*The good news daily chat thread*16th Feb 2009

I know this is the good news thread today so I feel a bit guilty.........but I felt this morning like just getting up and walking out of my office and going home and hiding, not in relation to anything that had happened........I feel so horrendously down today, I've not felt like this for a very, very long time....

*hugs* bb... is it just an off day or something that's a regular occurance?

Oh :grouphug: dodgy hugs BB, how are you feeling now ?

DD - you're alive!!!:j

The nerves re the sweep aren't from a health/medical perspective, they're a side effect of being abused as a child and assaulted as a teenager. I just need to get on with it and I'll be fine:o .

Len, they'll give me an induction date tomorrow after my sweep but it'll be around 22nd Feb to give it time to work before my 14 days are up.

BB - big hugs hun. Hope you feel better soon.

Burlesque_Babe

feel just the same Inky Feel like getting pished. It's a long time since I've felt this bad. I guess I'll feel better soon Sar, I need to just listen to how I feel and recognise if it is just a bad day or signs of something longer. If I have a 'high', it's an amazing,'speedy' feeling and a low day is crashingly awful, and today is a low day.

Perhaps I'm tired. Perhaps money is playing on my mind a bit mixed in with thoughts of where work is 'taking' me job-wise and the feelings that go with the possible options.

Wish I could lend you Casper. He's being extra cuddly today and couldn't help but make you feel better

Hiya DD, welcome back, you have been missed

BB :grouphug: is there anything we can do?

InkyCats20

Don't know what to suggest BB but do know what you mean, there are times when I feel so low, for no specific reason that I just want to curl up & hide away.
I know it'll pass eventually but that's not much help when you're actually feeling like that - sorry :sad:

Worries about the job ? Is this to do with the merging you mentioned ?

Burlesque_Babe

ooooooooooooh, I'll be fine I think.........I think it's a mixture of my financial situation getting quite desparate and the merger perhaps not going to throw up anything that I am qualified to do - there could be some nice jobs, but nothing within my current level of experience within this area of work. The job I think I will be offered will be going back to my old line of work and I don't think it will be for very much money, it will probably mean working full time and teaching and AQA'ing still to make enough money.

Hey Cat whens your babby due?

She's due on 21st April but because of the gestational diabetes they're going to induce me around 7th April. And I've just realised that the SMP goes up from 5th April to £123.06 as opposed to the £117.18 (here):j :j :j Strangely it's only mentioned in the paternity leave section and not in the maternity leave section!
