service site I have questions. So I’m going to see if i can get answers to that. I have to register my new address 5 days after my move at the latest. But what date is that? I take over the new apartment on November 1st. But I probably won’t move in until around the 17th. And i have this apartment until December 1st. Since I will have access to both places for a while, my official move date isn’t necessarily one specific date. I’ll have to see if I can find some guidance on that. I guess I’ll ask the housing assoc if they can tell me that, otherwise i’ll have to contact the citizen service. Or maybe just go with they 17th or whatever date it will be.
Blergh. As always I just worry too much and I don’t want to think about it all. I just want to eat sleep and play.
Happy national frap day, everyone.

Another day is slipping through the hourglass. Happily, I have received no calls from anyone wanting to see my apartment. I don’t actually know if my apartment is still listed for rental, but today was the last reply date according to the message. So if it was still up for rent, then I guess nobody wanted it. Hooves crossed.
Still haven’t gotten any message about whether they intend to try to rent it out. But I hope that nonsense is over with.
Do you ever feel like you’re the only real human on an episode of the Muppet show? Like everyone else is a muppet and you’re the only human.
Or maybe the other way around. You’re the muppet in a human world. One of those episodes where the main character turns into a muppet. They did that on Angel, I’m pretty sure. Please don’t try to ventriloquist me. Do penguins lay eggs? Can you make a penguin omelette? Are penguins even birds? Do they have feathers? What’s the deal with penguins? Is that even what they’re called? It looks like a French word. How do you pronounce Penguin in French. Pan Gwang? Why are you all looking at me like that? Did they forget to make little muppet pants for my muppet puppet?

I just had a crazy idea. That i hope I can pull off.
I have this little.. piece of furniture. Chest of drawers?
I’ve been thinking that i want to get rid of it, because I’m a weirdo and i want to get rid of as much furniture as possible and just have plastic storage boxes.
Well, the thought just occured to me… if I took out the drawers. There’s an almost goat sized space in there… I think Sky maybe could fit in there. Not as spacious or cool as the red playhouse. But I mean. On a rainy day, she might be able to step inside it and be dry and not bothered by the big goats.
I don’t know. I haven’t had a closer look at it, how the space is inside, if it could even work. And then there’s the question of transportation, I’m not sure how heavy it is when emptied. Don’t think it’s too heavy. Maybe I could manage to carry it to the playground. Or get help transporting it.
Hmm. Well, that would be fun! A little chest of Sky drawers! I have no idea if this will work out or if it’s a crazy pipedream. It wouldn’t be until after the move and I have everything in order and am sure I want to get rid of it and can get a better idea of the feasibility of it all. But hey, it’s a fun though. I’d really like her to have a little space like that. I’m glad she has the shelter roof to stand under, but she often gets chased away from there too because it’s right over the hatch opening, and there’s often one of the big girls standing there. A tiny little goatchelor pad just to the side, that would be cool.
We’ll see.
If I took the drawers and turned them upside down and pushed them into the ground enough, maybe they’d even make little platforms to jump on.
We’ll see we’ll see.

Good goat times today. Clears the head to be with the goat gang.
We got sunshine, but a few raindrops too. And the coldening continues. Starting to feel it when I don’t close my jacket. My wrecked circulation makes it too cold when it’s under 10C/50F in the morning. I hought i even saw some frost in the grass when i got out, but that’s probably just my mind playing tricks on me.
But a sweet time in goatland. Jeanette got a fire going and made pancakes for visitors. A bunch of visitors today. One guy came over to the fence and said hi, said it was good to see me again. They usually come on Thursdays, and I have missed a few of those with everything going on. It was nice of him to come over and say he was glad I was back.
Lots of kids too, some of them going in the pen to pet the goats too. There was one boy who was real friendly. He was like tapping me on the shoulders and putting his arms around me like he was hugging me. His adults had to tell him that when you don’t know a person then you can’t just go and touch them like that. He was like a little goat, zero understanding of personal space. They apologised to me when they left, but I just laughed it off. It was pretty funny. And for some reason i find it a lot easier to deal with than you know, actually talking to people. So, if you ever meet me don’t try to talk to me, jsut invade my personal space and touch me without permission.
Wait, that’s.. that’s maybe not a good takeaway from this.
But a lovely time. When I got home I spent some time gathering the last stuff on my old bookshelves. Books and DVDs are long gone, but there was a stack of old CDs. Some bought music CDs, some burned ones with tons of old Smashing Pumpkins concerts.
Again, slightly heartbreaking to get rid of all that old treasure. Music. Lifeblood. Stuff that got me through the days. Untouched for many years now, because now I have it all on the computer. Still sad to get rid of it. But so it goes. I must shed as much as I can of the old skin. And it’s nice to see the bookshelves completely empty. Visual proof that I have been on a journey to unburden myself.
And now I’m going on a journey to soup. My favourite destination, other than the goat place.

