Ho hum, today was a bit of a mixed bag really. It's been very windy round here, though it seems to have been windy all over the UK. No damage to our property, as far as I know, but part of one of Mum and Dad's sheds flew off (corrugated iron). It's the one where John (my brother) keeps all his tools and things. He'd tried to engineer some sort of temporary roof using pieces of wood, though apparently it will act more as a channelling device for water than something to actually stop the water getting in. If it rains, which hopefully it won't. They're in Essex, as opposed to Leicester, where I am.

Other bad John news is that he's had a crash and caused at least £500 of damage to his car, so looks like new car time. I think it's only worth about £800. They said there's no guarantee that they wouldn't fix it all and find something was out of alignment, so it would cost even more to fix. I think he's looking at Ford Focuses. He was supposed to be coming to visit this weekend for Rob's birthday (that's my husband). This is the second time he's written a car off by having an argument with a kerb...

Other news is more 'me' related. Went to the doctor yesterday because I've been having an odd time lately, I keep crying at just about anything that happens. I was painting the back door on Sunday and couldn't stop crying because it wasn't perfect. And I nearly cried watching Herbie Fully Loaded... I don't think it should have that effect really. Apparently I have some of the symptoms of depression, though they could be being caused by anti-baby pills Microgynon. I don't think I'd be the first person for them to cause problems with. I think I've been a bit emotionally inclined since getting married, but I'm pretty sure it's not Rob's fault. So it might be the pill. I hope so, if it's not better in 3 months of not taking it then I might have to have anti-depressants. :(

Hopefully it's been getting worse because of some sort of pill taking cumulative effect, or maybe it affects me more because I've lost lots of weight (3 stone so far, if anyone cares!). I know some drug dosages depend on body weight, so perhaps the pill works like that too. I suppose I would always have been susceptible to it, just shows up more now. If it is that. Which I really hope it is. Feel like I'm going a bit mad really!

Anyway, better go to sleep now. (Something I do very well, apparently not what you should be like if you're depressed...)

Bye!
