We've had crap times, but there are positives. Daughter's loving High School and doing well. Weather's great etc.
But...I miss my family and mates back in England and the job situation stank.to stay here, although I'm tempted to buy a shack in Ecuador and live off the house equity.

So not quite living the dream, but it's early days yet. OH definitely wants
to stay but I am keen to buy a shack in Ecuador and live off the house equity. Daughter can be sold on ebay with the electrical goods.
Resumes are good. Think I might add a conviction for worrying sheep into my OHs and perhaps I could suddenly get a degree in light dusting? I keep remembering that you're supposed to make yourself stand out after all.

What's new with Sans and Lorna? I'm so out of touch.
Just saw the multi tasking post. Hell, yes, that can go on too. ;)

Not telling until your pi.....ssed .................would only depress you if i started...........but check my signature:p

Yes. I forgot that. I'll sign up at the local college for polishing too.

what's new ......... had a fight with Oh a week ago ........ had a few drinks and posted a few threads in the Aussie bar. It was only a bit of steam and a little rant on my part but did get lots of unexpected and nice people telling me to sort things out and TALK about things and COMMUNICATE before things got out of hand.
I felt compelled to tell them all that it was only a bit of a rant and not the beginnings of some massive break-up. I was just pissed off ....

what else is new ......... kids back at school today after 3 long months off ........... only the first day and I already HATE the alarm clock !!!!!!!!!!

I'll give you a hand.

You're right about men. Never one around when you need one.

Lorna sounds like she's had fun and games too. Mine's a saint but determined to stay here come hell or high water. I'm not so sure.

Renting's a pain in the arse. We rented for 18 months before we moved and I loathed it. Drank far too much.

Resumes are growing. Do you think they'll believe I'm an ex Para?
