It’s been a long time since I last posted.
It would be easy to write that I had been away for a while or that I had forgotten to write anything, but both would be a lie. I have been nowhere and although I have been forgetting practically everything within a few hours, that isn’t the reason for me not writing.
The truth is that since my last post I have been wallowing in self pity, fighting insurance companies and trying to find somewhere to live. Not necessarily in that order.
I have thought about writing but then realised that I had nothing worth writing about. I was feeling very sorry for myself and once selfishness takes hold, you become oblivious to everything else. You don’t care about what is happening to others, you only care about why is this happening to me!!
I decided that maybe I should snap out of it and face the world like a man. Ok, that was overly dramatic but I have been away for a while and should be allowed some leeway. Seriously though, I realised that I couldn’t spend the rest of my life living in the glorious past and afraid to face the here and now. I don’t want to, who would. The here and now is a bleak place and not just for me. All of us are feeling the pinch. But wanting something doesn’t mean that you can get it. There is no way I am going to be who I used to be, I just have to try and be a better and stronger person now.
Ok, that was overly condescending too. I really should stop while I am behind!
However (there always is a however, isn’t there), I decided to start my own webpage and blog. That way, I am not constrained to the limits that the free WordPress has. My own site looks exactly the same as this except it’s a little sparse on articles. For now.
So, if you want to read whatever scribbles I write, you will have to visit my new site at:

I hope to see you all there!
So, This is Reality?
