hello to you all

my name is louise ~ i use to be known on here as pysart ~ but i had major problems logging on so have had to create a new account!

I know it has been a long time since I was last here. So what has happend?? I now have 2 grandchildren, my youngest son and his girlfriend have a little girl ~ 20months old now! They were living with us for over a year but now have their own place ~ we wont go into that at this moment :!:

I have just completed my fD ~ am really pleased that I have finally done it ~ took me 3 years :!: In september I am starting on my degree :roll: :!: so I may disappear again for a while.

the sad thing that has happened is my mother died in march ~ very sudden and it has changed my priorities as my dad is now on his own :(

anyway thats it for now ~ hope to catch up with friends from the past on here :)

take care my lovelies on here and tread carefully where ever you go :!:

louise xx

    Hello! It's lovely to hear from you again psyart/Louise/fatfingers (loving the new name!) and I hope you are able to stick around this time thanks to your new account.

    You've been having a mixed time of things, yes? I am so sorry about your mum, I hope your dad is doing as well as he can. Congratulations on the grandchildren, I remember that family were living with you but I hope that they are enjoying having their own place. Well done on finishing your course and I wish you the best of luck with your degree. Although your dad is now a priority don't forget that you are a priority too, OK? Take care. DD

    hello again. Lovely to see you again, psyart - sorry, fatfingers - but I'm sorry about all the stuff that's been happening to you. I hope you'll manage to stick around.

    hI EVERYONE

    THANKS FOR THE WELCOME BACK :!: :!:

    It has been a peculiar last few years ~ lots of things have happened ~ some good and some really c@@p :( People say that everytime you go through a bad patch then you must come out the other side a stronger person :!: :!: Well I am finding that harder to believe in everytime as it gets tougher each time :( :!:
    I have had my family up today for tea as my daughter is home from London, and its so lovely to have them here. Especially when the grandkids look at me and smile ~ but its also lovely to see them go :!: :!: They all make so much noise :!: :!: Had my dad up for tea with us as well, i try to see him at least twice a week now and I know he loves seeing all the kids :)

    I had a really bad year last year ~ I ended up ringing the local mental health team as I was in a big dark hole and couldn't find the ladder out, no matter what I tried to do :!: The lady I saw was really good and helped me come up into the sunshine :!: :) So I hope now that things will settle down, just a bit for a while :?: :!:

    Anyway good people ~ my bed is calling so will be back soon :!: :!:

    hugs to all who need or wish for them :!: Louise xx

    Hey Louise, I'm sure coming back on here will help you if you feel low again, I know everyone on here has helped me a few times when I felt low and near rock bottom and we help each other if someone on here felt the same. That's what is great about AC, now your back I'm sure you'll feel the love!
