He is a very inspiring man - and he lived what he said.
Maru, look after yourself and will be thinking of you - don't forget we all will be there, with you (well I am not wearing purple but...) in spirit.

I am okish. Just pretty much ready to explode so good thing that BF is not here or he might get it (again). Poor fellow - I do feel sorry for him. The one man that ever has truly loved me and I treat him so badly.
Anyway - spoke to solicitor, good advice. Will get in action hopefully on Sunday as hopefully BF is distracting DD. That time should go to studying and I am getting to panic a bit. I wasn't able to concentrate on studying today at all at work. I was so worried about being told off again. The telling off about my working times was quite enough.
But something positive has come out of this. I have come up with a business idea. How viable that is, how to create the technical infrastructure to make it possible and how to find the clients - I don't know. But I am sure it all falls into place.
Tonight I am going to finish Ollie, perhaps start the little bird for BF's mum and go to bed early. Oh and perhaps read my Kindle. I bought a book while I was at work and when I got home it was on my Kindle. I love technology. The book is called: Why we get fat and what to do about it.
But now I am hungry - ready meals tonight. Macaroni cheese for DD and Pad Thai for me"Everything will be alright in the end. If it's not alright, it's not the end."

I was supposed to study today but I have horrible migraine. What I did manage to do is to write up the document I will need for the court. I will still need to make couple of phone calls on Tuesday morning and if they go well I will have more ammunition with me. So I am feeling quietly confident about that.
What I am not feeling confident about is the exam. Need to up the gear with that as soon as my head feels better.
I am going to go for the final attempt on losing weight. But I am not even thinking of starting it until in mid June. I don't want to talk about it too much now just to say that I am hoping to be able to keep a food diary and if it all goes well I can then tell here what I have been up to. Don't worry I am not going to a) spend a lot of money b) make myself ill. It also might help with the meal planning and the "what quick I can do for tea" problem.
Anyway - must go and get some rest.
ETA: To my 3 and a bit year challenge I will add some online IT courses. Need to have a look at some point which ones I need to do. This is all to get the knowledge and confidence to start doing my own thing."Everything will be alright in the end. If it's not alright, it's not the end."

We are heading to a boat show today. It is pouring rain. I was having my cup of coffee this morning in the conservatory enjoying it all. I hope we won't get too soaked thou.
I hope FW is ok. Toodling off to her thread to have a look while I finish my breakfast."Everything will be alright in the end. If it's not alright, it's not the end."

Court hearing is postponed due to the wellfare report not being finalised. Ex didn't turn up as he was more on the ball about that and I had a good chat with the panel and the legal aid. All in all good day except I got terribly upset when the security confiscated my cross stitch because the needle was too dangerous.
I was thinking of going back to work but decided against it. The busy time starts tomorrow and I am as prepared as I can possibly be. And I finished everything I had on the time table for today before leaving for the court.
So I am going to chill, put some washing on and even get some studying done before picking DD up from the holiday club and taking her to her swimming lesson."Everything will be alright in the end. If it's not alright, it's not the end."

Yep it will be in the beginning of July so plenty of time to prepare. I already have plan of action. And of course next time I will have a representative with me."Everything will be alright in the end. If it's not alright, it's not the end."
