Welcome to Episode 146 of my podcast The view from the crow's nest. And it is Wednesday the 28th of October 2020 challenging dates, they were challenging. I. We had a training this morning with our personal trainer and that was fine. But as is always the case by the time that finished you know Simona had her session that I had my session then had a shower. You know, it's like half 11 in the morning and the whole morning is gone. And then, mama went out with the kids. So theoretically I can really focus on work but instead, I had to our broken to our phone call, like over 20 different calls because the with, with my brother, because he was on a train, and it kept cutting. Whoops, I just dropped a guitar. And then someone was calling and then. And by the time all that happened and I tried to get anything done et cetera et cetera it's like 330, you know, and I hadn't even started working, and I just got into quite a bad mood. Because I'm just not getting anywhere with anything, at least it feels like a really I'm not. And then I had some bad news regarding an investment today or potentially bad news. About a month ago a bit longer. Actually, We had a news that one of our investments that had grown to be about 25% of what we've got. And that's probably gone, and then today I found another 20, another investment then grown to about 25% is also quite possibly gone as well. And it just comes at the same time that, you know, there's no business coming in, got my money but money streaming out. You know, I've got to get health insurance which is going to cost me a few hundred euros. Before I can get my residence here and then that will cost you know there's always like 2030 euros for this or 2030 euros for the stamp or this or the other and it will cost another hundred plus euros. And it's just, it's just never ending it's just constant at the minute from every angle. So, and then print chief above all of it I think I feel fine I feel generally quite optimistic or fine if I was getting anything creative and personal done you know any music any writing, you know anything about I'm really not so I'm feeling. I'm feeling. Yeah, no flow and like it's all happening from every angle and I'm struggling to to cope basically not cope massively strong but I'm struggling to keep positive. On top of everything and it will pass. The main thing is that we've all got our health. And, you know, we will always have a roof over our head and food on the table and eventually fucking internet. And then when that happens. I'm running water and electricity as well. And gas. But when that happens we finally get broadband and because the internet's ropey as well it's going to my phone and it's not working properly and it's gonna take another couple of weeks. Minimum before we can get broadband, this saga is going to take like two, two and a half months to get broadband into this place. So, you know, he'll happen they all come out here and next year will be different and blah blah but at the moment it's challenging it really is. So, yeah, I had a bit of a better afternoon for the last couple hours at least I was doing some stuff but not for me but for a client. You know, which is necessary and you know I want them to get good results, but again it's, it's not really where I'm wanting to be. So, that is the view from the crow's nest today, possibly even bleaker than yesterday's view. Tomorrow's another day. Let's see what happens tomorrow. That's all I got. How was your day. Let me know that Romeo crow on Twitter. Otherwise I'll speak to you tomorrow. Toodle Pip.
