2026 spring.

March 18.
Haven't been much bothered with writing.
Time has passed quickly.
Spring feels good.
I have no troubles.
All I been doing is working.
It has kept me occupied.
But I might go soon.
The salary is poor,
And the scheme is shutting down.
Someone called Lois left.
It felt sad, even though I didn't really like them.
Yeah, I am just hanging around.
More fool me.

March 28.
Sad and lonely days.
Keeping myself busy is hard.
I need to make the effort.

April 7.
Things have fallen apart a little,
But I'm not that totally fussed.
For a start, it's just me out here.
And for second it was bound to happen.
Going to try and sort things out.
Even though there's never been anyone,
I still can't get used to it.
Baby steps for now, it's the best I can do.

April 8.
Today was stressful.
Been enquiring with various careers consultants.
Today, one suggested I was lying about my work history!
Sick joke or not- that's not how you get customers.
And this saga with sending back the laptop jesus christ.
Meant to go to a relaxation class but was too stressed.
Still, I found another consultant who looks great.
They work with grads, so this looks like my break.
If only it wasn't for that laptop parcel business.
Been resting a lot since losing the job,
Exercising, reading, playing guitar,
Slowly getting into a sanity mode.
I look and feel better.
Even though it's still hard to eat.
Tomorrow, I'll keep picking through my tasks.

April 9.
Today I did 10k steps for the first time in a long time.
It was cold and rainy, but I didn't mind.
Done the initials on my consultant enquiries, I think.
Soon it'll be down to making a choice.
Started reworking my CV from the ground up
In preparation for when I go back to work in May.
Exercise has made me tired, so I am going to rest.

April 12.
Weather's been weird, started off warm, then turned chilly.
Just know the summer will be a tough one.
Finished my CV the best I possibly can.
In a week or two it will be back to the market.
But I want to speak to that consultant first.

April 13.
Feel dead. In one of those moods maybe.
Trying to force myself to eat.
Been trying to keep busy, calling round.
The parcel saga is finally over, thank god.
Going to wander around town again, I suppose.

April 14.
A real job can support a family.
I've thought about this my whole life.
And there's the answer all along.
No more questions no more mystery.
