I am 40 years old and live with my fiance and his 12 year old daughter who has mild learning difficulties. I have a 12 year old daughter who lives with her dad and stays with us every other weekend and school holidays. My fiance also has a 19 year old daughter and a 1 year old granddaughter. They live 100 miles away so we don't see them as often as we would like.
We live in a village in Devon. Our nearest town (more like a large village!) is a 20 minute drive away and city is an hour away. We are quite remote and we love it! Our house is social housing as we could never afford to buy and I think we are very lucky to be out of the expensive private rental market.
We have 3 dogs who we adore. There is Winston the rescued chihuahua who is by far the grumpiest and most stubborn dog I have every met. Then Caramel the chug (chihuahua x pug) who was the runt of the litter and is sooooooo dim! Finally there is Tilley who is a sprollie (springer x colllie). She is very clever, full of energy and the only one who has mastered house training. I would love to get a rottweiler but I'm not sure our house can fit another dog.
My other half works full time but, as with most people in Devon, is on a low wage. I don't work due to being disabled and my step daughter having special needs.
I wont bore you with any more for now. Feel free to ask questions tho :)
