    Thought I would pop in and say hello, looks like everything is moving along for you Sally, did you manage to get Bea into a School yet?

    I am also needing a huge kick up the bum re DFW, my debt has crept up again, own stupid fault but seriously need to get back on the wagon.
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.

    I often think - a lot - about the past and what could have been with my ex. I know all the factors that led us to split and whilst I think some could have been fixed with knowledge (ie financial stuff - MSE wasn't around then) and some things could be different now with hindsight (grass is not greener on the other side!) there are still elements which could never be fixed because it would take a whole change of personality and 'head stuff'. I couldn't go back to 'living' for 2 people, sorting everything, being responsible for everything, taking the carp when it happened for everything, however nice a guy he is. It's sad but it's about being realistic and knowing that moving forward really is the best thing. xx

    What a thoughtful post, makes pefect sense - I think we can all have touch of the rose tinted looking back from time to time
