    hi all again
    Having a little bit of a down time here - things at work are just horrible, with various things making me feel like I really really am not supported or particularly wanted in my department, and I'm considering my options. it's times like this that it really gets me downa bout the debt as if it wasn't for the debt, I might be able to explore other options but feel utterly trapped at the moment. I really dislike my current situation, and am really trying to change things so it's better, but it doesn't seem to be working at all.

    Ah what a lot of self pitying waffle!!

    I know I'm lucky to have a job and job security so shouldn't really moan.

    But we spend a long time at work so if things are not ok then that makes life difficult.
    Maybe you are just having a wee off day?

    HI Sea. What makes you think you are not wanted in your dept? It's not just that you are feeling down generally colouring your view? Why would they now want a lovely person like you?

    but if they really don't appreciate you - well there are schools everywhere. That's one sector that isn't going to go away with any recession. You can find a new job any time you want.

    hugs for you - horrible when you feel out on a limb/unsupported....also know what you mean re the debts being a bind...just limits your options and enabling you to live how you would like. Bound to be up and down for a bit as you adjust to your new life! hugs for you and hoping youre all well after recent cold etc...

    Hi Sea..sorry exoh is a prat as usual and that you are feeling unsupported/unappreciated at your job..I remember you feeling the same last year..think it was about the time you started full time.Could some of the feelings be stress related due to changes as it must be hard Sophia being unwell..arranging to get your kids where they need to be and working full time as well as all the other responsibilities.
    You are coping fantastically well and you are a fantastic mum.I'm sure things will feel a bit easier in time as you get back into your own routine.
