janey_girl Posted July 2, 2009 Report Share Posted July 2, 2009 Sometimes it's hard to appreciate just how much we achieve, we almost dismiss it out of hand. I know it's tough - I'll start the ball rolling....I have passed my driving test and have been driving for about 17 yearsI have lived abroad for 18 months (Ibiza for 12 of those!)I was a police officer for 18 months and left because I wanted toI work full timeI have my own place (albeit tiny)I have friendsI got a C at AS Psychology in night schoolI completed and passed "Introduction to Social Sciences" course which is 1/2 a year of a degree equivalentI created the Excel forms we use for reporting every week at workPeople think I'm a bit of an Excel guruI lost 6 stone in 9 months and was a poster girl in my local city (through weight watchers and the gym) - and apart from the 10lbs from holiday I've maintainedI have a boyfriend who loves me - nutty as I am sometimesMy colleagues respect me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
