September 1st and thought it was about time i updated my blog. We also dont have access to the lounge at the moment so the study is the only room im able to sit down in. The extention work is still in full swing but it looks like it may finally be all completed in the next 4 weeks yeyyyy. Im embarrassed to admit it but im actually missing doing the housework. There seems to be a film of red or brown dust over the whole house which we are now able to write things in. I have a couple of times give everything a quick wipe over but its doesnt seem to make it look much better.

HIGHLIGHTS from the last 6 weeks.
Im still going swimming and ive now lost 3 stone.
Im still getting anxiety but im feeling a bit more in control now, although i do have my bad days.
Jono (im not sure why i started calling him JT lol) is still wonderful and he is enjoying his new job and working on the house.
We have had some fun relaxing days which we have really needed.
Church as continued to be good and there are some wonderful people there who have had us round for tea during the house mess.
going to the cinema.
Im still enjoying work and ive been given extra responsibities which makes the 10 hour shift more bareable.
Mom and Dad being lovely and supportive. Also enjoying a day out in Castleton with my dad the other week and we went into the Devils Arse lol

LOWLIGHTS

This stupid anxiety and worry which gets me upset and drives me mad.
10 hour shifts which can go really slow.
Living a house thats a complete mess and having to cook on a camping stove (we havnt had one takeaway Though which we are very proud off. We even cooked steak the other night lol).
Not having enough hours in day. (i am learning to relax a bit more though).

I love doing lists like that as it helps you focus on the good rather than just the bad. Yes things are a bit shitty but also i have so many wonderful things in my life which i do thank God for and im grateful for them.
