Chapter 39

Hello there, hope you are well. I am doing ok. I have been for a meal today and a pint. I enjoyed it. I am meeting up with some friends later. I am getting out when I can. I am still enjoying the gym. I get a bit lonely sometimes though. I have learned to cope with this. I read, listen to music, watch tv or do some chores. I stay positive, if things do worry me or get me down I rationalize. I look for solutions and I keep a smile on my face. Exercise always helps. After 10-20 minutes in the gym I feel fine. I have got my beliefs too that keep me strong. I am trying to work on my confidence levels too. Im getting there. I am making an effort to eat more fruit and veg too. Hopefully Im on the way up. Im going to live life the best I can and make the most of every day. I have been trough a lot in my life, it has made me strong and if I can help others I will. Believe in yourself. Till next time take care.

Chapter 36

Hello there, hope you are well. I am still doing the same. The training is going very well. I had a review last week with the gym instructor. He gave me some useful advice. I went for a meal last week with a good friend. It was nice. I am still keeping in touch with friends and family. Myself and a couple of friends watched football on tv. I went to see my aunt and uncle on Saturday. I am seeing some friends tonight. I am feeling more relaxed at the moment. This is because of the gym work I do. I am also enjoying a glass of wine at night. I am working on replacing negative thoughts with positive actions. I put some music on to inspire me. It really helps. I just hope I can keep on improving in all areas of my life. I have been doing a bit of reading lately. It has made me think in a more positive way. I have also had a chat with a couple of good friends and this has helped. Till next time, take care.

Chapter 35

Hello there, hope you are well. I am ok. I had a bad shoulder last week. I got better though in a couple of days. I did not let it affect me. I still went to the gym, I worked around it. I found that if I kept active I was healing myself. I did a bit of drawing last night, I found it very relaxing. I have done my washing this morning. I try to keep on top of my chores. I have got to get a bit of shopping later. These things have to be done. It is better than being ill though and not being able to do these tasks. Everyday I wake up and feel well is a bonus. I am looking forward to meeting up with some friends later. I am going to watch a bit of telly later to. It has been a bit cold and wet just lately. You dont have to let it get you down though. Just keep yourself wrapped up. Anyway till next time take care.
