Another Year!

[Michelle]

Well nearly the end of another year :) , whats the most important things that have happened to you this year?

I discovered that there are some people you just don't need in your life and that there are others you just cant do without! I realised I'm stronger than I thought I was and the best thing is that I made some great friends this year :10:

Also discovered that you can't take some people at face value, the type of people who only look out for themselves and would do or say anything to get what they want, regardless of who gets hurt :030: A lesson well learnt might I add!

So from basically a shitty start to 2007 it hasnt ended up all that bad and hopefully next year will get even better :D

Gawd... I can safely say this' been one of the maddest years i've ever had. :033:

Since January i've become homeless, become a mummy, become a single mummy, and become un-homeless! :045:

I've gotten lots of new wonderful online friends :13: , and caught up with some friends i haven't seen for a long while.

Here's to a better one next year! :044:

well broken up with Ex so now I am a single mum again, not something I ever thought would happen again.
However after 11 years or umming and ahhing I did get my wocker and she has been a gem.
My son took his first big step on the road to being a grown up and started school.
I other than having found a group of women (yes you know who you all are) (oh and Si) who have been more help than I ever would of expected and listened to my moans and groans and come up with helpful advice and support, have had a pretty crappy year and I will be glad to see the back of it. I just hope that 2008 is a better one for all my friends old and new.
And I do plan on doing a tour next year so i will be visiting all of you.....you have been warned.

I will be glad to see the back of this year. It has ended quite rotten for me and mine. However, I have learnt that I am really quite strong, that family are always there to lean on and that some people should have been drowned at birth. Still, what doesn't kill you makes you stronger! I won't say I hope 2008 will be better because when I say that, it always turns out worse. I wish everybody the best Christmas and peace and happiness, along with anything else they need. :12:

I got my baby boy this year, so thats been a fairly amazing thing for me. I learned that I couldn't love anyone more than I love him. I've also found some great new friends this year. I've had my series of crap stuff happen too, but feel like im on track for a good year next year.

I had some pretty big personal life issues this year which I didn't handle very well at the time but having woken up in the last few weeks and given myself a giant kick up the arse I am trying very hard to fix them and hoping I'm not too late. So basically I'm hoping to start 2008 with the same person I started 2007 with... whether or not it actually happens is yet to be seen but I'm trying.

I think I'll be glad to see the back of this particular year though, it's been a bit of stinker overall between man issues and family illnesses and changing jobs and work being shit and certain 'friends' turning out to be delusional psycho bitches from hell and realising that I'm now closer to 30 than 20... :cry:

This years been none too bad for me. Started off well with the arrival of Sally, finally to her forever home on the 5th of January completing our loving 2 dogs and 2 slaves household.

I contacted some lost lost family which had its good and bad points but mainly good.

I'm wary of finishing on a low as I feel a bit swamped at the moment so need to get my head down for a week or two and get organised so I can relax and enjoy Christmas.

But life is good and I have a loving man and my two loving cockers to put a smile on my face no matter what happens so Im one lucky girl :10: :10:

Well I got a terrific bonus in Feb which paid to get our new (very small) kitchen installed and a few other little bits. Adéle had yet more surgery but finally she has the hearing aid she has needed (on Monday)and is seeing a difference at school (she's now in year 11 but hey, two terms of better hearing is two terms). My youngest son joined the Army , passed out and has now joined his Battalion in Celle in Germany.Eldest son has fallen in love - aww. My back problems have worsened but I finally plucked up the courage to see the Dr about something else, had surgery and am now recovering. OH had a suspected heart attack. My sons are buying a house together. I refrained from getting dog no 3. I guess it's been a bit of a roller coaster of a year really. When something good happens generally more bad things happen!

Ours started off shitty, quite literaly immediately, with an incident last new year's eve/morning, with our next door neighbours.
Year just just progressively worse, added on top of a few really shitty recent years. But now we're here, happy, in our new home, we wouldnt be here if the crap hadn't happened, strange really. :030:
