Take my hand
Time passing by with nothing changing
The hope of change leading to nothing
A recurring word and a recurring feeling
Of emptiness and failure
Of shortfalling and failure
Or a lack of all but failure.I take a step to try to change
But in my strength I do nothing
All alone inside my mind
Needing something to fill the void
And all I see or feel or hear
Is nothing.And again I fail
See no way out
No hope of change
Or hope at all
Lord, free me now
And take my hand.
My way
My hope
My all.






Poetry. I like it. I used to write poems but they were rubbish.
Hee hee…
I am rubbish at it too but I like it so thought I would subject you all to them. You should do the same. It’s fun.
I had some change on Friday - another birthday, another year older - but never as old as Matt!
I like the poem - it’s melancholy (a good poem word me thinks!).
Andy, with regard to your status. You were worried your blog had died before but then we heard about Isaac and everyone started talking again and the whole name thing and Amazon went on and the sweepstake and all that. You need to have another baby. I like your poem.
or a sweep stakes on Amazon’s first word…I am rooting for ‘Matey’ as in ‘Hi matey’, or ‘thanks matey’.
Sorry I’ve not been blogging it up for a while, I have literally not stopped since I got back from camp. I had something interesting to say the otherday as well, ive forgotten it now tho.
Susie, I can’t remember when you said your thing in Edinburgh was…Hows was it? / are you having a good time on it? / Did you have a good time on it? (delete as appropriate).
On sunday I go to scarbrough, where I will be doing my placements until feb. The good news is that there is a possibility of getting t’internet in the accommodation (I don’t quite know how it all works till I get there), so then I can keep up to date with you all. My first block will be neurology, not looking forward to that, sounds too much like hard work. 4th year is scary, I kind of actually need to know stuff now.
Belated happy birthday flipperr!
Pete, I got back today. It was great. I saw many famous people and lea. Including Phil Collinson. You will be dissapointed to know I didn’t pluck up the courage to go and tell him he’s brilliant and to get David Tennat’s phone number for Katie. Its the biggest regret of my life.
I was writing ‘and learnt lots’ in there so you didn’t just think I went to spot famous people. But this computer has a mind of its own and it decided to submit the comment before I finished! I also spelt Katie’s fiancee’s name wrong. I apologise.
I thought you were saying ‘I saw many famous people and the Local Education Authority’. Glad you had a good time, u will have to tell me all about it next time ur in hull
I’ve not been online for a while because I’ve been assembling IKEA items.
I hate IKEA.
I knew it was going to be bad when Carolyn said “I think we should take the Church minibus to IKEA”. On reflection, that was the moment when I should have run for the hills.
But now our house looks great!!!
Today I cycled, got on a train, cycled a bit more, got in a car, just to do a home visit for 1 chld with the peadartic Occupational therapist. Then I got in a car, cycled, got on a train, then cycled a bit more to get home again. It was good to see what the OT did, but it was rather a lot of effort just to see 1 child.
Tomorrow I will cycle, then get a train, then get in a car, then attend a community Peads Clinic, then get back in the car, then get a train, then cycle to a GP surgery to go on home visits with Health Visitors. Then cycle home. Again, it all sounds like a lot of traveling effort. I am hoping that the second train might be running a late. I think I need either learn the art of Apparation, hire a chauffeur named Les, or get a car.
Aren’t you getting your cousin’s car?
yes…tomorrow! to be honest, I think that is why i have been even more frustrated than normal about all the times I could do to have a car, but don’t have one. Very excited about it tomorrow tho. I am going to have to drive it from bradford to York, then to Hull, so that should refresh my right back into driving
It was actually me that asked about the car. I accidentally disguised myself as Dad. Enjoy your new car.
ah, that makes sense. I was a little surprised that Dad remembered about my car in such detail (well…that I am buying it from my cousin). I concluded that he must just be a very attentive Dad.
is this too harsh…?
Last night a few of my housemates went ‘out’. They got back at 4am and decided it would be a good time for a house party, thus managing to wake up me, and our neighbors, who complained. The main perpetrator of the party is in the Room next to me, and the walls are not that thick. Also, even following an early night he rarely gets up before 12 if he dosent have to, so following last night he will be wanting a big lie in… So at 10am this morning I decided that I would like to listen to some loud, bassy music, loud enough so I could hear it while in the shower. By the time I got out of the shower it had been turned off…perhaps it was a bit too harsh, but I enjoyed it. And 10am is a much more sociable time than 4 am.
Nice one, Pete. Reminds me of when JAK&S were in their teens and we lived next door to a houseful of students of the noisy returning home late at night variety. After particularly late noisy nights I used to encourage JAK&S to have their radios/music on loudly in the morning as they got ready for school. Several different lots of music at 7.00a.m. - brilliant.
Did anyone else read our initials as Jackass?
