Well guys, life has been a rollercoaster for a long time now, had 5th heart op in nov 11, came back to be made redundant whilst on leave for the op, could not find a job if I tried, my fiance and I split up after 9yrs, I was 30kg overweight at the very least.
In the last few months, I have dropped 15kg and still going, rekindled old friendships, more physically active and hoping to buy a couple kayaks, the ex and I are moving slowly to reconcile and just last week I was employed. Need another car so hoping to save 4k and get a 97 XR8 (fav one behind the ED) and that will be the icing on the cake. So after a rough start to 2013, it seems it may also be the year for change and good things happening for once. |

Good news is good news. There's not enough of it around. Good luck with the missus.
I've just decided to make a big change - buggering work off and going to University to do a bachelor of science with a focus on geology. Well if I'm accepted. Can't stand being behind a desk anymore sitting on my ***. I want something which allows a certain freedom - and if I end up in the mines blowing stuff up for 6 figures all the better! hehe

cool. Would love the ability to just not work and go to uni, but not feasable in my situation. I might look into part time study but.

Sounds like you're heading in the right direction! Just keep a level head and your eye on the big picture. Remember, all good things take a bit of time so as long as you're patient, the worlds your oyster.

It`s hard to roll with the punches sometimes, but it always gets better, keep on plugging mate.
