Hi guys

Sorry its been a while since I've posted, life has been very busy, and there have been lots of positive changes.
The main life change is that I started my new job last monday. :cheer:

I'm now a clerk in the national health service. Its a physical job which keeps me on my feet all day, and is getting me fitter by the day- in one week I've lost 2 pounds in weight. This is the first job I've had in over a year, so it has been quite a shock to the system, I've never slept so well at night, and my feet havent ached as much in a long time, but its good to be back working, feeling useful and contributing.

I'm also at college doing a photography course which is a great outlet for my creativity, and I'm getting to meet new and interesting people, and getting to see much more of the area I live in, so many castles and fantastic coastlines.

Have I also mentioned that I was given a PRS guitar as a present this week, no, well go check my other post and see my pictures on my profile!

Yesterday Laura and I celebrated being together 5 years, which is quite a milestone, considering some people thought we wouldnt last, mainly due to the age difference- theres 12.5 years between us ( we like proving people wrong :P )

So, all in all, my life is so much better now than it was when I wrote that long rambling depression laden post last year, its so much more positive, so much more healthy, filled with better people and much more enjoyable.

So, to all you guys on the site who know me and have helped, no matter how much, thank you from the bottom of my heart, it really has helped, knowing that there are people who are genuinely interested in me and want the best for me.

I hope to see you all around more soon

Mr Positive (Joe :P )

Thanks for the update.

Hey Joe,

Thats awesome man. I'm really glad to hear you're back on your feet. Literally even! LOL Keep the good attitude, sometimes it seems all you have is the attitude so it might as well be a good one.

FanTab on being together for 5 years! Do you plan on removing the leg irons anytime soon? LOL My wife and I have also proved many wrong. Keep it up, soon they will be betting FOR you instead of against you.
