    Well, I think in 5 weeks she’s only spent one night at home - and Dom stayed too ....
    The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.

    Do "we" like Dom or do we need to beat him up for going anywhere near Katie? I'm happy to help........

    Si wants to beat him up. But that’s just a dad response. I really like Dom, he’s chatting and engages, he’s actively asking Katie to meet family as he wants to know who’s important in her life. He’s got a clear career path and has worked really hard to get to where he is (he’ll be a Field Sales Manager 1 December) even though he left school with no GCSEs. He’s also a trained chef. He’s left home and rents (he’s 22) and really seems to be switched on. He does suffer with anxiety, but Katie knows how to handle that, and he’s a little clingy - but his last girlfriend really screwed him over so ..... His mum’s a highly functioning alcoholic but he seems to deal with that really well and doesn’t let it impact his life. Katie said last night that they never argue, despite working and living together.

    I’m good apart from a little bunged up and tinnitus. I got a cheque in the post from Motability for £600 as a bonus for my old car going back in excellent condition - which more than pays for the advance payment I made to get my new car I’ve had a surveyor round today as we’re getting a new front door - the old one is so ill fitting you can see daylight round the edges

    He sounds lovely! I don't think that qualifications make much of a difference - it's whether someone is intelligent enough for a good conversation! Sounds like you approve?
    Yay for the payment! We have a new to us front door we are going to fit, but got to wait till we've sorted the bathroom and decorated the hall, stairs and landing.. It makes all the difference doesn't it?

    Little bit of a flare up tonight. I’ve not been 100% today but went out to see my friend (she’s a teacher so half terms and school holidays are the only chance I get to see her). I cancelled housegroup as my whole body aches and, even though Si’s been awesome and doing everything - despite spending the day driving for a one hour grievance meeting with someone who’s claiming she’s been racially discriminated against - my knee is now protesting so much I couldn’t walk and had to send Si to get my crutch.

    Sort of. I’ve got to pay that cheque in but that won’t take long. I’m then having my nails done and my hair cut and coloured. So, not doing nothing but at least being pampered. And I just realised I sound like such a suburban housewife
