Guest Posted May 18, 2019 Posted May 18, 2019 I must say people of higher class in Peru are so detestable. They are unbelievably cold and arrogant. The worst type are the ones that hate the country and everything about it yet they support the Peruvian national football team. I am of that class but I am so different to the rest of them. Makes me almost ashamed to be in their category. Quote

Expand Its the same in most third world countries more so in some than others, elite class mostly are a bunch of self hating wannabe westerns who despise everything about their culture and country. The funny thing is they often themselves are treated like trash by White westerns but act like the same in their home countries as you said cold and arrogant Quote

Administrator Stan Posted May 22, 2019 Administrator Posted May 22, 2019 Anyone else just randomly start to feel a bit...shit? Even though everything in life seems quite rosy on the outset, I'm not sure if it's worries about work, family, money or just feeling worn down that's got me feeling like this tonight. Last couple of nights' sleep haven't been too great but I can't pinpoint on what it could be. Feel at a bit of a loss at the moment. 1 Quote

This week in particular has been a bad one for me personally, had a pretty bad chest infection the past 4 or 5 days and I have been waking up every hour coughing for the last 3 nights and for the life of me can't get any decent sleep and it's been a shift week on for me so I have been drained.. I have also been feeling a bit run down in other respects for the past couple of months and can't quite put my finger on whats wrong.. feel drained of energy and that's not like me at all.. I think having all the kids in the house has not helped as you never seem to get a moments peace and although I love my kids/Grandchildren you just crave a bit of peace and quiet for a change.. I can't help thinking that has something to do with it for me... 1 Quote

Think I'll probably feel the same as you when I have 1 of my own let alone more than 1 or having grandchildren! I'm not sure why I feel so down at the moment. Usually I can pinpoint it especially if it's affecting my sleep as I usually sleep well. Funnily enough I actually had a dream last night that I was lost in this vast airport (think Heathrow or Gatwick x10) and no matter which way I turned I kept looping back on myself and couldn't find a way out. Really disconcerting and somewhat disturbing really. Maybe I'm just overthinking stuff. Quote

Expand Funny how worries and thoughts play on the mind... could be worries that are not all that obvious or just a period you are going through... Dreaming that you are lost indicates that you have lost your way in life. You need to get back on track. You are unsure where the right way to head is. If you are asking for help it means you realize that you cannot do things on your own and you want people to advise you. On the other hand, you might be places in a new situation that you are still trying to find your way around. If you dream of someone else being lost is suggests some problems you are having finding aspects of yourself. You have lost some aspect, you could notice in that person, which makes up your identity.

Expand I am trying to sort a few things out to give us a break where I can just for our own sanity... just so much going on it's proving to be more difficult than I thought.. funny enough I was talking to my sister only this week and she asked how things were because her partner had noticed that I was a bit under the weather and not my normal self the last time they were up so we had a chat about a few things and she said we were always welcome to go stay with them for a bit if we needed a break, she does not have kids herself and when she sees all the stuff we are going through with ours and the grandchildren she is fine keeping it that way.. Strange really, I always thought that later in life the kids would have been all grown up and flown the nest like my eldest son has and yet we still have 3 and now we have their children in tow as well... it's just constant every day and I know it can't be good, I was always hoping that by now me an the other half would have been free to enjoy ourselves a bit more and pursue things we might like but it's not panning out like that at all... I mean we have had Leelah living with us for over 4 years now and now we have Mia as well and we have had one holiday for 5 days in that whole time where it was just me and the missus... Now I am not an over emotional type person or anything by any stretch but it's clear to me that I am not the same person I was a year ago, my outlook has been less positive and if you knew me personally you might find that hard to believe because on the outside I always come across with the same passion and enthusiasm I always have but inside I feel like all the positives are just slowly ebbing away bit by bit and it's changing me... I even had one of my team come up to me and ask if I was ok only yesterday which is worrying... I have always been good at keeping the home/work thing separate but if it's becoming obvious to my team as well that something is up I can't ignore that, I told him I appreciated him asking but I was fine and we cracked on.. I will find a way to climb out of this hole because I always have and always will it's just in my nature but it's getting a lot tougher to do than it used to.. Quote

Expand I honestly don't know how you two manage it, to be fair... now personally I'm a bit of a loner, so obviously even the thought of having so many people (especially including toddlers!) in the house all the time makes me feel uneasy, but even someone who is a family person needs some alone-time and opportunity to relax and enjoy things on their own... Add work responsibilities to the equation, and it's no wonder you feel drained of energy most of the time. Definitely take a break as soon as you can.

Carnivore Chris Posted May 24, 2019 Posted May 24, 2019 (edited) Another decent little copper cash in us boys had this week @SirBalon. We got aload of armoured cable, which the cable pullers let us have and it came up to a total of £1,200 between 5 of us. Not bad at all. It's free money really as we stripped it all while in working hours. Can't complain with that.
