Mysteriosa,
Great news about the job - good start to getting at your debts and easing the strain of living. Hope that your daughter's party was a success and that you sailed through it without anxiety.
Just a little bit of stretching and bending will help your physical aches and pains. I do it while standing around waiting for the food to cook in the kitchen, or the kettle to boil. Try to ease up on your coffee intake - it's a little like sugar, it gives you a rush for a half hour and then drops you into fatigue and nervousness. It's a shame because I love coffee so thick you can stand a spoon vertically in the middle of the mug...damn.Bad habits...
I spoke to my son in the States (by another marriage) and he's delighted that I'm moving back to Canada and he volunteered ("Hey, you're my Dad, man"!?)to come up and help me do all the bureaucratic stuff I have to do to settle back into my home province again. I didn't even have to ask!
All this reaching out, both on this site and to my extended family, is doing me a lot of good. This posting of feelings and thoughts is getting to be an essential part of my recent struggle out of the quagmire of hopelessness... thanks everybody.
Patrick
