I’m still here

Someone said to me yesterday ‘are you going to write another blog soon?’ and my instant thought was ‘how do you remember I had a blog? Even I’d pretty much forgotten’.

I suppose it’s nice that at least someone remembers I once detailed a month’s worth of running and complained about my bedroom wall to you. Only thing is that I should probably be remembering that too rather than just others.

Anyway, I’m here now (aren’t you lucky!) basically just to say that I am still around and the only reason I haven’t posted anything is because I’ve had very little (I think, anyway) to post about.

I’d like to say that I’ve been busy but the truth is I took a month off from my managing duties at LWOF because my brain went a bit funny and April was probably the deadest month I’ve had at work since I started there.

I think the slight feeling of burnout at the start of last month came at the end of my running. It had gotten to the point where it was the last thing I wanted to do each day and I just wasn’t enjoying it, which is not the point you want to be at.

Now, though, thankfully, I can go back to the gym and I’ve been enjoying that so far, and have actually noticed differences in three weeks that I didn’t in three months of dragging my feet around the same three running routes I had.

Being able to go out again has been a blessing too. Pubs were definitely a big miss of mine over lockdown and being able to see my mates again has made life infinitely less shit than it was.

I do have some more ideas about what I want to put on here in the future. A lot of it is just about waiting for the right time, though. In the meantime, I’m still here, just ticking along, waiting for the next big change to happen.

An impromptu update after over two months of silence on here but it’s nice to get something up (for me, anyway – probably less so for you). I’ll see you again in another two months when I’ll have most likely forgotten again that I paid money to do this and should probably make the most of it.

Take care. Go see your mates. Go to the pub.
