Baby steps to mortgage freedom for beanielou.

Beanie show the bullies they haven’t won. Hope you’re comparing yourself for the right reasons.
Beanie is kind - bullies are not
Beanie is strong - bullies are cowards if they get their fun belittling others
Beanie is resourceful - bullies have no imagination
Beanie doesn’t give up - bullies gave up being decent humans
Beanie loves her animals - often bullies are cruel to animals as well as people
Beanie has a great sense of humour - bullies humour isn’t funny (it’s usually cruel)
Just think what you’ve done when comparing yourself to others.....
You’ve brought a child up on your own- I’d struggle doing that - there are two of us, and that wasn’t easy
You’ve virtually paid your mortgage to ensure you have a roof over your head
You’re doing home improvements to keep that home safe and comfortable
You volunteer at the FB
You are a loving mum and daughter and friend
You keep on plodding on and encouraging many others as you do.
Annnd that’s what I know of you from here - and I don’t know you properly in RL.
It’s hard being ‘different’ and having to find your own way of doing things and having to cope with falls, pain and physio - you really do an amazing job 👏👏👏👏👏👏
