Visible to anyone in the world

What i assumed to be an exciting Grand Prix turned out to be the most boring Grand Prix I have watch for quite some time. I have spent the weekend charging my batteries and i hope to get stuck in to some hardcore painting tomorrow, it's good to have something to keep me busy indoors while the wet and wind continues to consume the outdoors, it's worked out quite well as i should be finishing painting in time for the change of weather and then i will be able to continue with the assembly of my shed, two abled persons would have taken eight hours to assemble the metal shed, i, n the other hand have had the shed over a month and i am two thirds of the way through, that should give you a brief idea of how my physical capabilities have declined ever since i entered in to an abusive relationship almost 5 years ago which left me with a chronic nerve condition that still has a massive impact on the way i live my life. 

On the upside i am arranging another charity sky dive, once my court case is over, to show gratitude for CGL (Change Grow Live) which is the substance misuse charity that has been supporting me over the last few years. CGL took over The Recovery Partnership of who i worked for before i went in to rehab in 2016 and then when on to met my abusive ex where my life dramatically turned for the worse within the two years i was with her, i managed a charity sky dive for The Recovery Partnership, again, to show gratitude and at the same time i managed to raise £1060 and i plan to do the same for CGL, plus, the sky dive will play a major role in my recovery both mentally and physically, of course this time i have my physical medical condition to adhere to, so i am guess i will have to pass some kind of medical. 

Once my court case is over will be attempting to change the way i medicate my mental health conditions and my physical conditions, i am to move towards a holistic approach to treat all three conditions and moving away from the over the counter prescribed medication of which i take five different types of medication involving 16 tablets per day, i have been doing this for the last three years and although i seem to be managing, there seems to be no end in sight, as i have been taking anti-psychotics, anti-depressants, pain stabilisers and nerve control medication i have the side effects from each medication to deal plus the withdrawal from each medication in turn, i can not just simply stop taking them.
