My Dad won £14,000 on the Irish lottery today!!!
  Infact he won it last week, he just hadn't bothered checking his numbers.

  He is going to give me a thousand to help with my university fees.  woo!  Life is good sometimes.  With the money Ive saved up it means I need not worry about my first year.   I was so worried you see, having just put a deposit down on a new flat with Phil, and knowing I would have less spare hours to work once I began college. The money I was trying to save was woefully slipping away into bills and fees.

 We got a house in the country. Away from the city with a view of cows in fields and a forest (the front view is unfortunately of a supermarket!!)

And Phil has his new job as a qualified RLD Nurse.

   Maybe I should tell the fucker to marry me now.

Congratulations to your dad, you, Phil (for the flat), and your Mum, too, for the hell of it! :D

I'm so happy that life is going so well for you Lindsey. You're an amazing person, and I knew that life would start to fall into place for you at some point. It didn't just "fall" into place--you worked hard to put the pieces of your life in place just right to suit you. :.)

Thanks :) I guess its true,even when I was unemployed I have worked hard painting and learning about autism so and has come together as the opportunity to train to become a therapist. Sometimes you have to keep pushing foward in the direction you want, even if you don't know where the road leads to. Perhaps we can't always see our goal in the distance until we get there.

Its good for my dad to. He has worked extremely hard all his life as a postman, working forty eight hour weeks walking the streets and retired on a meagre pension. He wants to extend the kichen with the rest of the money so he can sell the house and move to a smaller house up the road that is "off this goddamn hill" lol! we live on at the top of an enormously steep hill and we dont drive!

You know, with the exchange rate as it is, you could buy New Jersey with that.
