@Frankie Crisp Absolutely no boredom or bumming out here. Lovely to read. Photos are wonderfully heartbreaking thing for me - especially after I lost my dad in 2009 and more recently my son this year. I struggle with both for various reasons - not having nearly enough with my dad, and not being ready to be able to enjoy the ones of my son yet. But keep writing and keep sharing. Beautiful, funny tales deserve to be heard.

@Frankie Crisp happy stories will never bum people out.  I’ve recently got back into miniature war gaming and have started to build an American Civil War Army, as subject that I thought I knew very little about.  My dad was a big fan of that period, waffled on about it endlessly to the point that as I’m building army and reading up on the facts, I knew most of them from what I’d absorbed from him.  Good, happy thoughts.  It’s great that you’re going through the photos and getting the good times rolling in your head to replace the intense sadness.  It will get better.

Spent Halloween wandering around Sleepy Hollow in New York. It was the coolest thing ever seeing all the decorations, people in costumes and the Headless Horseman. This is me in the Old Dutch Church Cemetery where Washington Irving is buried.

Nice one! Every time Bargain Hunt comes on I think about him and everyone else in his pub trying on another patrons BH fleece that she won on the show. I hope he’s doing well

Not much has changed.  Still mostly anecdotes of having a shit.

Top picture, from about the summer of last year, at almost the height of my recent issues with substances, depression, anxiety, eating issues and also getting into fights with walls. Not proud of it, and only posting to hopefully put anyone on here off turning to substances to cope, this is what could happen, please resist 

Bottom, taken a few minutes ago, its only 3.45am, and im aware its hardly a glow up or anything, and im still not fully clean, but doing a bit better for sure, this place helps me better than i can express with words. 

As someone with my kinda personality and issues, i have always found it incredibly difficult to fit in and stuff like that, and to be accepted on here for how i am i really am grateful for
