To feel a bit lonely

I turned 30 5 minutes ago, but I'm all by myself. It's been a rough year, went from a successful career and a wonderful relationship to being a lone parent and having to give up my job due to MH issues. I toasted my birthday in with a bottle of prosecco (and 2 shots at midnight) and I'm just feeling a bit sad. It's not all bad, I have great friends and I'll be seeing one later...just having a bit of a wobble and will probably regret starting a self pitying thread after too much wine tomorrow

Happy Birthday. You've had your wobble -it's good to get that out of the way early on! Have a great day with your friend -lunch/shopping/dance the night away. This is going to be your year. Close the door on everything bad that has happened and make plans for your year ahead. Dream big, Aim high, You are going to kick ass! Smile

Thank you lovely people. I am trying to focus on all the positives in my life and make the most out of every day because actually there are lots of things I should be appreciating....I just need to remember that when I wake up!!

Happy Birthday DontTouchTheMoustache! Everyone is allowed a wobble here and there, don't worry. I hope you had a fab day. Flowers

Awww you guys! I'm having a much nicer time than I expected cos my best friend stayed over and we are drinking prosecco and listening to classic Britney and I actually can't think of anything more fun than that. Tomorrow starts the next step and I'm getting rid of guiltand going to start appreciating all the actual God things and not just being a misery guts!
