Re: not coping

I didn't realise that you would keep your old job too @outlander You will certainly be busy hon, but hopefully it can set you up for the future.

Re: not coping

the other job im applying for doesnt really have that much work @Snowie but sort of need some start up staff for the small amount of clients they have so itll only been a couple of hours anyway but as they gain more and more clients and stuff like that i can sort of transition more to that company but when pop goes into care i can work both jobs anyway. nothing wrong with working a couple of doubles esp when theres a lot of financial changes happening and trying to get settled etc

Re: not coping

Very true @Snowie
My new therapist finds me intriguing though I don’t know if that’s a good or a bad thing yet!

Re: not coping

@outlander I'm going to log off soon.

I don't think being on here is the right place for now. Too much happening inside my head.

Thanks for the company today. It has meant the world to me.
