Zebra Crossing

Things are black, things are white, and then a few things are grey. Less of the grey though, as that's not a natural colour for me. Black and White are certainly a natural colour. Things in my life reflect these colours and right now things are most certainly White.

I've often written how an event has brightened up my life, the conference in October, the night out in December, well yesterday's meeting in Bristol was another. Whilst it was a serious meeting and one in which we got through a lot of work, it was fun as well. Just to socialise with others and to be able to feel that I contributed to the meeting. Often I sit back listen, throw in a few things, but they tend not to be listened too. Yesterday was the opposite, though I only threw a few things into the hat, I felt that they were being listened too and that alone made it worth while.

The social side of it also helped and I'm more than happy to admit that part of me is enjoying that aspect more than being part of it for work. I know that work will not be 100% happy with that, but so what, if these meetings are all boring then what would happen? Nothing as nothing would be resolved and everyone will leave feeling a little down hearted. I enjoyed my time in Bristol, the next meeting is in Cardiff, which will be fun as I do like the city for sure.

That's the white, and for now the black is certainly under the white side (memories are made of this, where was I when Norman Whiteside scored for United against Everton in 1985, answer behind the goal going mental.) Whoops sorry couldn't resist that little trip down memory lane with the term Whiteside. Good old Norman, still a hero of mine today. What I wouldn't do to have a fit young Norman playing for United today!!

See that's just proof as to how good I'm doing right now, I'm going off at tangents and that tends to be a very good sign for me. I'm loving it, I really am. What has got into me then? I really don't know, why all of a sudden am I flying off in tangents when things haven't really been that good of late, but then they haven't been that bad either? I think it might be the fact that once again I'm feeling more relaxed and not carrying any sort of stress on my shoulders. If that is the case then it's good, but I've got the worry of my last lot of blood tests, which showed a significant rise in the liver results. I know I've done that road before, and it's been looked at by specialists, yet right now it doesn't really bother me. I'm just being me.
