According to Forrest Gump's mamma 'Life is like a box of chocolates'.
Well my life certainly includes chocolate, in varying amounts depending on my stress levels.
But my life isn't like a box of chocolates, it's like a sodding great rucksack that some muppet forgot to zip up.
Coping ok with L&M's PTSD and depression, ok let's chuck in a bipolar diagnoses for your daughter.
Coping ok moneywise, ok we'll give you a pay cut and change the L&M's duties to make him unhappy.
Settled nicely in your house, ok, let's make you move as you will no longer afford the mortgage with all the changes at work.
All I can do it hitch up my shoulders a bit higher to take the extra weight in the rucksack, and remember the words of my friend Joy. Chin up and tits out!
Scrimping and saving, ranting and raving. Past retirement age.

You are totally wonderful! Chin up and tits out indeed! You are the antidote to all the whingers in this world because whatever life throws at you, and it has thrown some stuff, you are like one of those round-bottomed Kelly dolls, you bounce right back up again!

I think you are a real trooper - not necessarily by choice - but you do an amazing job. Love the "chin up and tits out" bit too. Anna
your wonderful spirit inspires us all...I'm sorry you (and L&M) are going through such tough times...you certainly don't deserve it...hugs from across the sea...
Hugs, hugs, hugs. Sometimes it is damned tough being a tough old broad.

My daughter's first boss, a lady of ample bosoms, used to say to her colleagues, " teeth and tits, girls. If you can't blind them with the one, they'll be worrying you're goin to bite them with the other!" I hope this year will bring you some calmer times and a lovely new house which you will make into a home. Catriona
