My diabetes is pretty manageable at the moment as I just need to control my diet, but I probably will be starting on some medication for it in the next year.  I'll post some proper WIW posts once I get my wardrobe clearout done, I promise! harmonica on "Checking In Again- Hello from an old member" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/checking-in-again--hello-from-an-old-member#post-999676 Tue, 06 Aug 2013 11:24:05 +0000 harmonica 999676@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Welcome back!

(of course I remember "our bike girl":-) It sure has been an eventful three years for you! I hope the diabetes is under control? Wishing you and your fiance all the happiness in the world in your apartment! And of course, we're very much looking forward to seeing you post again (loving the sound of the new bob, I hope we'll get to see a photo?-) Dawn on "Checking In Again- Hello from an old member" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/checking-in-again--hello-from-an-old-member#post-998489 Sun, 04 Aug 2013 15:09:23 +0000 Dawn 998489@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Hi everyone, thanks for your welcome back. Unfortunately there's no room in our romantic garret for bikes, so they're staying in my parents until we can afford somewhere bigger. My hair is shoulder length now, but I'm going to get it cut into a choppy bob when I get back from my travels in mid-August.

Hi Dawn !!!!  I remember "talking" on the forum about  building a modest wardrobe for your year abroad without dying from heat exhaustion.   Wow, a lot has happened in those three years. I am especially glad that you have found someone wonderful to share your time with. Congratulations on your engagement. Thank you so much for popping in. It is really good to hear from you.

Looking forward to getting to know you! Dawn on "Checking In Again- Hello from an old member" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/checking-in-again--hello-from-an-old-member#post-993839 Tue, 30 Jul 2013 11:50:13 +0000 Dawn 993839@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Hi everyone, I'm checking into the forum after a long long absence of nearly 3 years. I used to be an active member of the forum, and as life changed after I moved to the UAE a couple of years ago, I never got around to checking back on the forum and posting. So after moving back home to Ireland last year and eventually finding some free time, I'm reading the forum again and really eager to join the YLF conversations again. In a brief update, my life over the last 3 years has been hectic. I broke up with my college boyfriend, met the love of my life 1 month after that, moved to the UAE for a year, got engaged, moved back to Ireland, moved into a teeny tiny apartment with my fiance, put on weight, was diagnosed with diabetes, lost weight, grew out my pixie and started running. Lots of craziness over a short period of time.  Looking forward to posting again, Dawn
