Default jumping through hoops and ticking time

does anyone esle feel like this, i feel like my life has been on hold forever, my fate has been in the hands of other people for so long now, first getting the visa (with hindsight the easy bit) now it is with people who may buy the house, i cant make plans (all the good jobs have now come onto the market now i am leaving) and there is this morose atmosphere with family, its like waiting for a bereavement in some ways

as this thread is going you can see i am in probably in a blue mood and need cheering up, sick of people saying "are you off soon" the sooner the better, have had 1 viewer round so far (only been on the market a week but sods law other houses have gone up for sale in the same road but cheeper:scared: :scared: )

need inspiration and a bit of moral support

Arlene,

Some words of wisdom:

There were 2 lions walking down the high street and one said to the other "not many people about are there ?"

No moral.

Just wanted to give Arlene a change of thought pattern to help get over the blues.

But on second thoughts would you walk down the high street if there were 2 lions there ?

Hit a bump in the road, eh?

Hang on in there - you have come this far and overcome bumps before and this is no different.

Pour youself a glass of wine, open a box of choccies and put a good film on and forget about it for a bit, as much as you can.

Something with a hunky guy in it always helps me!
