Thank you everyone for your support today.

I’m sorry I didn’t respond to each one of you as I fell asleep listening to the radio and podcasts this afternoon.

They are all valid points and I’ll make an effort to take it all onboard.

I’m not great at reflecting on things as I’m so harsh on myself for mistakes made.

I guess the biggest thing on my mind is that I can’t rectify the problem. I’ll try in the coming months if I can.

Anyway I have to forgive myself first and that will be hard to come to terms with in the current situation as it may make my life harder in the future.

Life is like a cricket match. Sometimes you take the catches. Sometimes you get stung with the ball and it hurts but you shake yourself off and you keep playing.

Speaking of which I heard we lost by 5 wickets. Hope you didn’t watch it till the end.

We did indeed lose and I didn't watch it to the end.

And I’m sure you’re aware but the lions got over the blues tonight.

[–] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yes. A very disappointing weekend in sport for me :(

[–] Duenan@aussie.zone 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The blues did so well to start off as well then the Lions just dominated after that for the rest of the game :(

It was promising at the start then it became disappointing.

It'll be okay, friend. Things will get better; you are strong and amazing! 💜

My financial position is what worries me the most as well being too harsh on myself.

sigh

could you please be more vague

It was about messing up my car yesterday.

Dented significantly on my back rear door and caused enough damage to open it up to rust issues after I scraped it on the corner of some brickwork.

Don’t want to lose my car anytime soon.

[–] Seagoon_@aussie.zone 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

you'll be fine, it's just a car 🤗

I was worried that someone was seriously harmed

[–] Duenan@aussie.zone 3 points 1 year ago

Just me myself and I, my car and some brickwork.
