Thought i best start one for this week as i couldn`t see one. Whats going on? Where is everybody??
I`m on the next chapter of my life now as i handed over the keys to my house (sniff sniff, was a bit emotional after living there 16yrs & it being my 1st own home) yesterday & have now moved in with my lovely other half. We`re looking at getting a new build when there completed in July.
Whats everybody else up too??

Hi everyone,

Well i hope this week goes better than last week, husband landed in hospital with a bladder infection. He's back home now and just gone back to work, good thing too he was driving me crazy!!! awww bless him. He's better now thats the main thing.
So how is everyone?......anyone?0 -
It is awfully quite in here isn't it?!
I'm off to work in a few minutes - my first night on the new job (same place, promotion - now supervising the colleagues i used to work alongside which is going to be really interesting!) so I'm feeling pretty nervous, particularly about one colleague who is none to happy I got the job over him. Gotta put my thick skin on and just get on with it I think! I am starting to wish I'd just stayed in my old job though, I was oh so comfy!

Ooooh a weekly chat - can I come and play please

I'm finding doing a DMP quite lonely as of the few people I've confided in only one has been through something similar and understands the shame and embarrassment. Mind you I don't want to bore you all either
I've got proper work tomorrow - but haven't worked at this location for a year - so I'm very nervous.0
