Good post Mg.:)
I have been trying to keep up with you all, but haven't had a lot of time with DD being in hospital- still very poorly and has made the decision to postpone her Uni course this year. I am a bit gutted for her on a lot of levels really and just wish i could swap with her and i would in a heartbeat.
So i could do with lots of positive thoughts from you all.
Bob xBlackadder: Am I jumping the gun, Baldrick, or are the words 'I have a cunning plan' marching with ill-deserved confidence in the direction of this conversation?
Still lurking around with a hope of some salvation:cool:0 -

You cant help but feel the positivity can you?
It just curls round you comfortingly like a new born baby's finger.
Got me much the same way about 2 weeks ago after months of lurking lol.
Welcome.0 -
Positive thoughts coming to you and your DD.

The second was 5 football tops in a carrier bag - so even before I started on my day and choosing how to spend my fifteen minutes on finding Kits for Kids I had a success :j. No note or anything, so hopefully our mysterious benefactor will make themselves known in due course.The third - a bag of windfalls that are just screamng to be made into an apple pie (from my neighbours)I've been thinking back at how far different my life is from that day -almost a year ago when the bank froze my accounts.- My boys were always taken care of - but I didn't take care of me, I didn't believe that I deserved any happiness because somehow I had "Allowed" the bank to take my boys financial future.
- I realise now that by overcoming the crippling inertia, the feeling of being completely helpless and stuck was a huge mountain to begin to climb. I remember clearly the days when I would just stare at the ironing pile slowly growing because I couldn't be bothered to walk the eight steps to the cupboard and bring out the ironing board.
- I remember the sick feeling in the pit of my stomach going around LIDL with my list and calculator and praying that I'd done the addition right, because any slip up meant there wasn't enough money to put petrol in the car to get DS1 to school. Gifts - like Clooties eggs were a nutritional godsend some weeks:D
I now feel like the ocean liner is begging to chug towards the sun again and that one day soon I will be sprinting over the waves - only this time I won't be alone, theres a whole flotilla of ships bigger and smaller sailing with me too.
I'm not any richer - I still begin and end the week within pennies of my float amount, but I have in my heart a compelling belief that if I can help emough people get what they desire, then I too will get wha I desire. I have in my heart true abundance now - and I don't think I have ever felt that before.
And you guys challenging me to make £400K under Mr Bigs mentorship - nearly made me run and hide under a stone, because it is exactly the sum of money lost when the bank shut us down.
But a year on I am within sniffing distance of being signed off benefits and taking the plunge back into the periolous world of being self-employed in the middle of a recession.:eek:
But a year ago I never even would have been thinking about doing just that - and now I am, and now I have days when I absolutely believe I am on the right track to creating a better life for my family - and setting a better example for my boys.
So deep breath MG - jump in with both feet and believe that you can reach out to train 1000 people in the next year.
Off to blow bubbles in the garden with ds2 and calm down a little:rotfl:

Nice message, MG. Well done.
I'm not from round your part of the world, but Clooties eggs... more nutritious than chickens'?

Sorry, feeling flippant because I was 'invited' to an interview with the DWP and you know what these people can be like. Fortunately it was just a routine thing, so I have been skipping when no-one's looking.0 -

OMG You Guys - you've had me in "Purple Puddles" reading all your comments.
Honestly this morning I was just feeling all Autumnal and reflective - and thankful that the old MG seems to be on her way back.
Had a great day - sorting out the new webpage mostly. Its superwhizzy - you can book places on courses and order books and everything:j
When it goes live I will let you all know and we can all have a play.
I've taken on board the comments from some kind people who have PM'd saying that they would prefer courses to be sooner rather than later (because they want their kids to have access now for greater benefit come exam time next year - so the dates of the "World Tour" have been compressed somewhat.
But if you guys are confident we can find the kids I am very happy to play along.
I'm being serenaded by "Twinkle Twinkle" again this evening - one on violin, one on half a recorder. Its music Jim - but not as we know it:rotfl::rotfl:.
