A Preamble...

I am calling this a pre-amble, as its late and I don't really have the time or the inclination to write a fuller post. You may say I'm lazy, but I'm just having a rest before I've earnt it.

So, I'm back. I never really went anywhere, but as you'll find from tomorrow's post, a lot has happened, which to cut a long story short, didn't affect my mental health in the bestest [sic] way and I ended up foolishly succumbing to my depression again. I'd like to say I can't help it. I'd like to blame others. I'd like it to be the fault of circumstance. But I don't think any of those things. I think when you're depressed, and I mean really depressed, not just a bit sad, but really, desperately black and gloomy. Infectiously negative.
But it is my fault. If I blame others, lay fault at the door of circumstance, then surely I have to wait for circumstance to pick me back up again. And I decided I couldn't wait that long. So I've started to pick myself back up again.

Again, a fairly random post, but I may expand some more and explain the specific reason I have started to write in this blog again. I will certainly write more about the past two months, and maybe I'll even find the time to write about being a SAHD! Stranger things have happened.

For now, its been a long day, its late, and bed is calling.

Comfy, comfy bed. Mmmmm....
