    Am back from a glorious weekend away with the man thing who I just think is so bloody wonderful it is ridiculous. Mum doesn't. but she is trying I suppose. It is hard to come back to her being so sad and unhappy tho. I was really full of beans when I came in but she is full of boating disasters and baking failure (which did taste nice so you know, not all bad).

    I have made some BIG decisions but can't say more till Wednesday at the earliest.

    Need to go unpack and sort out piggies!

    Oh and I spent BIG. Like Julia Roberts. have many clothes!
    Nevertheless she persisted.

    hello folks :)

    well the big news is that I have quit my job.

    I have tried every which way to manage it but have decided that it is never going to happen. Not worth the stress at all.

    I don't have a new one. And I do have 7 weeks to research and write my Masters. And 5527 pounds worth of debt. Although I did get accepted for a new Credit card which is odd....

    things are serious between me and Man thing. He makes me buy clothes. I like him. ALOT.

    The other news was meant to be a balance transfer but not had a minute to myself to do it!

    Hope this is exciting enough for you all :) xx
    Nevertheless she persisted.

    Buffy, I am a long-time lurker who posted on your diary two or three years ago (I don't know whether you'll remember but I am also a teacher who sympathised with your situation). I just wanted to congratulate you on a brave but BRILLIANT decision you have made!! I am so pleased for you! You seem to have had such a rough couple of years and I hope the new man and this turning point are going to be the start of an amazing future for you! One life and all that!

    How exciting!

    Loux
