Gathering my thoughts and strength

So I've calmed down a little since yesterday. I have missed some brain medicine, hence the extra emotional instability. I ended up having a few beers and a takeaway after I posted, which chilled me out. I didn't overdo it, for a change. I have been binging a lot lately though.

I'm hoping to head out tomorrow to pick up my prescription, but I also have a parcel arriving, so we shall just have to see. I really don't want to miss anymore tablets, as I'm getting those horrid metallic dizzy spells I usually get when accidentally withdrawing.

I'm still experiencing grief due to my ex dying plus, if you factor in having to deal with eBay oddballs, then you get an extra-stressed Jim. The eBay purchase finally arrived today (although I've not opened it yet), so at least that mess is out of the way. I hope.

It's just been little things here and there that keep cropping up that has led to my extra stress. And, of course, my ill-advised attempt to get back into social media. I did warn people that my returning may only be temporary, so I hope I won't have to explain myself to everyone. Not that they'll notice I'm gone, of course.

I'm typing this on my new Apple MacBook, by the way. I finally got round to leaving Microsoft, which was a rational decision, and certainly not because I lost my temper with my old Windows machine.

Errr...

But, yes, I'm liking the efficiency of my Apple machine, although it is taking some getting used to. I did use Microsoft for over thirty years, after all. I need to explore it more, as I'm not sure whether there's an official word processing program on here, or whether it's just Notes. I still have my paid annual subscription to Microsoft Office to cancel but, if they do a version for OS, maybe I'll keep it. Hmmm. I was feeling inspired to write today, but I may actually just do that here. You know, start a separate blog and publish a serialised story, Dickens-style. Not sure who'd read it though.

I've just bought a new amplifier online too. It's collection only, but the guitar shop isn't too far from where I get my medication, so I'll try to kill to birds with one stone, as they say.

Well, I best get to bed. I may have lots to do tomorrow. I'm currently watching 30 Rock in bed, which is a great comfort watch.

Do stay in touch, darlings.

Toodles!
