Dolly rocks on........

Hey my lovely DFW's,

I'll be back here as a regular poster soon enough I promise, I'm gonna need you all to help me through this rather rubbish time in my life :(

Wee update is that the ex husband (first time I've said that) has a new flat, he came to pick some stuff up yesterday when I was out but might be coming for the rest of it tonight.

17 years together, 7 years married and at 34 years old that is a significant amount of time to have a person in your life then all of a sudden they are just gone.

I'm still struggling emotionally right now and have made the decision to move back with my Mum, this will work out great as we get on so well anyway.

No point both us us living alone 5 minutes from each other, we're gonna keep each other company and split the bills so we are both a bit better off financially :money:

Will be back soon with some new goals.

Dxxx

  • Took yesterday and today off work, I could hardly open my eyes when it was time to get up in the morning so I've just spent the time chilling out.

    Think everything over the last month was just catching up on me.

    This morning I am watching the last 4 episodes of Critical season 1, it is really good. Wasn't too sure at first but stuck with it.

    This afternoon I am going to pick up my Sister who will come and help me pack up the rest of my stuff at the flat.

    Tomorrow I have someone coming to take my sofa and a unit away as sold them to someone I know.

    Saturday and Sunday I will try to get some of my stuff organised at my Mums.

    Monday my carpet and Sky will be getting fitted then the rest of my stuff will be moved to my Mums, have a removal company picking it up cos the chest of drawers and other stuff won't fit in my wee polo.

    It's gonna be a busy weekend but once it is over it will be time to get on with this new chapter of my life.

    Will meet up with the ex to get the keys next week, he will be getting the rest of his stuff out of the flat later on today.

    Still trying to sell some furniture, if it's not gone by next weekend I will get the British Heart Foundation to come get it and they can sell it in their shops.
