My boss told me to keep my voice down this morning. It's the story of my life. At primary school I was put on my own so I didn't distract others, in the fancy dress competition I was Mr Chatterbox. I'm loud, I talk and talk but not about the stuff I really need/want to.
When I bleed it releases the stuff that's built up. The anger, the hurt, the mixed up stuff I can't describe.
I'm supposed to be living life to the full, but I just don't know how to do that. I feel I'm a confused child trapped in an adults body which feels all awkward and wrong.
God I hate myself, when I bleed I feel I deserve it.
Does anyone out there actually hear what I'm trying to say??

I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
