    Thank you for your kind words, I’m my own harshest critic all the time, always questioning every minute decision that I make. I think what doesn’t help is my upbringing where so was always scolded, treated differently to my sister, told I can’t do this or can’t do that because of the conditions I had and the two marriages I’ve been through to say the least. But by living on my own for the last 7 months for the first time in 41 years, is by far my biggest challenge, the flat feels like a cell, the noise is deafening beyond belief, I’m missing having an animal around that’s for sure, once my flats decorated I’m going to be saving to adopt a young Labrador to train up to be my assistance dog with suitable socialisation and suitable support and help. I’ve even considered applying for the Dog House on Channel Four which may be a good way to find a suitable dog and also tips, help and advice. It makes me mad when some companies want upwards of £20,000 for a fully trained dog, how can normal people to be able to afford that sort of fee.

Yes love that program a dog definitely makes a house a home for me personally I never feel lonely with my two pooches it's good you have plans to focus on once you do up your flat the way you like your get adjusted I've been married twice the second one torn me apart godI was like hounding him at work his place I couldn't accept haven't seen him for years and the first time in a long time I got a bus he was the driver !!! This is childish I looked at him and went err yuck and honestly I meant it he probably thought she was crazy over me he said you don't have to pay oh wow 3 pounds I said no you take it and went sat down with my two dogs in a buggy it's funny how at the time I never thought I'd recover and now thier just memories we have to guide ourselves through this life so really at this moment in time be proud of all the little wins as you move forward doing you flat and finding your little companion

    sounds like he was an utter tool, I must admit I thought my first ex wife had done more damage. But my second wife absolutely ripped out my heart and stamped all over it. She owes me over £2,000 but I’m just letting go for the sake of my health. I just miss the cuddles with my boy, he weighed 30KG, he was an unusual cross breed, Staffy x Whippet. I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better dog to rescue when someone didn’t want him on Facebook. He ran like a Whippet, but pulled like a Staffie on the lead. But he was gentle, kind, massive heart and always would check on me with my mental health. We called him Ozzy The Prince of Barkless as he never barked.

    sadly for him he has to live with my ex and her new fella. But I’ll put a collage of his photos on the wall, to remind me of how an animal can read your mind and sole.

    I'm feeling off balance , anxiety over the pip re-assessment form on its way , been looking at touring caravans to live in just in case my pip is taken off me and i lose all benefits apart from basic UC.

    Looking at generators so i can use my cpap while i sleep if we need to hand keys back to mortgage and live in a caravan . We wouldn't be able to keep up mortgage payments if i lose all benefits .

    Feeling trapped .

    I must admit I do contemplate at times how he will be doing as he will be ten now, having a dog is like having a kid. They drive you mad at times, but you love all there quirks and daft moments. I’m 50/50 on what sort of breed I want to get, with me having a very long bathroom and bedroom, with a small kitchen and bathroom alongside an open hallway and stairs. I’m wanting a medium sized breed, to aid me with steadiness, alongside helping to break the cycle of me staying in the flat all the time. I would take he or she up to the lakes and scotland for a holiday. Just having a furry friend again would be amazing to say the least. One factor I’m taking into consideration is grooming, having a lot of fluffy hair and dander wouldn’t be good for my old bagpipes, thinking a short haired breed, who doesn’t bark a lot, is easy to train and would be maybe a working breed. I’m also thinking of adopting a little parrot as well for someone to talk to and plus I love them, they probably would be swearing by the end of the week 😂
