    Evening everyone

    Been MIA again due to visiting family and starting new job. Not sure I am in the right job, have already been told off several times for things i did not know and I have been there less than a week. Shall see how it goes, but if things carry on like this, I will be looking elsewhere.

    DS1 has moved in and is trying to go back to college. He has no Level 2 qualification so I thought he would get government funding. It seems that a lot has been withdrawn unless we are claiming benefits. He is 22 and has been told varying costs at different colleges, anything between £1500 & £4000. He has managed to get a part time job though.

    os today kitchen cleaned, sorted out 3 drawers in boys room, sorted out all washing, ironing done. refusing to do anything else tonight too tired now.

    Sorry have been reading the thread but not able to post. Unfortunately my brain is not working tonight and I cant remember anything so HUgs to anyone that needs/ wants one. Take Care

    topsy, sorry to hear that the job is not going too well.If you are getting told off for things that you were not aware of then you have not been given enough training and should complain to the manager.
