AIBU to be so bloody proud today

[Yourallmyfavourite1]

I have had what can only be described as the worst possible year I've ever had.
I lost my beloved nan, my dad nearly died in hospital after surgery for cancer.
Me and DH lost our house and are homeless with 5 of our 8 children.
But.. today I passed my first year exams. Never ever did I think it would happen. This is for a professional qualification that will change our lives.
For the past year I have worked so bloody hard, getting up at 3am to do coursework then go to work full time plus spend a little time with the kids. Today it is all worth it.
Just wanted to share

Fuck yeah!! Don't let that shit get you down!

Nice one OP.

Brilliant! Bloody well done, Yourallmyfavourite!

That's wonderful, huge congratulations.

But according to another thread, you mustn't mention it on Facebook....

Congratulations, that's fab. You are very inspiring

Literally never been so proud of a stranger!

Wow... just wow...

Amazing you should be proud and shout all you like

Congratulations!!!

Congratulations! You should indeed be bloody proud.

Here's to everything getting better.

Fabulous!! That's great news!! Well done.

Well done!

Well done! What an achievement - you are an inspiration.

Fantastic achievement - well done Yourallmyfavourite1!

For what it's worth, I remember both my parents doing OU degrees when I was young, and have always felt such pride that they juggled that along with ft work and childrearing. You're doing an amazing thing, and setting a great example. Be so proud.

Amazing, well done & hope you're celebrating tonight!

Lovely. V v pleased for you. Keep it up.

So happy for you after an awful year. I am proud of you too!

Onwards and upwards

Fantastic. Well done, OP. You should be really proud.

Hope things look up for you and your family now.

Wow, I really didn't expect so many messages of support, your all so lovely, thank you.
Happypuppy I didn't choose to have 8 children, we are a blended family and I love every single one of our crazy Brady bunch, we only have 5 with us at the moment because the older 3 are adults and doing their own thing. We can afford them, we don't claim benefits or anything and me and DH work a lot of hours to make sure they have what they need. This degree means we can hopefully move into our own house and get our lives back on track.

Well done

But where are the 3 kids that aren't with you?

Well done you! A brilliant achievement 🌟

Congratulations OP

crunchymum,
The older 3 are working so 1 has his own flat and the other 2 are in a house share nearer to where they work

Thanks for clarifying.

And well done again

Good for you OP 🏆
