    think the map reading is a sensible idea as we don't want you getting lost.

    good the DH is starting to see that you are serious as only he can change his ways for himself..stick by your guns so that you get the life you want whether that be with him or not.

    Well done on another payment off the card

    Don't bite the hills lol! I'm sure you'll get the hang of it. I can allegedly read maps but still get a bit confused by the scale sometimes.

    so i finally just got a hold of a counsellor connected to my work ... i get 6 sessions for free ... at first she was well you will need to be on a waiting list etc ... then i told her what i was needing support with and she changed almost instantly ... she has taken all my details and she will phone me on monday with an appt ... she was very interested to know that i wasnt phoning to deal with hubby but to deal with my relationship to his alcohol use/abuse ... she said she was delighted to hear that i wanted to deal with me .. to which i replied (kinda confused) who else could i deal with?... anyway next week am looking forward to it ... time to help get my head sorted
  • Hi El,
