Keeping you in my thoughts, Kat xx

Checking in.

Feeling very stressed about the whole EU referendum thing right now in the UK, so I might be offline until Saturday.

I hope your hubby is doing well, Kat.

I am here . Dan's surgery went well
Back home . He is very sore and having a hard time getting comfortable. My heart goes out to him he can only have regular Tylenol for pain . Yikes .

I'm back!
Kat: Glad Dan came through ok, bummer that he can only take Tylenol!
Jen: I was up all of Thursday night watching Sky News' Brexit results, the Cameron resignation & the markets go crazy...WOW!

here again!

Checking in.

I spent Saturday night comforting some friends who'd experienced some rather nasty racial abuse, people shouting racial insults at them in the street and telling them to "**** off back home". They were born in this town. And this morning, I noticed someone had carved swastikas into the glass at my local bus stop. Genuine swastikas. I felt sick.

My partner and I are seriously considering moving abroad. Nowhere's going to be perfect, but for the first time in my life, I don't want to be in my home country.

My nan died earlier this year, and she left me a small amount of money in her will, which I will get towards the end of this year. Its not a large amount, but would enable us to do a once in a lifetime move to somewhere new.

Our first choice would have been Canada, but we probably wouldn't have the right skills to get in. We're looking at whether we'd be able to find somewhere that we could get jobs, have a small but happy home, and settle in to the local community.

Its weird, it makes me feel sad that I'm considering moving, but the idea of the adventure of moving somewhere new is kinda exciting. Its a mix of emotions.
