If you could change one thing in your life

[Wineisrequired]

What would it be ? I think mine would be to have changed jobs years ago . I now feel like that as I’ve been there so many years I lack the confidence to move.

For my body to be rid of all the health conditions I suffer from.

To be cancer free Only that! I honestly could cope with anything else. It’s like a gun to my head, never knowing when the trigger will get pulled!!

I'd be 6 inches taller.

Basically everything else is, if not perfect, perfectly good enough.

I'm only 4ft9 though, and it would be nice to be able to reach the bottom shelf

I wish I was in a relationship

To have left my second ex husband when I found the first email between him and his boyfriend instead of accepting his lies at face value for further years until finding out the truth five years on, by which time we'd bought a house together

To be significantly slimmer. I'm a size 14 so not huge but I've never been slim since I had the DC.

I wish I’d finished uni and got my degree. My exH forced me to leave in my second year (I married young!).

I’ve done ok for myself since (since finally divorcing anyway!) and am at a weird point where doing a degree is actually quite a big risk. But I do wish I’d finished it.

Finally conquer my compulsive eating.

Get rid of my anxiety!

To have been better with money in my 20 & 30s

To have my mum back

I’d go back to a beach in Yorkshire in 1988 and say yes instead of no.

I'd be incredibly rich

To not have OCD, it's ruining my life.

I wouldn’t have had DC. My body is ruined and I’ll never look attractive or be pain free again. It’s impacted on my self confidence in every way. I cry daily and can’t look at myself in the mirror. It’s destroyed my marriage because I won’t let DH look at me or touch me. My DC is a joy but not worth this.

Mmm. I would have stood up to my dad aged 19 and taken the degree I wanted. That would knock out all the things in my life that tick me off.
