      I had an appointment a couple of weeks ago with a WA support worker (who was WONDERFUL). It was a home visit and I had a vase of flowers on the table. We were talking about moving forward alone, after a difficult relationship, despite the difficulties of being single and the fact that I missed him. I pointed to the flowers and quoted Miley Cyrus! It seemed to make her day, which made me feel great. I can indeed buy myself flowers, even if they are only £3 from a well known supermarket. I bought some more today. The only thing about cut flowers is that die!! So lovely to have, though, and a great lift to the spirit. I do put something else back from my shopping to subsidise…and my son is grown up now so my only dependent is a cat. A pot flower is a better investment!!
