    Wow! I don’t think I can do that now and I’ve been driving since 1992! Well done, lovely
    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.

    I passed my test in 92 as well. 15th December to be precise. Manoeuvres have always been something I excelled at due to my job back then. I was driving on and off of car ramps and moving around a tight forecourt every day before I passed my test.

    You know when you take stuff on and look at the hours they'll take and think it will be fine, you'll have plenty of time! But you're having a good day so completely forget about how a chronic illness affects you?

    Yeah. That.

    I had a deadline Monday, I've handed in a counselling assignment today, I have another deadline Monday, then my level 3 starts on Tuesday, so 2 hour driving lesson and a 3 hour counselling session on the same day! Woohoo for planning!

    I can maybe try and build Wednesday in as a rest day but that will depend on getting on top of my uni work.

    Hey you! You know you are absolutely gonna smash all of this right? I dunno if I’ve ever really said this but I actually have so much admiration for you. Your life has changed massively over the past few years. Taking on your studies, moving in with James, taking on a parenting roll, learning to drive. These are all things that when I first met you, you would never have believed possible. You were in a shitty relationship, confidence was in the gutter and you were lost. It took a while but I’ve watched you grow into the woman you are today and I’m so frigging proud of you. I am truly honoured to be your friend and just seeing you take on challenges and start living your life again is inspirational and it encourages me to get up and keep going and maybe I can turn my life around too. You are epically awesome and you can do anything you put your mind to.
