    Well done J! Counselling can be so tough. Did you go with him?

    So glad your parents came round for tea! What did they think of your home?

    Really good! Still on circuits but practised bay parking today. Managed to do the full manoeuvre with no input from Bob.

    It was a telephone appointment but she said that I appear to be a really good influence on him. Gave him lots of hugs later too.

    My mum really struggled to get in the house, the front step is HUGE! But it should be easier once the decking is finished.

    I know that struggle to get in anywhere! Once she was in did she love it? See you as happy and comfortable as you seem to be?

    Good! I imagine it was quite emotional for them both! Your Mum especially!

    I only got to see where Katie is living last week - a year after she left home. It was a relief that she was safe and happy, but also tough knowing she definitely wasn’t coming home. All ridiculous emotions but it was disconcerting ......
    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.

    Hopefully when the decking is finished my mum will find it easier to get in the house so they can come here more often.

    J finishes work for 2 weeks from tomorrow, so we're planning on tiling the kitchen! And sorting the summerhouse. And I'm going to see what I can do in the downstairs toilet. And painting the decking, mocing A's playhouse, start painting the fencing. I'm excited to get started!!!
