    Hi
    Thank you all for your concern. Life is a little grim with me at the moment and I can't really see a way through it all.
    I have identified the problem though which is a start.

    Maz, I hope it all works out for you. Talk to Erin as only a mother can do.
    Toto - you are having a rubbish time and I so admire you.
    Luc - keep smiling and enjoy Nathan.
    Buffy - keep fighting that stupid man.
    Beanie - hope we get to fall over together again one day.
    Sally - dig me a hole please. I have a choice of people to put in it.
    Sammy - thanks
    Everybody else - thanks for your support. You are a great bunch.

    Bookie you can't see your way through right now because you're right in the thick of it.
    The fog will clear, just keep plodding.

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    bookie - life does get very heavy at times - I know , I've been there. Identifying the problem is a great start - often even working the problem out is stressful to start with.

    don't ever feel you can't talk to us. xx

    Thanks.
    I am just so upset. I have my 78 year old parents worried to death and trying to raise money to help me. I have my DD1 who should be enjoying her baby trying to help. I have DD2 thinking she needs to give up her independence and move in with me to help me. It's not fair on any of them.
    If I sell the house the equity will cover the business debts and mortgage. Nothing left for me though.
    Therefore it is me who is the problem!
    (don't worry - I won't!).
