As to her upbringing, mum takes all due credit for that, although I admit to adding a few, er, interesting embellishments along the way, as has her uncle. Her boyfriend sat 5 'A' levels & got 5 As; I think I'm warming to him after 2 years :~} Thanks for your kind words, & for your information, she's a crypto-sceptic after my own heart, although she's still not averse to the odd flight of fancy. Subject: Re: Congrats From: /PJ posted Sun, Aug 23 2009, 5:38pm  Congrats to all of you. Well done! This past 2 years have been a blur for me, and one hell of a roller coaster ride. I'm a first-time grandma, my "baby" graduated and turned 18, I lost both parents (Does that mean I'm an orphan?) and a few assorted other loved ones, I was laid-off, moved to a new city; but life goes on, and we do the best with what we've got. I'm actually suprised and a bit proud I didn't fall back into the bad habits I once had "to see me through" (If you catch my meaning?) There's only one word I can think of that describes the way I feel today: "Blue". I'm not sad or depressed, I'm not happy or giddy, not nostalgic or homesick but longing for the past anyhow...I was told this is normal, and it will pass with time. I know my kids are relatively happy and healthy, grandbaby is too, friends are having similar trials and tribulations which makes me feel almost normal again (LOL). Raise a glass to the future for me, and I'll do the same for you. Cheers! Subject: Re: Congrats From: Stu posted Sun, Aug 23 2009, 7:44pm  Thanks Patti. Some of the "mum" comments were made with you partially in mind.
