Something’s not right

Not Coping

Not Coping

Hey everyone how are you all?

@RiverSeal @Shaz51 @NatureLover @tyme @Former-Member @Eve7 @Former-Member @amber22 @Jynx @FloatingFeather

I'm not doing great at all today. I'm feeling down. I also keep beating myself up for everything and feel like I'm just failing. I need a break from everything. It's getting so hard that I don't know how to keep going anymore especially since I can't talk to anyone around me as they are leaving me or don't understand.

Hope you don’t mind me reaching out I just really need a chat and though I could come on here and vent and talk for a bit.

Thank you

Re: Not Coping

I applied for a whole heap and three more I've found. I have an interview next week.

I don't know when she is coming back. She didn't say much. The other one might be moving in this Saturday Sunday but I'm unsure @ENKELI

How many have you been apply for?

Doesn't help my centerlink got stopped because my parents earn too much. I at least got the low income health care card so that's always good.

Re: Not Coping

Hi @Birdofparadise8 . I had a heap of reconstructive surgery for burns mate. New ear, back and neck and and my arm was given complete mobility. Had a heart attack n strokes in the process so was in a comma for a month or so. It was all stuff that should have been done years ago but did not have the money till now. So now I look in the mirror and the outside looks tip top. A great outcome, with a few hiccups on the way.

What are you reading @Birdofparadise8 .. I wish I could read. I get through a letter or a few pages of a book, and I drift off. But my friend reads to me now and then. I close my eyes and let the luxury wash over me. Its one of life's great joys. Do you have a favourite book.. tonys

Re: Not Coping

@Birdofparadise8 I've applied for about 20 in the past month. A lot of competition with school leavers, especially since they don't have to pay adult wage.

I hate how centrelink works like that. It happened to me when I went to WAAPA (WA Academy of Performing Arts) to study and my mum earned too much. It's total and utter BS.

I just keep applying and hoping something comes up. I was given one job but then the person who was leaving decided to stay.

Yeah the healthcare card helps a lot for meds and transport. I hope something comes up for you soon x

I've just started the Paradise Clube series (Paradise Book One) by J A Low.

Oh, okay, I'm sorry you've had to go through that. I hope things are starting to get better for you. @tonys

Yeah, that's true, @ENKELI I'm sure we will find something soon.

What are you both doing today?

Re: Not Coping

Thankyou @Birdofparadise8 Sounds worse than it was. I have a handful of incredible people

that work for me so if I ever feel sorry for myself, I need a good slap.

Paradise serries hey. sounds intriguing. You'll immerse and escape, the joy of books hey.

I'm a movie tragic. What would we do without the arts. Well I hope you have a peaceful day.

It's been good so far. I'm trying to get into reading, and romance is so good. I love the spice, hahaha.

Movies are good, too.

I'm sitting on the couch debating whether I will wash up or not and get dressed.

I would like to go to the gym as well.

@tonys will you do anything today or do you have to stay in bed?

In response to: Re: Not Coping

Re: Not Coping

Re: Not Coping

You had love in your childhood and some heart ache too. @ENKELI . What I like most is your mum

reading out those words and instilling her values , hopes, and dreams into you.

Never had family back then, but it found me at the other end of my life. I'll take my wins anywhere I can get them.

I was thinking how much you remind me of my book keeper. @ENKELI . Similar childhood. Speaks Austrian

Men short changed her badly, and the self esteem issues. She put an add in the paper as a part time, in home, English teacher. and thats how she first walked into my life.

When she is not around I let spell check dig me a deeper hole, and I'm always yelling out to someone

How do I spell this or what's that mean. I sold my business while in hospital, but shes coming with me.

I tell you all this because I think you have the heart and patience of a teacher.

There are lots of old and young alike, looking for that. Personal assistants. People that can cross

the tee's and dot the I's. Tend to the detail so I can focus on direction. I would be 'nothing' without her and a couple of others.

Maybe one day, give it a little thought. Its just an add in the paper. Take care @ENKELI tonys

Re: Not Coping

@tonys put all the things you have written about the Bookkeeper in a book. You have a bestseller.

The way you write about the Bookkeeper is the way every woman wants to be seen with respect, admiration, dignity and devotion.

@ENKELI if you speak more than one language, the world is your oyster.

I was working on a campaign 2017, one of the financial contributors was a Hemp farmer in Nanup. He was going to Germany to finalise a contract to a company that made industrial rope.

My grandson speaks Mandarin, my cousin speaks French.

Retail companies want people with a First Language other than English.

Lead with the tools you’ve got.

I have no I idea why I wrote this. Must have got the impression you were looking for a job?

Carry people I’m off to the Shed.
