November the 4th already! I really don't know where the last month has gone. I have been really enjoying myself for the first time in ages. Steady work coming in for the computer repairs side of things, and I'm becoming more social again too. I wouldn't have believed it a couple of years ago - but I am who I am now - and it feels great.
I really hope that everyone that reads this gets a bit of my "good vibes" too - I seem to have a lot to go round just now.
Love and big hugs to all - even if you think you don't need them

August 1st - The heat has really started to interfere with normal daily life - gets too hot in the afternoons now to do much at all - not that I'm really complaining 
Still thinking of my mother a lot of the time - I know it was a release for her, but it still hurts when you realise that she is no longer there to call for a chat or visit. Makes me quite sad to dwell on it, so I try not to.
Might have got myself another job as a part time gardner - 3 hours a week - not quite sure how I got volunteered for it - I do like gardening, but didn't really think of myself as a person who would be doing other peoples gardens - oh well, I'll give it a try
Keeping myself busy with repairing and sorting out other peoples computers too - although this last week I haven't had any work, but the week before I had four jobs! I think people have gone into hiding from the sun - or gone back to UK for a holiday to escape it.
Hope everybody out there is doing as well as they can - Hugs all round.

sorry to hear about your mum, it is very hard to accept that they are not around any more but time is a healer, my dad past away xmas morning, it was the hardest thing in my life, but its the memories that keeps us going
there will be a lot of tears, but as time goes on those tears will stop and you will think of those happy times and know that she is watching over you
you take care, you are in my thoughts here

I'm sorry about your mom too! So sorry to hear it.
I'm glad you got a gardening job. That sounds really cool, although it sounds like you will have to work in the early morning or evenings to avoid the heat! Best of luck to you on that. I am sure you will do great.
I'm sure you will get more computer jobs. Those things do happen in rushes. Either nobody needs help or everybody needs help, but there will always be computer work to be done.
Lots of hugs. I'm glad you are hanging in there.

Keeping busy,,,always occupies the mind..Hang in there..I have so much on my table..with my husband as his disease worsens..Most times I am stressed to the mAX!!
Finally got some time (and my head together) to write something. Where to start. Had some really good months, but then my mother took a turn for the worse. Went to see her in May and she was not good at all. She died a couple of weeks ago - not unexpected, and a release for her as she was definately not happy with the way she was - but still upsetting for everyone. Went back to Scotland for the funeral last week - all went well, as well as it could go.Was pretty upset for a few days, but then the realisation of the way she was and the way she went (very quickly soon after waking one morning - just stopped breathing) has helped get things in my mind back to a positive way of thinking about it - don't mean or want to sound callous but life really does have to go on - doesn't mean that I'm not thinking of her constantly, but in a positive, happy way.
Anyhow I am still busy in the new venture of fixing peoples computers - still not making lots of money though :-) I do get a lot of very positive feelings from the satisfaction of getting someone back into the world of cyberspace again
Hope everyone out there is coping as well as they can and can smile through whatever life is throwing at them now.
Hugs all round.
Rab.
