January 2018 update

I am still waiting to find out if I am moving or not. It’s getting very frustrating to say the least. If it goes wrong again it will be the third time in a row. I don’t have too much faith at  present.   My back trouble is easing a little now which is a great relief though. I can’t seem get focus on anything to do with music projects at the moment though I have  a few ideas floating in the back of my mind.  January is a bit gloomy enough though at the best of times.  This week sees me at the grand old age of 61 which is something that I could not ever have conceived of really.

Musings

I am starting the year on a low. I have had a few problems over the Christmas break, mostly with my back and so I have not been able to do much.  I am still waiting for news about my  flat which I have been trying to sell which seems to have run into quite a few obstacles along the way so I am still in a state of limbo basically which seems to be no nearer to resolving. This has really sapped my energy to a great extent now to the point today that I really felt no urge whatsoever to get out of bed.  I haven’t felt that bad for a long time.However I do have to get outside and get on the bus today so off we go. Fortunately my back has  survived the trip and I have not ground to a complete halt.
January is a miserable time of year though. Its dull and its wet and its generally a bit shite.
I was born in January so its OK for me to say that though.
