Any one still up? Or is it only me?

Just that really. I saw in the NY at a family club. Home at 12.50. Still drinking on my own. I know how sorry I sound. 2018 was shit.

I'm deeply sorry for your losses. Will take time to heal your broken heart.

I was actually asleep by 10, then woken up by bloody noisy neighbours at 3. Now I can’t get back to sleep. I’m trying not to think about old year/new year. 2016 was horrendous, 2017 was worse, and it got worse still in 2018! So based on current patterns 2019 will be shit! So it’s better if I don’t look at it in that way. I’ve had spells of happiness in those years so I just try and hold onto that. I’ve concluded life is full of shit storms so expecting an entire year to pass without something bad happening is just unrealistic (for me at least). So now I just try and enjoy the good bits when I can.

2018 was shit for me too, OP.

But right now I’m lying by the pool with my books/magazines/mumsnet, there’s not a cloud in the sky, and I can do whatever I want for the next few days.

I thought I’d start the year as I mean to go on. :-) I hope 2019 is a great year for you.

I'm here too. 2018 was shit mostly but it was looking like 2019 was going to be a good year. I had what I thought was going to be a fabulous man in my life now it's all gone to shit!! I feel such a fool now!!
