I dont want to be at work today, I have so little left to give to non family / friends and my job is all about giving to others... sometimes those that don't appreciate it... being bright and cheerful and listeing to them moan and bitch... what do I do?

Matt has his operation in a week so I have no reason not to go to work... He is at school for two exams today but wanted me to pick him up after first exam and take him back for second this afternoon... today is the first time I have said NO to him... and I am regretting it... I could take the day off as I am self employed on a contract so get paid for the days I have done.... part of me says to go and keep things real.... the other wants to be there at the end of the school drive for him,....

I am taking all of the week after his op and probably the week after as well off work to be there to look after him or just be around whilst he recuperates and watches dvds and facebooks everyone...

Give me strength to not tell someone to shut up and get on with life...

Loads of strength winging your way, Julia! I have a client that does nothing but moan, it's disgusting that we send invoices late, it's disgusting the we remind him to pay, it's disgusting, everything's disgusting. I feel like shouting, "no, what's disgusting is that I have had cancer and yet still I have to listen to you whinge and whine"... but of course, I don't.

Keep it normal for Matt, normal is good.

I'm sending you strength Jules. It's not easy at the best of times to remain bright and cheerful when faced with a moaner. With the added stress you have it must be near impossible. Grit your teeth for another week!

I hope Matt's op goes well next week, and his recovery is quick and easy.

Hi Julia,

You have alot of Love and caring in your heart, if people dont appreciate that,that is up to them.

You have a lot on your mind at this time. With Matt,s Operation next week and then the recovery time. You do what you you need to do for yourself and Matt. You are a good Mum and Matt knows that.

All the best to you both for next week and the weeks to follow. Hope all goes well.You both will be in my thoughts.

Take care and be safe.Big Hugs Love Sarsfield.xxx

we all feel this way, if it helps any, but, we smile and carry on regardless. I think it shows strength, you are better than them. Feel sorry for them, they with their petty whinges!
