Thought we could have another How are you thread to bounce some Good feelings along & support those of us that may not be feeling Up at the mo :)

I'll start,

Me I am feeling Pretty Damn good :cool:
Works got easier over the last couple of days & generally inside I feel fine. Xmas & cash could have worked out better but I am not letting it get to me, I will either get paid on Xmas eve or I won't. I won't get to see my Daughter & grandson over Xmas either which is a bit crap, Well a Lot crap tbqfh but Nope that won't get me down either, Well not till Xmas day afternoon anyways ;D
Everybody understands my situation though & I have been proper pleased with the support I've had from my Friends & Family :cool:
All in all I feel pretty damn good.

How do you feel ?

:) Always nice feeling good! Shame about not seeing the family and the cash situ, but fingers crossed work pull their fingers out and get it sorted!

Feeling pretty happy meself, the missus met the parents last night (first time!) over in Santa Barbara and apparently had a great evening, got on well which was nice, so she's really happy and of course I am too! :p At the moment got a big job out of the door yesterday so now just tying things up with work ready to head to Heathrow tomorrow for a good trip away..looking forward to the break from work!!

All good pretty much, though still have to do Xmas shopping :eek:

Feeling tired (was up at 440) but otherwise ok.

Not feeling down as I was yesterday evening, and also not feeling as bad as I have been over the past few months or even the past year. A lot has happened and I'm trying to turn over a new leaf despite there being a whole bunch of stuff happening.

I'm not unhappy, I'm feeling a bit more with it and I think I'm slowly getting control of my life back, but I'm not happy either. I'm sort of between the two.

I'm trying to get back to my positive happy go lucky sort of mindset - I'll get there, I've had a lot of help from various people I'm heading on the right track. :)

I'm feeling swamped. The day before Xmas Eve and everyone suddenly has an urgent software/laptop/email problem 'that needs sorting before Christmas'. Some people are going to be disappointed.

Not sure how I feel at the moment. Happy at home but not that happy at work. Things are slowing down at the moment and still getting all the lovely family arguments that go with a family business.

Optimistic for a change ;D

Could barely see the break in the X-ray this morning and I don't have to go back for 2 weeks :) I'll hopefully be back to work shortly after New Year and with luck I won't lose too much pay.

Also got home to find Lee from work had posted a few Christmas cards from my department which was nice, so I'm trying to finally get in the Christmas spirit. Dad is picking me up tomorrow morning to spend a couple of days at theirs and I'm quite pleased about the pressies I've got my family too. :)

I am feeling worn out and feel in a muddle because my baby isn't sleeping well atm especially past couple of nights due to being poorly.
I need sleep at bedtime not at 7am :( but apart from that I am pretty happy.
Feeling excited right now...... its almost xmas :D and I can't wait to see my babies open their presents and to see faysh open his :D
Plus I get to spend xmas with my niece too.

Kelly, fingers crossed for you not losing too much hun :)

I feel ready for a break.

Me and Daz havent had a holiday for 3+ years, and so have never had a holiday together. Christmas is just what we both need. Ive framed some family pics for presents this year, its better seeing the looks on other people faces this time of year :)

I am sat at work knowing Ive got nothing left to do, but I wont be leaving until 5.15pm. After that, I'll feel great :)

I'm ace thanks :D

New year is shaping up to be a great one hopefully, although I've got to try and get fit and get pissed less apparantly :p

Same. I reckon I've got 9 hours worth of work stuff today, and that's before packing and wrapping the last two Xmas presents. Going to be a long day. :(

I'm feeling pretty impatient.

I've knocked out everything that had to be done this year and can't find any enthusiasm for work that can wait until January.

I just want the clock to reach 5 so I can run out of the door and start Christmas. \o/

A clap on the shoulder and an enthusiastic 'Buck up, mate' to everyone with more to worry about than me at the moment. :)

I'm not going to add too much other than to say if I can hold myself together until bedtime I'll call today a raging success.

I read that as 'raping' :huh:

Anyhoo.