Guess what I did today?
No.
No, not that either.
No, I’m not even sure you CAN make soup of penguins, and I wouldn’t.
Okay, I’ll tell you.
I rode the elevator. On my own.
It may be the first time ever. In my building. I live on the ground floor, so it’s not like I need it. Although the real ground floor is actually the basement, depending on where you come from you have to go through the basement to get in. But nevermind.
I’m not sure, but I may never have used the elevator in my own building, not without my parents there. They need it, because they have mobility issues.
But anyway, I thought I would just try it out. And it turns out the elevator is really easy to use, very simple layout and easy to see. So that’s good. I hope the elevator in my new building is as easy to use. That would be nice.
We’ll see.
I have been toying with the idea of moving a bunch of my stuff over myself during the weekend. Assuming i get the keys on Friday 14th. And do the major move Monday 17th. I could spend the weekend going back and forth. Since it’s just next door. Just carry stuff over. Would save me from packing everything in boxes and then unpacking everything. Just take it bit by bit. It’s not like I have a ton of stuff. And that way I would know what I’m carrying and where it goes, would be pretty easy. And then all the moving people would have to take are the big things and the important things that I need to keep until I move over permanently. Is that a completely stupid idea? I don’t know. But If I do do (doo-doo) that then it would be nice to take the elevator. I think in everyday life I’d probably be fine taking the 6 flights of stairs and thinking of that as exercise. But carrying stuff and going back and forth, would be good to use the elevator.
Alritey, just thinking out loud. I mean typing out loud. I mean, well you know what I mean I mean.
Alternatively I could barricae myself in the bathroom and hope they give up on the idea of making me move. You never know, it could work.

Woke up feeling pretty bleh, with a slightly sore through and feeling a little dizzy.
I think i’m feeling better now, though. Probably just the hypochondria flaring up.
Time is ticking. Today is a 10/10, although it feels pretty mid.
Feeling tired and sad, mostly.
But dad brought me cake. Thanks, dad!
He also brought me an old christmas card from Angeline! Hah. I don’t know how that card ended up in my parents’ apartment. But ehm, thank you, Angeline! I’m not sure exactly when it is from, but tis the season now.

What the heart is full of.
I dreamt about Keiko last night. Not once, but twice.
Had a good night’s sleep of drifting in and out of interesting cool dreams.
The first one was at the old playground, the first playground. I only talked to Keiko a little because she was riding around on the ‘moon cars’ (the gocarts that they have there). But we talked a little about Palle and grandma.
And then in a later dream she was taking me somewhere, by bus i think. it was a house where she had worked as au-pair? And she hadn’t had a good time there, the people weren’t nice. But there was a dog that she had loved. And when i got there the dog jumped up on me and knocked me over and was licking my face and was really sweet.
And that’s about what I remember, it’s all a blur now.
I was just happy to be visited by Keiko.
You all feel free to stop by in my dreams, I can handle human contact in the dreamworld!

