Well after so long on this earth I have finally made it to forty years old. Today, Saturday, I celebrate my birthday in a way that all parents should. I had the day with my kids, doing various parenting things. I have done some reading and writing with my five year old twins as well as some... Sign in to see full entry.

The hurt should have stopped by now
Yesterday, Friday, I found out something that hurt me and shouldn't have. After being without my wife for five months I found out that she had not only got herself a new place to live, but she had also got a new man in her life. I don't understand why I was hurt as much as I was because I was... Sign in to see full entry.

A problem for a writer
I am not sure why but I seem to have hitt a period of writer's block and my two fiction blogs and indeed this one have been lacking in new entries. I am unsure of what has caused this problem but I feel that it is a minor inconvenience that, hopefully, will be rectified in the very near future.... Sign in to see full entry.

Can paranoia cause insomnia?
How long does the average human being need to sleep at night to function at 100%? Is it possible to be fully alert with only an hour or two napping in a chair? I ask these questions as I seem to have developed either insomnia or a paranoid fear of sleep. I have not been able to sleep for the last... Sign in to see full entry.

My son and the law
My son, the one who took my car, has finally had to answer bail. He was charged with driving with no licence, no insurance, aggravated vehicle taking and dangerous driving. These charges have left me worrying even more for his future because, although what he did was seriously wrong and punishment... Sign in to see full entry.
Yet more gross incompetence
The incompetence of people in office in this country gets worse by the day. Having sent off not one but two sets of forms for travel costs and school meals today I am informed that the place where I sent them has managed to lose both sets, leading to me needing to find £60 for three weeks school...

School Time Shock
Arriving at school today I was given a shock by one of my son’s teacher’s. She came running over to me to inform me that the paramedic car that was in the car park was there for my autistic son. This caused me to rush into school to find out what had happened and how he was. Apparently whilst out in... Sign in to see full entry.

The Past
This will probably be the shortest thing I ever write but I need to know. Why does the past come back to haunt us? Why can't people accept that we all have a past? I really wish I had all the answers but I don't. Sign in to see full entry.

Afraid of the truth
For my whole life I have had a condition that affects my body and until this minute I have kept it from people. Not to be deceitful or to gain any type of advantage, but because I am scared. Scared that once everybody knows the whole story I will find that all my friends from various social... Sign in to see full entry.

Return of the car
Finally I received my car back from the repairers and I am really pleased with the way it looks and handles. The company that did the work did a fantastic job. It looks like a brand new showroom model, inside and out. The amount of damage caused amounted to just over £3500 and at one stage the... Sign in to see full entry.