I'm feeling a bit ill and a bit anti-social. Someone's been trying to call me all morning and i've not picked up. :/

Not bad, been really ill for the last few days with this virus that's going round so been off work but I reckon I'll be over it by tomorrow leaving Christmas free. Hope I didn't give it to the frail old man in the barbers, I helped him get up but in hindsight my courtesy might not have been the best idea :/

That's how posting on certain other forums can affect you ;) :D

As for the anti-social bit, that's what computers will do to you :(

I am now bored.

Me and my colleague are playing the name game.

Any other suggestions for "easy-to-play-in-the-office-without-getting-caught" games appreciated ;)

Not bad. :)

Work feels as if I am marking time at best. I am off to another department January 5th.

I look at little Matthew though, including his raft of ****ty nappies, and it all has a purpose though. :)

Tomorrow is my last day at work and I'm chuffed (and knackered) as hell! 10mins to go and I have tomorrow to doss around! :D

Matblack
23-12-2008, 17:01
Meh :/

I sit in an office alone and watch House or play online poker using my netbook and mobile. Tomorrow I finish at 1 then pick Aitch up in West London and spend hours in traffic going down to Wales. Things could be worse, it will be a nice relaxing christmas with Mum and Dad

While im physically ready (presents are all bought and I just need to wrap them) due to various things going on in my life I am unfortunately really struggling to get excited and look forward to Christmas.
Wish I could snap out of this too.

Trying to get a hire car - the gear linkage has gone in my car and I don't have time to fix it.

Arse. :(

Absolutely knackered :( still have Christmas presents to wrap and still have 1 remaining present to arrive which I'll need to wrap tomorrow.

Well I was supposed to have finished at 4.00pm on the nail yesterday that kind of drifted to 5.00. Spent most of this morning trying to sort out a product shortage for one of my customers. Great start to the holidays

Other than that everything is gravy.

Presents wrapped - Check

Food Shopping - Check

Food for tomorrow night - Check

Mulled Wine at the ready - Check

I'm feeling pretty good at the moment :)

Work is going well, I'm on holiday at the moment for christmas and get good freedom for holidays when I want them.
I'm moving in with 2 people from work to get some company in my life and save a hell of a lot of money.
Most of all I'll get a bigger kitchen!

SHAC have been prosecuted, which is good in my opinion, they've been terrorising people that do very crucial research, and in some instances terrorising people that are not involved in any animal products.


I'm looking forward to the new year, and hope that I'll get out some more.

At my parents, all my presents under the tree, had a full week of booze and fun already! On the downside I came back from Leeds yesterday and left my girlfriend there with her family :(

Trying to stay positive.

In the last couple of weeks my older brother has been diagnosed with cancer. He has had surgery and the doctors are as sure as they can be that they have removed it all - but it's still a bit of a worry *crosses fingers*
Also, I found out today that my eldest stepdaughter lost a baby girl at 16 weeks on the 12th :(

I'm glad I'm home to spend some time with the family just now :)

I'm so sorry to hear that Stan. There is never a good time for anything like that to happen :( Keeping my fingers crossed that they've managed to get every last little bit.

As for me, I'm alright. :)

As for me, awake. The rest is optional but maybe later. :)

Not going to make the train I'd planned on catching though. :(

December up to today is a bad month which is why I've not been around too much.

I've had staff appraisals to do and budget. We have a 25% cost reduction in development for next year. A few people I know ain't going to have a good start to the new year.

Don't fret about it mate :)

Had a lovely time with family over Christmas. Big bro was pretty much himself and staying positive. Just spoke to him just now and he's been to have his op area checked and everything is fine. He'll be getting a scan in a few weeks time to check everything but, as I said before, the doctors are fairly confident they've got it all. Hopefully there should be no need for nasty chemotherapy or radiotherapy.

Thanks to all for all your kind thoughts :)

Here's hoping all the bad stuff buggers off for everyone.

I am a man of few needs, I've just had a Tesco microwave Korma and a diet coke, home time in an hour and a half and I get a (sort of) lie in in the morning as I'm doing defib training which doesn't start till 08:00.

I'm feeling pretty darned good.
