How has everyone’s year going for them so far

Hi so are you guys year going so far? With me it’s hard I have been approved to do agency work around different schools but at the moment there are no placements available. I’ve got the job centre on my back which is really annoying. The good things about this year is I did my first live fire performance at a winter festival. Hundreds of people watched and I loved every minute of it and I am doing more practice with my fire staff I was at the park earlier practicing with it unlit for a good hour and my dog had a nice run around. I am planning on creating a zen garden in my house to help with my mental health so far I have an indoor water fountain battery operated and I’m going to grow a bonsai tree. I’m also helping a local autism charity with an enterprise project to help raise funds so yeah so far this year is having its ups and downs. So please share how this year is going for you so far.

  • About the same as every other year although I've been feeling very low for the last couple of weeks. I went into town today for lunch with my wife and felt very uncomfortable being around so many people.

    So I'm watching my favourite comfort film "little shop of horrors" , I generally don't do musicals but this has a special place in my heart. Oddly I also watch "the commitments" this week which I'd sort of half forgotten, I've not seen it for 30 years but still remembered it almost word for word. 

    Hopefully onwards upwards 

  • I love Little Shop of Horrors. It's one of my comfort watches :)

    For me, this year is about recovery. Had major burnout triggering a manic episode (I'm bipolar) last year. Got diagnosed autistic on top of bipolar (or underlying it, not sure) and am now signed off work while I deal with a slow recovery from all *that stuff*. Feeling positive though, I think... maybe... hopefully...

    Might just go watch that musical now!

  • I'm following it up with the rocky horror picture show, Tim Curry is perfect in the role. 

    I wish you a speedy recovery.
