    Well maybe you need to make some changes too? I feel hope is nothing without a bit of positive action to give it a helping hand.

    Left college, went back to college, did a year's uni, left uni, changed jobs :confused: Am lost on what else to change

    I have had a very strange 2008, very painful emotionally but I feel that I am finally out at the other side. Changes have been made but for the better even though they were scary and difficult.

    I know this wont make any sense to you all but I am finally finding a happiness that has previously eluded me for many reasons, not all my fault.

    For the first time in my life (I am 36) I actually feel at peace with myself.

    ........................enough of that drivel, bring on the naked Santas:D


    that's a very emotive speech honey... and who'd have thought a mozza ticket would change your life!!!




    Nah seriously, i'm glad you're at one with yourself babes, you deserve it..!

    I'm still up TDQO, i'm going to watch a spendaholics, always makes me feel better!

    I think the therapist, "lets talk about your childhood" bits are hilarious! not that debt and childhood experiences are unrelated, but it's the bloke benjamin that makes me laugh!

    sackcloth is hessian... sandbag material! I've got a few banging around in my bergen from my military training. You can pick them up cheap or free from building sites... :rotfl:

    A leather jerkin... ask your local, neighbourhood friendly re-enactment society...

    If all else fails just paint yourself black and put a broken lightbulb on your head... go for the quirky interpretation!
