How much can a persons life change in a short span of time?

Its amazing how just 3 weeks ago I was unemployed and my head in a shed…….How they change!

Now I am in work, been there 2 weeks already.  I have an ‘OK’  income, after fretting about being on the dole with a house and bills, thinking I would have to live off fumes and wear bin bags for clothes before the year was out.

I have become a lot more focused, yet also more care free too, strange how that works.  My priorities in life are my son first, other than that it work to live, not live to work, and enjoy myself.

I went to town last Friday night and was actually worrying that I would feel like a square peg in a round hole, but after spending time with my new friends, I realised that none of them fit properly in any of the holes on the damn toy, no matter how hard you hit them with the hammer.  So now I dont care.

I also saw boobies lol, and felt obligated to ensure that the bar staff in question were appreciated by standing there mesmerised (hey it was the first time I ever went to Vice).

Saturday just gone I also went into town with my tattoo as a mission and have booked it in for next week and I cannot wait.

My house on the other hand is half way through painting and I doubt I will have time soon to get it finished, although I should at least finish the front room so I can put the furniture back tidy.

As far as my weight thing is going I put on about a stone over the previous 2 months but have already lost half a stone in the last 2 weeks, so even that is back on track.

So all good really

Loving you all

G – with a Grin  ;-D

So thats me in a nut shell

Bring me to Life

August 3, 2009

These lyrics are rather apt for how I feel at the moment, just feeling very numb of late…..

Bring Me To Life lyrics
Songwriters: Hodges, David; Lee, Amy; Moody, Ben;

How can you see into my eyes like open doors?
Leading you down into my core where I’ve become so numb
Without a soul, my spirit sleeping somewhere cold
Until you find it there and lead it back home

Wake me up
(Wake me up inside)
I can’t wake up
(Wake me up inside)
Save me
(Call my name and save me from the dark)

Wake me up
(Bid my blood to run)
I can’t wake up
(Before I come undone)
Save me
(Save me from the nothing I’ve become)

Now that I know what I’m without
You can’t just leave me
Breathe into me and make me real
Bring me to life

Wake me up
(Wake me up inside)
I can’t wake up
(Wake me up inside)
Save me
(Call my name and save me from the dark)

Wake me up
(Bid my blood to run)
I can’t wake up
(Before I come undone)
Save me
(Save me from the nothing I’ve become)

I’ve been living a lie
There’s nothing inside
Bring me to life

Frozen inside without your touch
Without your love, darling
Only you are the life among the dead

All this time, I can’t believe I couldn’t see
Kept in the dark but you were there in front of me
I’ve been sleeping a thousand years it seems
Got to open my eyes to everything

Without thought, without voice, without a soul
Don’t let me die here
There must be something more
Bring me to life

Wake me up
(Wake me up inside)
I can’t wake up
(Wake me up inside)
Save me
(Call my name and save me from the dark)

Wake me up
(Bid my blood to run)
I can’t wake up
(Before I come undone)
Save me
(Save me from the nothing I’ve become)

I’ve been living a lie
There’s nothing inside
Bring me to life
