Hi guys

Thank you so much for all your posts. I have been away for a few days; I needed to take a holiday so I went up to Scotland with a friend. It was really good to just take a break and get a change of scene. Coming back was a little difficult - I do find that house slightly depressing now but I am seeing it as a means to an end. I need to stay there really till the end of the year before I leave for my travels. So hopefully there will be an offer some time in the summer.

One of the things on my list is to re-train in a new profession so I am about to book an introductory course in Music Therapy - something I have been considering for a while to see if I like it. It is a scary prospect as it means I will have to become a full time student again and I'm not sure how achievable it is going to be but anything is possible right? I shall see how the weekend course goes in April.

There has been no reply to my email to h. Funny, I read somewhere once in newcomers that someone commented that it is amazing how friendly and amenable the WAS becomes when they are getting their own way. I will resend it again tonight and just put a note at the top saying 'just in case you didn't receive this'.

At the weekend I will pack all his stuff and put it into boxes. I will then ask him to arrange a time when he can come and get it. If I am going to be in this house for a while longer I may as well make it mine. I am finding that I am still replaying stuff/ events in my head but I am trying to stop. I'm actually finding it is when I am stressed about other stuff that it becomes more apparent. I'm sure that with time it will pass. I am also having vivid dreams about telling people I am divorced/ separated when they ask. Maybe that will help me prepare for the real time.

(((Samina))) thank you for stopping by. I was thinking about you the other day. You should start a thread...

(((Lisa))) Lets meet up really soon. I'm not at choir tonight as I have a trustees meeting - bleugh! I have a feeling that crazy doctor woman is going to be acting like a mosquito!

(((Ms M))) You words were really helpful about the reasons not being valid. You are right our marriages were short (although with h's illness I kind of felt like a lifetime in one year) and I'm sure time will heal. I have learnt so much from this.

(((Kassie))) Thank you for your support. \:\) I'll see you in that cyber pub I'm sure!

(((Dan))) Thank you \:\) there have been some transformations along this journey.

(((W2G))) So lovely to 'see' you again. I hope you are ok!
