I've posted about this before but I'm feeling quite low about my situation and would welcome a bit of encouragement.
Moved house for a new job - it was about this time last year that I got an offer on the place I was selling and could start the process in earnest.
Also about this time last year that was the last time my dad spoke to me. I called him to ask his advice about a back boiler as I'd never heard of one, then nothing else was ever said. I got a text on christmas day. No questions about how the move was going.
He said he would help me out a bit with moving costs but never did. I did it on my own and with help from friends. I lived in a variety of fairly hair-raising temporary situations till my purchase came through, because I was on a tight budget. I started my new job. It seems to be going well.
None of my family know where i live now. I thought I'd wait and see how long it was before any of them asked how the move was going, so far it's 12 months.
Most of the time I'm fine with it, last week was a special 'what's great about family' programme on the radio and it has knocked me a bit.
I don't need them, do I?
