What's been happening lately?...you ask.....
Well, I can start to see the workload easing off a little. Thank God! I am feel so so tied lately, but I suppose these late nights are not helping.
I made a giant leap yesterday, I finally went to see a counselor to talk through all of the happenings in our lives over the last 18 months, from Ian's heart attack in Jan 05, the liquidation of the Building Co and then the bankruptcy and fight to keep the house. I have this huge weight on my shoulders and with work pressures, it has just build up and up. Well, I was not what I expected and I came out there very disappointed. What a waist of my time. I think the counselor was way over his head with my "problems". Anyway, I had a chat to our OH&S Coordinator at work (these sessions are through work) and she suggest I call them back and ask to see a different counselor, which is exactly what I did. Another appointment next wednesday.
After all that, I just couldn't concentrate at work today. I managed to finish one of the projects before I left at 3pm today (Ian is working tonight so I needed to be home early). On arriving at my car this afternoon, I found a lovely yellow envelope on my windscreen, yep, $70.00 fine for not paying for parking. Not enough coins this morning, I wish these machines took notes, I have enough notes!!!!
Oh well, I said, Sh*t Happens. Then, while picking up Rachel from childcare, I received another fine. I thought I would only be a few minutes so didn't put coins in the meter. Well, Rachel needed a nappy change before we left and then she had to show me the Jelly Fish she made today etc. So another $70.00 fine, that's $140.00 in one day!!! Do you realise how much scrap stuff I could buy for that!!! We really cannot affort the first one, but two. Ian said he would draft me a letter to try to get off the second one, but the 1st is purely my fault, so we will have to pay that one.
I have been playing the games on my work computer through lunch over the last week or so and have rediscovered Minesweeper. Yes, that frustrating game where you need to work out were the mines are. Managed to win the two smaller size games, but the last is proving a bit of a challenge. Almost solved it the other day,..... almost!
Well cheers for now
