until such time ..

I don't wish to be harping on about this, but it's my journal, so; too bad, so sad (I looove that new saying btw :)
but seriously I hate to have to say this, but I'm starting to regret coming here. It's really stuffed up my system and I honestly believe it is the iron deficiency that's a large contributing factor. I went to bed directly after tea last night (dad has tea early now cos of his healthier eathing routines) so it was about 5.30 when I got to bed, then got up about 6 to eat breaky with dad, and now am sitting here still tired with no energy; don't feel refreshed or nothing. Dad is going to get me some iron tablets today and I am having some multi-vitamin tablets he has here. -- I'm starting to get a bit worried though. it's a terrible feeling; can't do anything; thank god I haven't, but we want to go out for tea tonight and we usually would walk; don't know if I could cope, *grrr*
I obviously was fine at home; sure, mentally I was down but at least I didn't feel like I couldn't have a life! Yes, long (14+ hour) plane trips are surely a nightmare, but who would have thought it'd mess my body up this much? not me; not usually.
When I get back from my two holidays, I am going back to Vision Australia to find work as my current agency is doing nothing at all for me. (don't know why I decided to throw that one in then, but ah well).
also in other news, this morning when I checked my email, i read that norm Pine, one of our frequent members of the computer group, died after being hit by a car yesterday; that is so so so tragic! Life can just be cut short so easily! I of course didn't know him that well, but when they're so close to home like that, it's just such a shock! R.I.P mate!

great film!

While in bed today trying to recover, one of the many things I continued listening to was the film made in 1973 Seven Little Australians. I still haven't finished it yet, but it's just great, and it does pretty closely reflect the book; in fact, I am pretty surprised. And I only knew the exact year of the film as I looked at the above link.
It's amazing; I am always working out the age certain people would be now; eg. there's a documentary that was done on the film, and the girl Jeniffer who plays Judy was sixteen then, and after reading that article, I was able to work out she'd be 53 this year; I still find aging sad, therefore, it always stunns me when I work out such information.
I've been listening to my old neighbours eppisodes too as well as some comedy.
We do plan to go out for dinner shortly where I will hopefully be able to cope with a little walking.
I thought I was going to collapse in the shower before; it was terrible; then I had a minor panick attack because of it, which I hadn't had in years thanks to my lovely dogs.
Ah well hopefully this iron will help me, and I am greatful to a number of faithful LJ readers of mine who have been offering support! I appreciate all the words.
