Moving & Change

Been trying thinking about moving to a new place. But at the same time I also need to change jobs / companies. These 2 massive changes have been conflicting (I should find a new job first so I can move somewhere closeby vs I want to move somewhere better). I really need to do one or both.

Also with this is the thought of buying a property. Not completely out of reach but slightly.. If I do, I can kiss goodbye 4-6 hours a day travelling to and from work based on far out of town I’d have to buy. I also don’t have a car or license so I’d be a the mercy of public transport. There are some “affordable” apartments but they’re apartments.. the value won’t go up much and there’s a bunch of issues and extra costs like body corp, etc.

I also need a new mattress.. but I don’t own my current one it came with the apartment I’ve been renting for 15 years. The owners changed and the new owners are utterly useless. I had a leaky shower for months / years before they fixed it, and I have a broken smoke alarm they still haven’t fixed. Imagine asking them to replace a mattress.. something effortful? Ain’t no way.

Other than this just feeling kinda indifferent about everything. Had my birthday and didn’t really care or celebrate. Ate takeaways. Work is just the same shit. Manager had to take a sudden medical leave and that’s just thrown every issue we’ve had into too hard basket I guess. One of my colleagues is overworked but he and my manager doesn’t want to spread the load and I can’t be bothered asking. I’ve been asking and putting myself forward for years and nothings been done, so what’s the point of trying?

Anyways I guess that’s it for me. Not exactly active I guess but nobody can say anything to me anyway.
