Apologies,as,I,have,no,space,bar,hence,the,commas.
I,have,decided,to,start,a,new,diary,the,reasoning,being,the,last,one,was
new,life,new,start,mainly,to,the,fact,that,the,neighbours,from,hell,had,been,evicted.
In,many,ways,the,year,or,so,has,been,up,and,down,
the,positivies-
the,neighbours,got,evicted
I,went,on.The,Orient,Express.
I,successfully,appealed,my,studying,ban,with,OU,and,am,now,studying.
I,took,dd,to,Tunisia,in,April,for,her,1st,holiday,abroad
Started,getting,a,social,life,not,a,lot,but,makeing,an,effort
Got,a,loan,and,was,able,to,wipe,out,credit,and,store,cards

Took,a,step,back,and,realised,that,my,crutches,are,part,of,me,they,have,been,for,7yrs,and,I,have,to,accept,the,fact,that,I,am,disabled,and,maybe,cant,do,everything,but,that,doesn't,stop,me,trying.
I,have,a,beautiful,daughter,who,is,my,life,and,I'm,so,lucky,she,has,a,heart,of,gold.

Loving that your list of positives is massively longer than negatives!! :j I am also a professional complainer.
But only when it's warranted, and I also make a point of praising good service.

She's a sweetie that little girl in the next caravan..bless her..are her and your DD playing together?
You're welcome..no need to thank us we had a lovely time with you and DD.I need to look at my finances as well..lol
Hope you enjoy the rest of your holidays.0 -
just a quickie.....b4 bed. Keyboard not fixed -but as its Vista you can have an onscreen keyboard -pain but does give me a space bar.
Think the word is help.....
DD doesn't want to go home, she now wants to live in Blackpool.....she was suppose to help with the packing up -got 2 things out of the wardrobe then decided she had hurt her arm - really thinks if were not packed we can stay. I'm absolutely dreading packing the car....
Had a really gd fortnight, and with it being just the two of us, brings us closer together. Had our last wonder out today, which mainly consisted of Peacocks (sale rack), then Primark -originally to return some clothes, but came out with school trs and hair accessories - thats flavour of the month at the mo - shes brought 20 thin type Alice bands.
Get a free ngt out Sunday doing a mystery shop - cinema visit - with the timing its either Harry Potter or Bruno, so me thinks Bruno it is.
(Note - avoids that magic word money
debts
