Minor Update's Update

Since the last update which was at the start of last month, I am still working at the same Primary School, it has gone quite well so far.

I only expected to be there that week but this week is my fifth week, I think next week will be my last but this 6 weeks of work has kind of helped me mentally with a number of things.

I have also booked my theory test for next week Thursday at 9am, hopefully I dont go there and forget everything I have learnt as with all the practice tests I am doing daily I pass with a high level of marks over the threshold every single time.

I am hoping to be able to end this year on a good note, and not still be bogged down with all my mentally problems and the fact I have been sacked 3 times from the same job...

Thanks for the support everybody, you are the only guys I can speak to about this as I cant speak about this to anybody else or in person to other people.

    Thank you for your update. It is good to hear that things are going so well for you. Don't underestimate just how much of this positive turnaround in your life, is due to your strength of character and resilience. Something you should be very proud of.

    Good luck with your theory test. I hope it goes well. One bit of advice is that you try to focus on all the good changes to your life and let go of things that didn't work out. Maybe they just weren't meant to be and going through that has enabled you to reach where you are now. You haven't failed in any way, you were just meant to pursue other things. All the best to you :)
    The best day of your life is the one on which you decide your life is your own, no apologies or excuses. No one to lean on, rely on or blame. The gift is yours - it is an amazing journey - and you alone are responsible for the quality of it. This is the day your life really begins.

    Gosh, five weeks, that is good news. I hope you are finding it less physically demanding than you were at first.

    Good luck with the theory test too. Let us know how you do, won't you.

    Have you considered a longer thread keeping updates together? I think you are doing really well and others who missed your Original post would be here to listen too.

    I am hoping to pass it and not have to go back again next year, and I really wish I could let go of things but thats a story for another day
