Oh dear MFD, really hope it works out for you. Hopefully they will realise once you've done 3mths that they can't manage without you.

It is Weezl, and also because in order to be certificated as a philosophical counsellor one must spend some time in counselling. Two birds, one stone.

I figure that at the moment I'm a bit wobbly, and if I had a chair that was a bit wobbly I'd fix myself before it catapulted the person sitting on me onto the floor. So I should do the same for myself.

:mad: OI LADY!!! Are you after my post as the wise old bird of the thread? :mad:







:T May we all be as reflective and honest as you in our times of wobbliness :T

Did you just call me an old bird? :rotfl:

I've just noticed that I started out by talking about owning a chair and ended up talking about being a chair. Clearly psychiatric intervention is not a moment too soon

Thanks hun. It is a bizarre situation which has taken it's toll on me in many ways...I spent my maternity leave writing a tender which has still not been awarded so I feel a bit 'robbed' of my time concentrating solely on my son in some ways.

I have considered walking away many times but I have 2 others whose jobs depend on me staying so it is not an easy decision.

It is a good job that I love the role, it certainly wouldn't be worth it otherwise.

Mostly I am robbed of sleep!!! The only mummy whose baby mostly sleeps through and I still struggle for more than a few hours at a time. I was wide-eyed at 2am this morning, having not managed to get any sleep at all.


Good job us mummies can cope on 4 hours a night :cool:

If you love your job then it's worth it, but you must sleep!!!

I'm now sensibly and reasonably smartly dressed. I'd be very smartly dressed if I CBA to iron and there wasn't a small orange handprint on my trousers. Why does Molly insist on squidging her food before she will eat it?
