3 years ago

what were you doing?

Has your life changed in small ways, huge ways, or not at all?

In 3 years you can get pregnant, have a baby, and have a toddler trying to get your attention right now. In some ways, quite a long time. In some ways, a blink of the eye.

I picked 3 years because it's coming up to when I first joined CS. That started a series of changes which could continue for years.

There was a revolutionary year before that but the 10 years before - well, I can't actually remember a single thing of interest that happened in the whole 10 years, apart from crashing one car and buying another. yawn

You?

Thanks Biff, hug too busy for cracking open the champagne, but I don't mind. laugh

It sounds as if things are going good for you as well. applause
Biff, all we can do is have no regrets, never look back in anger, learn from the past, and look to the future.
Hi Biff 3 years ago, I was in a relationship longterm that I knew I had to run from.... but was in that mode of still lovin
g the man, even though red flags were at the door.

I lost some friends, I did infact leave my lover /partner and went through what I can only call 'hard grief' and it was hard going back to living alone.

I have gone back to painting now. Water based oils, Acrylic, Watercolours, short stories, and sometimes poetry.

I have become somewhat of a hermit, I love my own company but havenot become odd, I do love to natter , and I adore eccentric people... plenty on here.

I also have this dream of owing a small humble dwelling in Spain, but the red tape surrounding my dream, are making it harder for me. I know I would love to live 6 months of the year, in the warm sun. cool
3 years ago I had lost everything I had worked over many years to build upon. I became homeless for almost 2 very long years. Two of my 3 "kids" have moved out on their own....one has given me two grandchildren and the other engaged to be married. 3 years ago....becoming homeless, to now...a lot has happened. I'm slowly picking up the pieces and progressing forward. I now have a nice car, a good job, a roof over my head....though it's a shared apartment with a roommate....but considering where I've been and how far I've come, I haven't done half bad peace
Enigma, well done on coming back from the abyss cheering
GG wow another major journey. All these histories going on behind the scenes and all basically positive and upbeat, good attitude going onward and upward, love this. hug
Enigma, YEAH dancing

Do you know, this is what keeps me coming back to CS. There are times when the squabbling sort of drowns out the positives

and then - you guys. Coping. Moving on, making life happen.

I love that. teddybear


Yeah yeah no more mushy stuff.

But I do love it yay
So many people have real stories, and just get on with things.

Only the same few are always negative and complaining.

Well done all! cheering
Not the comedians part - but reality show? No-one would believe it. wow

Hi biff

IAmXIndeed - hi! and yes, I had a 10 year trudge where nothing changed and it was all mildly awful. Things do change. Sometimes they get absolutely horrible and you look back longingly at the mildly awful and yet - change brings opportunity and growth. Even if you hit bottom - then there's nowhere to go but up. hug Thanks for posting
Yes Biff! yay yay yay


Can't wait!! applause applause applause
