    Another sad, lonely, miserable one joining in if you don't mind.

    I can't stop crying and my daughter is away this weekend, so I am all on my own feeling very sorry for myself!

    Never mind Tenmah, :grouphug:

    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.

    I guess all my RL friends are busy with there lives, I dont see a soul when I am off work except the kids:o At work I am now a team of 1 so I feel a bit desolate working on my own.....

    I guess I have just been thinking that I dont have many friends at all.
    I guess we are all in the same boat then:o:rotfl:
