Well life has been busy, I am now in my new role as a Liaison Support Manager, although only temp for 3 months (covering sickness) my manager has said if I "continue to impress her" she will keep me Even if I took a step back to Liaison Officer this company provide a car, so we will be quids in. I like the company and culture so I'd taken cleaner if offeredD

Mum and Dad's house went up for sale and the first people to view offered just less than the value price, we waited till today's viewing to decide. Today's was a developer who offered us less, but said they could complete quick. We have gone with the first viewer who are first time buyers, a young couple starting out. They came back with a higher offer. After accepting we found out (as none of us had the heart to be at the viewing) that the young lad is the son of one of my dad's friends. My mum and dad will be pleased. I cried. Mum and dad lived in the house 56 years, and it hurts to see it go. Although mum didn't leave a will her wish was that anything they left when they died was to be split 7 ways. My brother's share (he died at 17) is to go to Air Ambulance. When the outstanding mortgage is paid we'll get a tidy sum, which will help no end, but at what price. I suppose everyone goes through these emotions

Oh! Funeral update. Last week my friend's dad died. So on Tuesday I attend my 5th Funeral in 5 months!
