Sorry! I meant leaving my job! Really didnt see the obvious reinterpretation of my phrasing. Sorry, I am afraid you are stuck with me around for a while yet!
No just the 'evil twins' at work have made me have a rethink about whether I want to share space with them anymore.
Have done my deep thinking and decided that if an interesting position comes up in Europe then I will apply. Depending on salary etc.
Otherwise head down and I will stay for the year and reevaluate in a few months time again.
All job stuff.
Thank you so much and sorry for causing a worry xxx

Thanks Terry,
Just a bit of a wobble. A dark night so didnt want to read what i wrote and deleted it.
Tough few days compounded by nasty bosses and work stuff. Feeling better today so time for a bit of thinking about what I am doing here and if it is worth staying...or worth leaving.
Thanks x

ah john. its appartment 113 and you always welcome here my friend.
its good to hear that my musings resonate with you and others.
I am having a very turbulent weekend...Epic dreams and big lows, I think that a seismic shift is happening and its all to do with acceptance and moving on. Feels a bit like some epic dungeons and dragons thing as I am going through the ups and downs of it all...but I have faith that this will pass. That I will emerge and that learning will have taken place...
In the meantime, I went to bed at 8:30pm and an deeply grateful to have a day off tomorrow...
Thanks John xxx (ps I know it wasn't, but am counting that as a pass from a suitor...looking for the potential positives my piping pal! lol)

Thanks so much for sharing the link. I love TedEx and watch lots of the inspirational ones as they bring joy into my grief! This speaker is so spot on; it is comforting to be reminded that there is joy in grief.
Thanks,
Sonya

I am so sorry about the loss of Judy's Mom.
You guys have had so much to deal with. No wonder you are feeling a little bouncy at the moment!
Walking is wonderful, it helps me so much to get out and about. I recently decided to sign up for a big 72km hike in Feb. Havent registered yet as its too early but having made the committment has given me a bit more purpose and drive and I like the structure of having to do the training walks...I wondered if you might find it useful to sign up for something like that too? Are there any intersting ones coming up in your area? Just a thought...
We are all thinking of you,
take good care,
Sonya

I am so very sorry for the loss of your precious Pam.
I understand what it is like to love someone who is an addict, and though of course our situations are not the same, I do have very similar experiences I am sure.
Grief is so bloody hard and it is very early days for you.
Know that you are welcome here. Write and talk as much as you need to. Please dont worry about bringing anyone down! This forum has helped me so very much on this journey. I am still a work in progress but I am getting there, and I know that you will too. Just take your time and be gentle on yourself.
Take good care,
Sonya

I will be thinking of you on the 3rd.
I know what you mean about it feeling so hard. This will be the second Christmas and New Year without Tony. I am already upset & dreading New Years Eve as it was his birthday, and its still a month away.
Sending you big hugs and lots of empathy,
take good care,

Thank you so much for all your lovely responses.
This post was really just about me sharing my musings....just to be clear there are no lines of suitors knocking at my door!
But I do believe in the general message that you all posted: That when the time is right, and the suitor is suitable, I will be open to love once again.
Thanks guys. It makes me smile to type this.
Wishing you blessings,
take good care,
