It does feel like half a lifetime ago where my mood or the day would be determined by the weather report. I am aware that I am reliving this. It brings back a lot of unpleasant memories of the childhood home and the downside of living on a top floor flat is that in exchange for not having a horrendous neighbour above you, you have to contend with the likelihood that at some point, your roof is going to leak. My problem is that I’ve been experiencing this for over a quarter of my life and my mood is a problem without a leaking roof. With a leaking roof and terminally ill relative thrown in, I’m not managing to pick myself up off the floor.
