Sorry....had to disappear for a while... About every 7-10 years I have done a big change but some are bigger than others,,,between mid 1992 and end of 1993 I had changed careers, been divorced, met my current housemate/ ex , and moved to birmingham,,,,at which point the relationship ended but I'd already burned my bridges as it were... Approx 7 years ago I gave up nursing,after a big burn out... Now I feel a mega change coming on...that usually means what I do will change, how I look (I've had 18 years of being reasonably conventional) and I suspect where I live may be prey to a rethink too... As you will have noticed relationship ended 1993....so despite living with someone in the same house I have effectively been on my own a long time,,, getting old before my time... and I have said in a few posts recently how unhappy I am with my appearance...soo watch this space
