I had a good day

I had a good day. I don't get to say that very often. But it's now 6:45pm and I have managed to fill up every hour and not only not be bored,.. but actually had some enjoyable moments.

The interview went well and she asked if I would like to continue on with the documentary. Of course I agreed. It sounds like a big project so I don't know about time. How long or quick it will start. But I'm looking forward to it. I'm very anxious but confident I can get over that. Part of my segment is about being unwell with mental illness so they are aware of my limitations. So fingers crossed,... this is going forward.

On top of this good news I just had a good day all around. I spent quite a bit of time outside in the gazebo. The weather is just too nice to justify sitting inside. Apparently others felt the same as there were a few others out there too. So we just sat and chatted and whilled away the time. Only getting hungry eventually dragged me back inside the dungeon. I have to get outside as much as I can right now. The leaves are already beginning to turn colour. Fall is just around the corner. And although it is my favourite season of the year, it is not always ideal for being outside with a walker. So I intend to soak up as much fresh air as I can.

I have been hanging out with a young girl from Traverse in our building. Which I didn't want to as they all eventually leave. But she is nice and we get alone well. We said today we're going to start getting together for dinner once a week. Kind of like I did with Darren. (Please don't let this turn out to another Darren). I think just having someone to cook for once a week will help me mentally. Time and being alone are my enemies right now. I need things to do. I need human contact. I need to start getting out of this dungeon! The cabin fever and boredom are slowly stealing my sanity.

But if I could have more days like I did today? I could live with that,...
