This might be the last blog I write for few days because I am hoping to go camping. If the campsite has decent WiFi, I might be able to update it, but I rather think I am going to stay away from all social media while I am there.
Going camping is part of my attempt to reintegrate myself into life. I am hoping that if I can socialise with strangers on the campsite, it might make going back to work slightly easier. I have cut myself off from the outside world and I do need to get back to it. I bumped into a colleague today and felt quite awkward, even though she was very kind and understanding. As much as I say that I am not ashamed of my illness, I am concerned that a few people will be hostile to me.
The weather forecast is excellent for the next few days, so I am hoping to get some serious miles and hills done, on my bike. I am still hoping to do the Nello bike ride in a few weeks. To be honest, I am fit enough to do the distance, its again more about seeing people that concerns me. There will be lots of people from my school there and again it could be uncomfortable. Also the youngsters have been training hard and I want to ride with them.
I am also hoping to do some reading when I am away. I don't do much reading but do enjoy it when I have a good book. I have got Ruby Wax's Sane New World which will be interesting, as it is about mindfulness, I also have a couple of novels and Bradley Wiggins' autobiography to read again.
