Title: Things are better
Post by: RSJK on December 25, 2007, 17:56:43

hi all hope you all have a good 2008, as a few of you know I had a bad start to his year and things came to an head when I lost my Father in March 2 days after my birthday, I must of been as low as I could get at the time and thought that things would not get better, but in September I started a new job and quickly got promoted 3 times in nearly as many weeks, something that as never happened to me before in my life. Glad I took advice from some of you and hung in there no one can replace my Dad but things at last are looking up for me and I would like to thank you all for your support earlier in the year.

  Thank you and a happy new year

                        Richard.

Richard, great news from you, hope 2008 continues to bring you happiness.
Although it is 5 years come 9th Jan since we lost the "boss" after 50 years wed I still
think "if only" especially when we are having family get togethers (like yesterday at young Lorna's next door) but life goes on. I am blessed with wonderful children and the "boss" would be so cross if I didn't go forward.
Good luck for 2008.