(This is going to be a long stream of arely consciousness with nothing important, feel free to skim or skip)
Haven’t done too much serious dealing with things this weekend. But I have gathered up a list of things I need to do, in regards to the move.
I have this file on my computer, temp.txt. As the name suggests it was meant to be a temporary file. I think I made it more than a decade ago. I have a keyboard shortcut that brings it up. Whenever I need to note something down, I use that file. It is very very long now with lots of ancient and outdated stuff. I tend to just add to it, and old stuff gets pushed down and forgotten.
Anyway. Ever since the apartment offeres came in I have been adding tidbits to that file. Today I got them moved over to my rehoming file, where I have kept information about all that. So now I have a neater sort of list of things that need to be dealt with. Almost like a plan, if you will.
There isn’t _that_ much important stuff I guess.
The biggest question mark for me is probably when to register my official change of address. It has to be done between 4 weeks before you move and 5 days after you move at the latest. And i’m still not sure when my official move date is. Is it November 1st when I officially get the new apartment? Or December 1st when I lose my current apartment? Or the first day I sleep in the new place?
I have a feeling the official system wants it to be November, but even though that’s the date on the paperwork, I don’t actually get the keys until 2 weeks later, because the housing association has to fix it up first. So I don’t really want my official registered address to be a place I don’t actually have the keys to yet. Maybe the day I get the keys would be the best day to set.
Anyway, that’s one of the first steps on the list, to see if the housing association or the municipality has any guidance on that.
Another one is finding a cleaning service. I still haven’t heard back if the housing assoc wants to rent our my apartment for the 3 months until it gets taken down, but assuming they don’t then my apartment just needs a basic cleaning. But I still feel like that’s beyond my capabilities. So I need to find a service to do that. I am thinking that I’m going to post on my city’s reddit page and ask for recommendations. Maybe Helle knows of one too. But I need to get that booked for when i’m out of the apartment.
And I need to book the electrician. Once I know what day I’ll probably make the permanent move, then I need the electrician to take my lamps down and put them up in the new place.
And I need to look at my internet connection. Part of the documents I got from the housing assoc was something about their regular partner for TV and internet. I use another company for internet right now. But I’m thinking I will switch to the company that I have my TV from now too. They have a cheaper and faster connection than my current one. So, I figure I will keep my current connection here until I’m out of the apartment. While getting the new connection up at the new place. That would mean paying double for November. But I feel like that would be worth it. In case there are problems with the new connection, then I’ll have the old connection until the end of hte month. Because internet connection is pretty dang important to me. That’s my plan, keeping my current connection until the end of November, getting the new one from the beginning of November. But I do have some questions about the new connection, so I have to contact their support and ask. I also have to find out if I need to do anything about my TV package. I will be using the same company at the new place as I do here, but I’m not sure if my package gets moved over to the new place or if I have to cancel my current on here and start a ne one there.
I want to order some big storage boxes. Since I’m planning to use more of those instead of my furniture and stuff. So I want to have those before the move. That way I can put some stuff in it and take them over one by one, moving bit by bit during that weekend after I get the keys.
And that.. is pretty much it. Some other small things. Clearing my basement storage unit. Asking on reddit for general moving advice. Update my address various places after the move, the places that don’t get the new data automatically from the official register. I have standing lamp that I need to check if it works, would be handy if that still works so I have some light before the electrician moves the ceiling lamps.
I think that’s basically. I don’t really have to pack things, if I move the small stuff myself during the weekend.
Yeah. Can anyone think of anything else I need to get done? If you have read all that.
But it’s not really too bad. On paper.
I feel better about it all. Mostly because I felt completely utterly despair and anguish beforehand. I’m not feeling good about it now, but it feels more manageable. Getting the pre-inspection done and having Helle see my apartment and say that she’s seen much worse, that did help.
it felt impossible before. Now it feels like.. well maybe I can get through. Still very worried about things going wrong. But it’s possible they won’t. It’s possible.
I’m so anchored in my routines and set in my ways, it’s going to be difficult to be uprooted. Like having a tooth pulled out. It may seem simple on paper. But it can still hurt a lot if it isn’t done right. Okay, maybe I shouldn’t stretch the metaphor. There’s just .. stuff I don’t talk about. Part of my life is kind of a puzzle. And I’m worried if i will be able to put it back together in a good way when this is done.
But hey. On paper it looks possible. So let’s hope.
Hopefully my dreams will move with me.

Another week is winding down. A pretty uneventful one for me. No big unforeseen challenges. So that’s good.
Putting the plans together and slowly progressing.
Hopefully nothing too major next week either. I’m going to try starting t work on the list and the things that are ready to get started on.
And I would really like to start exercising again. I hope I will be able to. It’s been too long and I am feeling quite unhealthy. I don’t need to get back in super shape right now, but at least stop the downard spiral. It’s already gotten too out of hand. I will do my best.
The depression has been stong today, but tomorrow’s another berry.
Bit by bit, step by step, one day a day.
