    Thank You so much everyone for your Support....

    Went to Mum's....cried a bit....but I talked it through with Mum and basically I know what happened....and so does he....And he has not gotten off scot free....he will still have a criminal record which will be difficult for him in the future....

    I just have to start re-building my Life now....I have some Goals for the future (not just money-saving ones), and here is what I have come up with so far:

    1) Join some sort of self-defence Class
    2) Lose some weight
    3) Join a Council Gym
    4) Talk to the Police about ways to feel safer (ie: Mace if that's legal, Pepper Spray if it's legal or other ways to feel safe)
    5) Go back to Therapy and work through the difficult feelings

    I want to Work on ME this Year...I am my own "Special Project" this Year....I'm going to Work on ME and get MY Life back on track....I'm going to get back what HE has stolen....Dammit I want my Life back....and I'm going to get it back....This will NOT defeat me!!!!

    Soooooo, one more night of wallowing is in order I think....Hopefully my Cold will feel better by tomorrow and I can do some serious Work over the Weekend to get what I need to get for next Week....

    Also, there is SOME good news....I will get my Netbook (that he stole) back hopefully at some point in the next Week which means that Mum can have the Laptop back that I've borrowed from her for the past 6 months....and I can have my lovely, cute, adorable, favourite Netbook back that I love and adore....It DOES need a re-condition but that shouldn't cost too much...and it needs a new Power Source Cable as the Police didn't know that he had taken that when he stole the Netbook from me...so they only recovered the Netbook itself...but all that can be sorted out....

    So, starting from tomorrow I'm going to get some serious Work done....I WILL survive this....I AM a survivor and I'll be damned if I'm going to let him Win....I will Win...NOT him....

    Thank You again for all your help....I'll try to be okay now but your Support is always appreciated and please do continue to Post on my Diary....Hopefully happier times are ahead....

    I am also in the losing weight stage :) been spurred on just recently and now i'm going to try extra hard!

    Maybe we could keep each other updated and spurred on. Confess if we do something bad, that kind of thing. Do you think that would help.

    I'm so proud with how you are planing your life. Rather than taking the easy way out and not trying and blaming everything on what happened to you, you are planning your life, forgetting what happened and moving on. You are an inspiration miss helen :D
