A new start (kind of)

Re: A new start (kind of)

Lol indeed @Zoe7 that we both can do

So is it all done for term 1 now?

Re: A new start (kind of)

All done with kids @MDT but we have a moderation day tomoorw where we work with teachers from a few other different schools. I wasn't put into any group until after school today - they forgot about me lol The funny thing is that I didn't feel like I had been left out and therefore didn't matter - I just saw it as an oversight because I wasn't actually on just one class - that in itself is a shift in my thinking and actually makes me feel good about myself Smiley Very Happy

Take care @MDT  

hope you feel better soon. xx

Re: A new start (kind of)

hello @MDT you're doing great-guns. and you're a silly sausage not to see it - I love how much you have succeeded in the past few weeks, networking and presenting and working, it's amazing stuff and even though you feel poorly atm with the flu or whatever, we know how well you're doing, us old folks. let us know how you go with your presentation.

 

hi @Zoe7 , you're such a thoughtful person, thankyou for your thoughts on my bro. I ended up drafting an email but not sending it. It's a strategy to contain the emotion/rege. I do a draft and then wait as many days as I can beofre reviewing it and as a last step acutally send it. You're doing awesome as a teacher and they are lucky to have you, I hope Friday goes smoothly as you should be nothing but an asset floating thru all the other teachers' classes.

 

hi @TAB I can't believe you're a mine worker, that must be so extreme. What a lot to deal with, and the there are the personalities. I hope you are ok today? I always clash with this person or that manager at work, it is a minefield, so I hope you're going ok. I am self-medicating with beer on a daily basis - my physical pain and psychic pain (quoting Bowie here) is just too raw for me to do otherwise - I worry about my liver but want relief more. geez it's a hard state to be in, can't imagine how hard it is to put in a day's work mining in high heat. thinking of you & sending you good vibes.

Re: A new start (kind of)

Presentation done. Didn't do too badly I thought.
Had a bit of social with them after. That was good.
A bit of charity stuff too.
Small steps I guess hey.
Home to chill now. But not too much late TV or else I can feel worse

Re: A new start (kind of)

sounds like you had a great night @MDT well done.

 

I'm having a slow day today, got a Meetup tonight that I'm gonna force myself to go to as I promised myself I would go & meet new people (cancelled the last 2). what are you up to today?

Re: A new start (kind of)

hi @Sam3 how is work & your family going?

Re: A new start (kind of)

just watching some interviews and podcasts @BryanaCamp

Expecting my sister back at the train soon so will go and get here. I cancelled dinner plans because I'm too exhausted to travel.

I also need to wait and think about a role advertised to me through that recruiter. I did my degree though, and both my parents think an admin role would be an undersell which I agree with them on.

Hopefully I can twist the recruiters arm to suit things that are more in line with my experience etc. But anyway. That's a mountain I can leave until next week or at least for today.

Right now I need to unplug from all the stuff around me. Been a hectic week actually.
