Do you feel like ‘friends’ are sabotaging your relationship?

They probably are. I get this sneaky suspicion that some ‘friends’ don’t want to see my husband and I back together. They are actively telling tales on him, things I already know. The thing is I know that if we are over for good, those friends won’t stay in contact with me. They are like

Calming

I was just watching Tess Daly do an interview about her new book. During the interview she discussed breathing techniques, breathing in for 4 and out for 6 etc. this helps calm her when she is trying to sleep and can’t switch off. Now even that doesn’t work for me. But I use the one

WLS Regrets

Don’t get me wrong, I’m happy with my results but, and this is the big one, I still have regrets, I didn’t know I’d have to take the stomach enzymes with everything I eat for life, due to complications this is me now having to swallow tablets as I eat with everything even snacks, I

Stop Listening To Course Advice from Parents

What advice would you give to your teenage self? I feel the biggest mistake I made as a teenager was being led in my career and courses by my parents. I wanted to join the army, I really wish I had. I also wanted to study French, Art and Art History and go to university

Painful Happy Memories

It dampens my days when happy memories come up, when I know I’m no longer part of future happy memories with that special person/s. Broken families are terrible but some just can’t be fixed. It’s not just a personality clash, it’s removing yourself from toxic and violent situations which result in you no longer being

Prayers

I find myself praying a lot recently, as a person constantly confused about faith I sure have a lot of it. I believe all religions pray essentially to the same one being. No one is right or wrong in this instance, what matters is faith in something bigger and the journey you take now. So

Faith

Share one of the best gifts you’ve ever received. When I was in my twenties, I stopped taking birth control, my partner and I were trying to get pregnant. The years went by and hospital visits came and went, I tried fertility treatment and I had investigative surgery. It all took a huge toll on

Can’t sleep

Because my mind refuses to stop singing, ‘ GET THIS PARTY STARTED’ by Pink. I’ve not even heard this song for ages, maybe it was on an advertisement or maybe this is the start of a migraine, pain medication or stress; but I guarantee by the early hours I’ll be sick of this song. I’ll
