This time last week i was facing redundancy - today i'm not at risk.
This time last week my OH was working the last month of her notice with no job to go to - this week she's found a job.
I lost £30 in a cash machine - but someones happier for it.

Hi

I'm really glad you're feeling better.

I feel exactly the same.

Before New Year I had a crappy job, was in a crappy relationship and felt like I had no friends.

Now i'm with the love of my life (the one that got away lol) in a secure job which is awesome and I've realised I might not have as many friends as I thought, but the ones I have are worth a 100 normal friends.

Have a wonderful holiday.

The light at the end of the tunnel is always nice to see. I love it when people recognise that things are good, or getting better. I'm glad you started this very positive thread!

I've had a rotten chest infection for about 3 weeks now, and am on my second lot of antibiotics so I'm feeling really fed up healthwise. But I know I'm being well looked after (thanks to my OH), have a holiday to look forward to, and no money or family worries. A lot to be grateful for.

Over the last few weeks if it could go wrong it has. I lost quite an amount of money when my purse was lifted from my bag, two men attacked me for a taxi, my allotment was trashed by the council, I got german measles (don't ask how), my washing machine is broken, I fell over and hurt my knee and I'm temporarily skint.

Do you know what? I've never been happier because I feel free and I have the best friends in the world

Well done glad things are looking better for ya, there is nothing worse then being at rock bottom.

I was gthe same last yr ..

1) had the neighbour from hell (kept kids up all night with music and rowing)
2) My nan had 3 strokes she lives in kent and i was unable to go see her
3) My cmt got worse ( a rare genetic condition which waists my muscles and peripihal nerves)
4) fell out with 5 people who door matted me endless
5) had depresstion

Now im much better moved home been here 3 week . Only have 1 neighbour there in there 60's. Its peaceful, and i have plenty of new friends who do respect me. A few holidays to look forward to. And got tough because i wont be anyones door mat again. lol. And i aint on anti depressants now either so im doing much better then last year.
