KTjazz - the great life overhaul
Comments

Hi everyone,
I'm just checking in to let you know that I'm ok. Here is what happened...
On monday of last week my mum left my dad.
So the 2009 disaster log so far,
Jan - The project from hell at work
Feb - almost losing OH & redundancies announced at work
Mar - Dad's car broken into (while in my possession) & didn't get interviews for any of the sign language posts I have applied for.
Apr - My parents split up.
There have been many little things too. In short 2009 SUCKS!
Here are the good things that have happened.
I didn't lose OH. I got accepted onto the level4 portfolio class. I'm sure there must be more but I can't think of anything right now.
I'm not going to mope anymore. Enough is enough.
I hope everyone is doing ok.

Hey KT
Just to say you're so strong, and I really admire how you have stayed positive in the face of such a crappy year. Really hoping it gets better from here on for you.
If I were in your shoes I'd be back on the coffee, just in case

That's superb!
I think I'm going to go and have a coffee this afternoon! I'm scared I won't like it anymore. I'm going to nip back through my diary and find the exact date I quit and see if my theory proves true.
Thanks everyone. I think I'm going to smile again today.:hello: - Proud to be dealing with my debts!:j DFW nerd No. 1011!
