Not one usually for emotive ponderings, but  I’ve been in a bit of a funk this week.

Mmy birthday didn’t go all that well, but I’ve never really been a birthday person – but as you get older you tend to get a bit more sentimental about such things. I’d taken the day off to mark the occasion, but as it transpired there wasn’t an awful lot of point in doing so, and I might as well have just worked through and ignored it completely.

Then a general lack of sleep, probably due to the funk itself created a feedback loop.

I’ve got my annual holidays (or the bulk at least) coming up starting mid-week and it will be good to get recharge for a bit, although a lot depends on the weather. April was stupidly good, May in comparison has been utter pants. There is time for the month to redeem itself – hopefully, or it’s going to be a bit boring for the two weeks.
