Thank you Killerpeaty, INOD, Stepuptothepl8, GP, Parsniphead and Shelbi. I'm really touched at your faith. Keep thinking I'm crazy leaving my new nice but slightly dull job. But this could lead to something much better so feel I have to try.
And it feels right to try

Well, the outcome of the risk going wrong would be that you get a different job. Which you already proved that you can do!
Besides, we can start our new roles together and that makes me feel better 0 -

Hello beautiful!!!
So lovely to come back and see so many posts on your thread. I have missed you ever so!!
Such amazing news ref getting MrSuperDave house trained and spending the right things from the right places. Even better there is a tax pot! And AMZING news about the new job!! Yes, a risk worth taking definitely. More money is always great and a challenge and learning new skills fits in beautifully with what you are achieving in all other areas of your life. You are, have always been, and will be completely fantastic at anything you put your mind to, as long as you believe in yourself.
Seems your confidence is skyrocketing despite all the pressures you are under and it is great to see hun. You deserve some happiness and to be able to shape your own future.
Lots of love xxxTotal Debt: -£5,029.17/£11,220

Yayy KP, a partner in crime for me. Lol. Slightly scared, but apparently that's good as am also excited. Excited for you too, you will be brilliant. Onwards and upwards.
GP sorry to hear you've caught my insomnia-itus. It can ce nice to be awake early in the sunnier days, but I'm not sure at the mo.
Lovely Lilty, you always say the sweetest things. Have missed you too, but am following you and little Jellies adventures on your thread. Keep well you two. XOSWL (start 13st) by 30Jun20 6/10
