    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    Perhaps we should all get a big red marker pen and write in huge capital letters MSE all over the papers and return all the stuff back in their envelope!

    If they got lots of MSE'ers doing that they might realise!
    Who's up for starting 'The red marker club'?

    I never get credit card offers through the post anymore :(

    Morning all, well I would say I was glad it was Friday but OH is still being grumpy and have just had a project at work (that three of us have worked on for 9 months) rubbished by one of the managers. So I won't approach anything near 'glad' until about 4pm... :rolleyes:

    I'm home and jobless, lol!
    But I feel surprisingly happy!
    DH wasn't upset with me either which is good-basically, I gave Mr Wuckfit a few choices-either let me get on with my job and stop second guessing me or tell me to go-I also told him that I would not tolerate being spoken to like I was by his darling (NOT) wife as she was NOT MY BOSS and also that he needs to look at the common denominator between him and the amount of staff he has gone thru ie. HIM. And I told him I would not be spoken to like carp.
    So, then I hung up on him and left.

    whew
