Many Crap Things Happened at Once :C
6 years ago
Wassup guys, it's fuzzbutt Daniel again!!
Recently, I've been transferred from my regular job to a new place which is much further away, or be at risk at full redundancy. I had five days to prepare to move jobs. This despite all assurances less than two weeks earlier that my job was pretty much the most secure one of all, and I wasn't where the problem lay. So now I'm getting used to a new environment and getting up way earlier in a morning. It's also cutting me off (for the most part) from my martial arts hobby, and putting my chances of grading further at risk.
Yesterday a bunch of crap stuff happened all at the same time seemingly just to make me feel more annoyed. For one, we got a cold caller--not unusual, I know, but this guy just wouldn't piss off when told like most of them do. He kept pushing and pushing and pushing, and when I hung up on them, they had the gall to call back! EIGHTEEN TIMES!!! Each with a different number!!! D:
So I decided to block it, only I couldn't remember the password for my phone security, so all the while the phone's ringing again and again until I disconnect it. It takes me four hours to get in contact with my provider.
In the midst of all that--same day--my dishwasher decides to break down. Oh, and guess what--the freaking warranty expired. Four days ago. Yeah, so now I gotta get a new one. What's worse is it's custom, specifically designed to fit with the bespoke kitchen I saved up for and spent quite a bit of money on for once... >->
So now I gotta buy a new dishwasher on top of everything else, which doesn't help my already wobbly financial situation.
Some more personal issues occurred which I won't go into, but sufficed to say I've not exactly felt inspired lately. Thankfully I've always got this place, and you people, to return to. Honestly, it's a joy to have FA. I know I say this a lot, but you guys just being there helps so much more than you know.

For the Dishwasher, if you haven't already grabbed one, maybe consider checking out your local Facebook trading sites to see if anyone is selling a basic one cheap. That could be a nice way to tide you over as a lot of the time people give them away free, purely to avoid taking them to the tip.
Martial arts wise, you'll get there. Just don't lose motivation to train a little bit. You don't need to go for your full session to maintain, just do a tiny bit every other day.
Best of luck to you dude and hang in there. Good times will come.
I'm afraid I don't have any good practical advice for that; but do your best to hang on and hopefully it will get better for you soon!
