Tired and Pizza

[Wednesday 16th June 2010]

Three or four days after I came back to Italy I have started to feel incredibly tired. It might be the weather that does not help, surely the lack of sleep at night also doesn't help too.
Now I am trying with drinking camomile it helps a little.

I guess that there are far too many things going around my head, and a lot of things need to be sorted out quickly, so I am on the "roll" under several points of view, not just the sentimental side.

If all goes to plan this week I might land the new car that I was meant to buy, it will be a used car, as I have to minimize costs.
At the same time the house situation might clear up a little, and there might be the case that I have to plan a quick exit from the present apartment to rent somewhere-else.

The main idea on the house situation is to find some place to actually buy, but I have no clue whatsoever at the moment of what and where I want to buy a house, and that makes things undoubtedly difficult, I guess I need to start seeing something...

At the same time things at work are on the move, I am already planning the trip in July which will be quite long, and as if things were not enough like that the friend with the travel agency that I am helping for the Japanese tours is also in need of much more support on my side as the holidays are drawing closer.

Yesterday I went out with Francesco, after a million years that we didn't go out together for dinner, just the two of us. I guess, well I know, that he read the blog so he wanted to see how I was doing... Nice dinner, nice chat, he also agrees that I need to clear out the clutter that I have in front of me, and by clutter I mean all those practical things that need to be sorted to start over again.

But the bottom line is that I am tired, and I hate being like this... Maybe I should start using those "power drinks" that I bough in Japan?

Good luck with the car, Lox! A necessary accessory these days but one which takes so much money! :-( I'd like a Tesla Sportster but ...

As for buying a property - I really sympathise with you on this. But if you can afford to buy something in a nice area then the value will surely increase as the years go by. It is probably as good an investment as you can make these days - as long as it doesn't fall down!! Make sure it's insured!

I can imagine it must be very disorientating having to travel so much. You need to be able to stand still and concentrate and get your brain working on these problems. Not easy I know. Don't get pushed into something you don't want...

Nigel: To be honest I see a car just as a necessary waste of money, so that's why I want to go for a used one, to minimize the loss. As to property it's a tricky one, because technically any house will increase its value, what really matters is if you can re-sell it later or not. So I'd like a place outside the city, but at the same time I am wondering if I'd ever be able to resell if I need to move to a different place... Maybe I am stressing too much before actually having seeing anything...
