Go for it girl- good luck, we all need to find happiness anywhere we can. My 36 year old sister is marrying a 23 year old in August, and they are blissfully happy.
See if it leads anywhere, sending you positive vibes xxx:j0 -
Well we're back from the jubilee party, Mr S was there and we had a bit of a chat but there were loads of people there and he was working in the kitchen most of the time. He did manage to touch my arm again though
:j
There wasn't much dancing either this time, so no chance there either :cool: Was a good afternoon though

Morning all, an indoor day here today. I have given ds a project to do, he is finding out what he can about planets and space and doing a powerpoint to show me later
He's loving it so far and it has meant that I have been able to clean and declutter all my kitchen cupboards and drawers
I have a very full binbag waiting to go out and clean and sparkly cupboards
I still have the fridge and the saucepan cupboard to clean and sort
but I do feel like I've made good progress so far. I also emptied and sorted a cupboard in my bedroom this morning too. I like days like this

Been out for a walk in the forest with ds and Mums dog, and ended up bathing the dog afterwards as he was filthy
Had an interesting chat with Mum afterwards, we were chatting about yesterday and ended up talking about the staff at the home and she was saying that Mr S is 26 and was adopted apparently. My Mum finds out all sorts lol ... She doesn't know that I'm interested, she has been trying to marry me off ever since the crim left, so I don't tell her anything about if I'm interested in anyone. 26 is young isn't it
