Very nice memory @avant-garde
The only thing I can do today is lend my youngest son money as he navigates being unemployed. He got a job ---- I hope he keeps it.
He e hasn't been paid yet but Im getting a lot of joy giving him money without the trauma my mother or step father used to give me. .....

Hi,
I've been lurking in the forums, posting here and there and thought that maybe I'd jump over here and say hi.
I'm 30+10 years old (40, but we won't go there). I am a teacher, and I'm currently studying a Cert in Child and Adolescent Mental Health. I've completed one unit and I struggled in ways that I can't remember ever struggling with my studies. I live by myself - no children, but I have a neice that I look after a couple of times a week and a dog called, Luna who I am very attached to and she is a bit of a velcro dog too.
I'm not very social. While I love spending time with my close friends and family, I tend to have trouble making friends.
I like to read and I listen to podcasts and audio books. I have three books on the go at the moment - A Court of Thorns and Roses (dramatic audio), Beyond Anxiety (Dr Martha Beck) and the Spellshop. I LOVE to write and write a weekly blog post on what I've learnt or on my experiences throughout the week. I love photography, but don't really do it a lot and I love to draw, but also don't really do it alot. I tend to only draw when my students ask me for a picture. I love technology, crystals and fidgets and buying new shoes! I love going to the movies! It's one of my happy places.
Oh...I play lawn bowls. I haven't for a couple of years now, but I'm hoping to get back into
it. I have been a state rep and a region rep and would love to be again. But it will take some time to work away the kinks of a few years away from the sport.
