Yeah, its been great having all that time off from work, I started mid feb and had a week off then later the full school summer hols, like 8 weeks, it’s been great and I’ll be back to work on the 17th Aug.
Back to the grind…early mornings and afternoons, the weather will start turning soon too maybe about late Sept/Oct, it’ll get dark in the Mornings too so I’ll need to be extra careful helping the kids cross, hopefully they’ll be no icy roads.
Anyway, I am hoping I’ll get on ok even with the Mild cfs/me, it still tires me out so I need to do what I can to save energy. I just need to adjust to the new routine again and see ho I go 
wish me luck x

Its extra money, I am hoping to travel more maybe go to Canada or travel along the Euro Train, I need to wait until next year now though for a long enough Holiday time off.
The UC made me go to the Job centre recently as they wanted to see my bank statements, its all legit but I am slightly over the limit so they will be reducing my allowance, It was my own fault they checked because I told them, at least I am being honest.

I wish I could go with someone but I have no-one except my neighbour but I wouldn’t go with her bc she can be a bit mean sometimes, The girl I was dating has gone silent on me after 3 dates
so it looks like its just me, myself & I lol

I don’t like being a lone but I have learnt to live with it, I like company more, I am still upset about a girl I really liked, I still haven’t gotten over the rejection of like 3 women, the latest person isn’t too bad, its better to cut it off before getting too deep because then it can get really upsetting.

Yeah, I can understand that. When you’re in a relationship, you wear your heart on your sleeve and it hurts even more when you get rejected like that because your defenses are not up

twice I tried very hard to make it work with 2 women 
1 woman really made me feel bad even though it as just a quick thing, I felt awful bc of it.
I don’t think It was my fault
on the other hand I was with Alison for about 14yrs 2002-2016

I’m sorry she was hard on you like that. Usually breakups are caused, at least in some part, by both parties.
if my love life was a mirror it would be in shards on the ground, its just unlucky & upsetting and probably would cut deep if I got too close, I’m getting too old to care about it tbf
