Thats cool JWH, you have given me some ideas. I often go through the local paper and see if theres anything interesting going on, or if you have a local area business telephone directory they are good to. The last time I went through the paper I ended up on a champagne day cruise, which was lovely and only cost AU$10.00. It was a great day!

Hey Jane....
I try to have interests but the passion for it never lasts long, like I tend to exercise alot but even though I do it I don't get any kind of buzz from it, well not anymore, everything is like a novelty to me. I'm constantly looking for new things to interest me....
I was looking through the paper yesterday and came across Blood Donation, I was thinking maybe I should do this, maybe the act of helping others might change my perception on the things which I can't seem to appreciate....an ex "close" friend once said to me that I need to experience a near death situation inorder for me to appreciate my life, what I have and who I am, I think she maybe right....if only!!...

True, true. Couldn't have said it better. I'm finding now, that it's kind of interesting to push myself and pass the barrier where before I would have told myself "no, I can't". Feeling occupied can be almost like an addiction, but I just don't have the energy to complete things which makes it all so frustrating.
Yes, I often feel the same. That rush of energy/pain/joy whenever something major happens is a feeling I love - pity the rest of the time I have to be miserable. I think we have to train ourselves to look at life differently and enjoy the small things more. I do that a bit too much though, so perhaps it's not a good thing. Argh!
I feel like I want to go camping or something next. I don't know if I could handle another needle though!
