To new beginnings. To the pursuit of...somethingness.

I know the feeling, groan groan groan but I'm trying not to be so mindless today as I usually am - so I'm just off to Sainsbo, don't have any veg in the house at all, hardly.

Good luck with getting on with the stuff.

I had to go into a nearby town this morning and when I had got parked my student work boss was walking through town so I hid until she had gone as I just know she would have wanted to know why I hadn't dropped some work off on my way by.

I just wasnt in the mood as late last night I spent an hour trying to resolve whether a facebook/former work contact had genuinely just taken an overdose or was just playing a game with me. We let it rest that he was bored in hospital but I have found out today that he genuinely was suicidal and has now spoken to his drs. He is getting stick from others now but has sent me a message to let me know how he is and hopes we are still "friends". This has really thrown me, especially with Dh and nephews history .

Oh dear ME what an awful way to spend late Sunday evening. It can be so difficult to know what to do for the best in these situations. I am glad that you got it resolved. I think that when people feel really low and crying for help then they are unlikely to really want to "end" it and so there is no way that you could ignore that call. I hope that you are ok now. The problem when people feel that low is that it can suck the life out of all around them. You take care of yourself and dont worry about what people are saying about your "friend" just focus on your relationship with him. If it means that you need to step away for your own health then do that without guilt. Unfortunately I have recently taken a step back from a particular situation because I realised that it wasnt doing my own health any good.
Take care of yourself

I knew you would understand :kisses3: I havent seen this person for ages, his wife has got involved so hopefully they will get it sorted with support. I just feel so drained, DH has told me not to reply to his latest message and just leave it, which is what I'm going to do.

I've even just managed to do some work :eek:

That is really, really awful, I'm so sorry you had to go through that I would have hidden from the boss too, by the way .... hope you're feeling a bit better now, I find that that sort of stuff really knocks me off kilter

MrsMoo2U

Thanks for the smiley ME

I do understand because I have been in a similar situation. I admit that I have recently stopped responding to some texts because I have no energy left to devote to others and have realised that, despite the best efforts to listen and be there it isnt enough and I always seem to be the one that loses sleep. No more. You should listen to your OH, he is right. Take a step back and look after yourself. Glad that you got some work done. I find that when I am at a loss with what to do about something work is a good place to hide.

Following on from my I am rich post................ I am now officially poor again Well cash poor for the next couple of weeks but then I should be asset rich in about 3 weeks I think. This means that I am going to have to work out a brand new budget and get organised for my whole new outlook on life.

Morning, I'm much better thanks. x

I really don't blame you on not getting involved, just like us with the toxics .

Love the sound of asset rih as that means Austria is a step closer .

MrsMoo2U

Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear.

Tell me again why bankers get paid so much money. I am amazed at just how many times in the last week major mistakes have been made with my money. Has anybody apologised? Has anybody understood the utter stress and anxiety that they have caused? Yep you guessed it....... not a bloomin chance. I should be an international banker because that is what I have been doing all week.... putting other people's mistakes right. Not only does it stress me out but it causes me to have major rows with Mr C because he asks me a question and I just flip. Poor man, although I do wish he would just grin and accept I am stressed but NO he has to add flippin fuel to the fire by retaliating to my rant. OK I know I should ignore it but I cant.

Remind me again why I want to beggar off to Austria? Gin anybody?

Oh and to add to the day from Hell you can bet that I have to relive it by listening to the whole tale being relayed down the phone in a 2 hour phone call to Mr C senior. Old women have nothing on him.

Oh Cheri! You poor thing ... Is gin your tipple? Do you have some? The sun is well over the yardarm, even if it is midsummer's day ... have a stiff one and a big hug
