Morning all. Got an email last night from the other job explaining it a bit more and giving me dates (basically starting nowish if I agree) and I'm in a bit of a spin.

Need to draw up a pros and cons list because the jobs are roughly the same, wages will be different by a considerable amount a week, slightly different length of contract. One show is trashier than the other. And it's probably going to be working from home vs being in an office. I hate being forced into making decisions. Feel a bit sick

All the best to bubbs- wishing you a very speedy recovery x

Yep emma, a pros and cons list a good thing to do. Be objective and you'll get the result that works out best

Just hàd miñi meltown at college. I'm not coping

'Nanababe. Take it in your stride, you are prob doing a fab job - but putting on yourself too much. Let home things slide a bit, do pizza/salads/beans on toast for dinner for a few weeks til you get into a routine. You'll get there :A

Im run ragged. The days I'm not at college I work and between all that and running family home its getting to me. I'm constantly shattered. I'm not even sure why I'm there !

I find the classes where there is a right answer like accounting or It straightforward. The others that just drone on for two hours not so much. But I promised hubby I would try.

I'll struggle on see what happens x thanks TM xx

My MIL would be the same! We surprise-visited her once and although she was happy to see us, I could tell she was upset that she hadn't had time to clean before we arrived. You'll just take it a step at a time, you can't expect it all to slot into place straight away, but you'll get there.

I'll be honest and say that my DH can count the number of lectures he went to per year of uni on two hands, but he still got a 2.1 because he's good at working on his own, taking the lecture notes and working from that, he didn't feel the need to sit there for the sake of it. It varies for different subjects and for different people, so you have to do what you think is best to help you get where you want to be, and sometimes that might be studying by yourself or doing whatever else needs to be done.

I'm a bit like that at times. I need peace to get on with stuff. The class are a good bunch of folk I wasn't the only one struggling today.

But yes I need to give it more time, if all I come out with is a few units and some learning. Its OK xx

Just phoned school re ds2s autism/adhd assessment to see if they have recieved some paperwork to fill in. They said that they have and his new teacher had filled it in....I am glad that it is getting done but I thought that seeing as the forms are asking about how ds2 is in different situations they should have been done by his teacher from last year as she knows him well whereas the new (supply) teacher has only known him for a few days I said nowt because didn't want to seem pushy.

Anyway, I couldn't get over it and rang back asking if his old teacher could look over the forms and check that she agrees with the responses given, the senco said that she had wondered if his old teacher would have been better placed to do it in the first place...the mind boggles sometimes. So frustrating that these are the people who I trust to make sure he gets what he needs

DS2 lost 5 minutes of play yesterday andhas minus two brownie points (or whatever they call them) because he was struggling to sit and write a couple of sentences.

Sorry to rant but sat here alone so p***d off

hiya. I'm fine thnaks, just mega busy and can't seem to keep up on here. I lurk occasionally - I'm actually working on a Tues/Wed/Thurs instead of being on here...naughty boss giving me things to do.

On a good note, hubby and i are going to book a hol mid Nov (our belated 10th wedding anniversary treat to ourselves). Was thinking of the carribean but found somewhere in Mexico yesterday that looks out of this world. need to ring the travel agent Caribbean warehouse as they have beaten every price I've found so far.

Hope your painkillers kick in soon and you sleep it off x

i know! she is a little cutie, loves frozen (like most kids). mum bought her a CD so we all had it on in the car last night, singing away. Her words are "na na na na let it go, let it go, na na na" and she sounds like a wailing cat.. (I'm being kind:p). no chance of x factor for her :rotfl:

Morning all! Morning tweets, hope you're getting over the shock of yesterday x

Glad you've got your procedure over with bubbs, I wish you a speedy recovery .

Banababe, don't give up too soon and make a decision you will later regret. I know it's really hard juggling things when you've got a family, but the course won't last forever. I find batch cooking a Godsend at times when I am busy - it's something nice and relaxing you can do on a late Sunday afternoon with some music or maybe the telly on, especially going into winter, and it's very little more work than just cooking a single meal. Maybe the family could help out a bit more if you tell them it's hard going at the moment? Just little things can be a big help sometimes. Good luck hun.x
