So. Its a funny space to be in. I am actually feeling depressed about it. Proper heavy low feeling. I keep thinking I want to drink a lot of wine. Which then makes me feel like an alcoholic. I am not going to drink wine, as it feels like the wrong thing to do. Besides I did that on Friday and Monday and it hasn't really made things better. I know that happiness is a choice. So I need to decide to be happy. And think of all the good things. Like how lucky I am and how I have my health and my youth (compared to some! ha!) and I even have a house to live in, plenty of food and work I love to do. So I am lucky. I love my work. I love my family. I love my friends. I love Brighton. I love dancing and I went dancing this very morning. During that dancing for a while I genuinely smiled with real joy.
I have absolutely no idea what to do about the whole Brexit fiasco. I am utterly dissapointed with the politicions we have - apart from Caroline Lucas and - it appears -most of the Scottish MPs. I particularly like Nicola Sturgeon and wish I could vote for her. She seems to have her head on straight.
I have already voted for Caroline Lucas. I guess I should consider who my MEP is. While we still have them. I can apply for an Irish passport and should it come to pass that the UK leaves the EU I will most definitely want to remain an EU citizen.
What else. I have signed a few petitions. I could write to the Labour party. And the Torys. I really really want to keep the NHS well funded. And fight for a good education system for the country. I spose. It feels fairly paltry. But hey. I feel that ACTION is the way forward. Its hard to be depressed if you are actually doing something. Harder anyway.
And the other thing I am going to do is keep thinking of positive things. LIke those kids who did random acts of kindness. And I think I will do some of those too. I did that 29 things a while back. I think I will start that again.
that's all from me. Brexit Schmexit.
