duranorak asked me on tuesday whether I know how lucky I am. I think I do...


I've got a good job, part time, with possibilities of more stuff later.
I live with four people I love, who love me and take good care of me.
I have, as a consequence, no financial issues.
I have a man who plans to be with me for life, who I adore, and we together have a beautiful son, and general {family good} stuff.
I have good friends. People I can tell anything, who won't judge, but will be supportive; people I'd do almost anything for.
I've been realy quite crap wrt shermarama, my fabulous fiance's girlfriend, but she's coped with it like the, well, rock she is. Love you! (Love love love love love you. I'm so glad it's finally true)
Noone really hates me anymore, not even Clare.
Oh, and shiny new boyfriend, which is what Emily was actually referring to :)


Even the bad things aren't so bad; yes, I haven't seen my father since I was 12 (and I had been something of a daddy's girl) but, you know, that's worked out OK; I had a miscarriage, but I'm young and was on A/Ds at the time, and one in four women have miscarriages anyway, or something huge like that - far better for there to be an identifiable reason to avoid.
It's difficult to see something good in Chris dieing, but that's less my life, really, and more his.


I just wish I could share some of the good stuff, or even just the lack of bad stuff, around some of you who need it.
