Thank goodness it's friday
As I got up yelling to Grace we had over slept and to get a move on I thought thank goodness it's Friday I can't imagine surviving another day before we get to the weekend. I have found a tube of vitamin B tablets and am going to be taking them I think I need the energy today.Stress at work at the moment, complicated situation they are taking the security guards away so getting in and out of the building is changing and so far the suggestions are we all cut our hours so we can finish at a set time and someone can lock up or we all stop working evenings and do very early mornings instead. Neither of which suit me at all, one way I lose half my wages and the other I have to start work at 3am !
Stress at home as we try not to put any worries on Steven as he still seems so fragile, don't want to send him back into depression again. Money is an issue the idiots at the benefit office seem unable to read and have sent back our forms again without any explanation why we've done them wrong.
For some reason they are only paying half our rent they did say we'd get it all and started paying it then after 6 payments halved what they gave us.
I'm ringing council daily apologizing we haven't paid them, and they have been good but it's adding up. I'm looking at weekend jobs in the paper, might try and get a few more hours so we can bin the benefits but I am not sure I'm fit enough myself to do that. Will have to try it and see.
Sorry it's such a moany thread I know others have it worse than us we are lucky really. Just doesn't feel like that this morning.
Anyway got Grace to school on time, so that's a plus. Dogs were happy with their walk because it's not too wet for little one and enough puddles and mud to keep big one happy too. I'm drinking a lovely cup of coffee eating a lovely home baked oaty biscuit so not all bad in the world.

Julie, it sounds like you have most definitely earned your Saturday!I hope you can find a little corner of the world to treat yourself to a cup of tea or a nice uninterrupted bath. Your resilience is a fine thing.
Rhian, as much as I loved teaching (and I am still tutoring), I felt like it was my own cork that was popping on Friday afternoon! Have fun...and if you wouldn't mind scoot over and pour Julie and me a glass
