RE: Our house

What a miraculous journey!

You know what I love about this? The way you just rattle off what happened as if it ain't no thing but in reality at the time it was probably the most devastating thing you'd experienced! It shows how far you've come, how it's empowered you and made you a better version of you...The same, but more.

We learn about ourselves at times like this...Sometimes is breaks and at others, like with you, it strengthens; Lessons we need to learn? Yes, I think so, and lessons we may not learn but for that adversity. You obviously had no choice but to push on and own it you did!

I must admit, when you said drag racing I was relieved...I thought you were going to say drugs which could have taken the story in different directions although the result was the same in the end...@Jaynie rises from the ashes like a phoenix!

Thanks for sharing this. If I was with ya I'd give you a fist bump, or probably a hug, so...yeah, you'll have to administer said physical contact yourself. Proceed.

Well that was a different time in my life and an entirely different story - but yes, like you said... same result at the end of the day so, no regrets to be frank.

Well as long as it is not a head butt! hahahaha!!!

Life goes on... that is the one thing I have learnt well... that, and the fact that every situation and circumstance is a teacher of some kind... so - learn what you can, grow to the best of your ability and at a pace that works for you and most importantly... just enjoy it all because you never know when it will end :)

Apologies for the delay in responding. I was in a queue at the hospital when I wrote the original reply to you and have just had so much on my plate since. Off to surgery at 5am tomorrow... hoping all goes well... wish me luck and advanced apologies again for delays in responding to anything you may reply to this haha!

Have a lekker weekend!

I love how you look at adversity, probably because it aligns with the way I approach it also. It's great that you've triumphed and are moving forward...Adversity may strike again, but you're more prepared through the last episode.

No worries on the late response, not an issue at all. An operation? I'd say have a lekker operation but that's probably not the right things to say...How about have a successful one! Yeah, that works better.

Keep us apprised on how the op went ok?
