    I have spent time looking through your previous thread this evening.
    I have enjoyed reading your journey.
    You sound so much happier and motivated now than you was in London.
    I wish you all the best for the future .

    Thanks very much , for reading a very long thread.
    Thanks also for the kind words :)
    I must admit, I'm much happier so far.
    Trying not to think,of when the honeymoon period ends, and I have to,look for some sort of employment .
    I don't think I'll,be fit to work this year , so I'm treating it like some sort of gap year as the students say :)

    Thanks everyone .
    The bathroom looks incredible , compared to before.
    I'm waiting for the full bill for that . James will be back on Monday to do kitchen .
    It look like it will be very near the wire , as to the carpet being layed etc.
    Mr. Carpet should be here midweek to discuss.
    Things seem to be speeding up. Approx 3 weeks to go for everything to be in place.

    Very very poorly / hungover . Beer last night and a short. Too many!
    I normally have 3, or 4 at the very max these days.
    It was more than that. Let's just say, I,lost a lot of weight this morning

    Dating ..mmm.. fat useless honeymonster wants someone for ballooning and saving money. Must not eat garlic. Maybe.
    The gyms I used to go to didn't open up social doors, with your headphones on avoiding dodgy loud 'music':)

    Ballooning? :rotfl: and no garlic? :rotfl:
    PS ignore the nasty jealous poster from the other day.I couldn't believe what I was reading :eek::mad:

    Hi candy:)
    That post the other day , was the only one disliked by myself and the other good folk here. They've gone now. I've forgotten it now anyway.
    1 dodgy niggly post in such a long thread isn't bad tho :)

    Drink lots of water!

    Summer's coming, so going for gentle walks will do you the world of good. And you're in a much nicer place to do that now that you're down in Poole. Less air pollution too.

    Husband and I are heading down your way in June. We stay in Swanage, in a flat on the cliffs overlooking the beach. It's lovely and we can't wait!

    Yes, you have read my mind about the walks etc.

    Less beer and cider and fish and chips AC and more healthy food and water. That will help your health with some gentle walking to start with then step it up with the gym. ;)

    True, but I was socialising . I don't drink all the time .
    Only a couple of times a month . Just need to slow down and stick to 3. Trouble is, I get too comfy with good company :)

    Just been catching up after a week and you really have been moving ahead. Agree with the others - ignore the muppet from a few days ago. Just some saddo trying to make themselves feel good.

    I know it seems we are ganging up but I hope you can cut back on spending. Once you are in the flat would you look at agency work for the summer? Even the odd day a week could cover some of your weekly bills and you will be out and about meeting people. - maybe another honey monster :-)

    Hi karonher:)
    Nobody's ganging up,on me :) You're all basically telling me to be careful. In one way, it looks like i'm ploughing ahead .
    Organised ?:)
    In another way , i'm taking my new life in stages.
    I gave myself 6 months to have everything done .
    My condition says otherwise . I haven't properly settled yet.
    There are days when i feel like it's the day after going on a long expidition. Totally drained and lehargic.
    My specialist has put things back 6 months. This means prednisolone dosage cannot be changed until november at the earliest .
    Not impressed, but I have to be a patient patient

    So, as soon as. I move into my new home , it's the gym.
    After that ?..
