I realise that I need to stop beating myself up and seeing recent events as a failure. I realise I stood up for myself and what was right - warrior Cath on the march!
Feeling shattered physically and mentally after having to leave the job I only just got because of a bullying boss.
October was the anniversary of my Mum's death, my late father's birthday and to top it all a dear lady, who took us in when we were homeless, died last week. :( A bad month but...
@KP the nut You are absolutely right :tup: :hug:
@Pottershand Thank you PH, much apreciated :hug:
H took me and my eldest to a local Forest today. The sun was shining and although a little cold it felt good to be out in the fresh air. My son and I foraged for sweet chestnuts which we will...
@Sazza Thanks hun, your words mean a great deal to me.
@KP the nut Your phone call helped me to put things into perspective. I spotted the unhealthy environment and thought it would improve - it didn't. I am still struggling with the disappointment because I was so looking forward to what...
Thanks so much PH and all x
I have worked hard to get to this point in my healing and absolutely refuse to compromise myself. They want people to be whipping boys and by saying that I must 'pretend' to work is saying that they want me to be a sycophant! I absolutely refuse which makes me the...
@Nighthawk Thanks sweetie, this is the first time I have put myself first. I have missed doing my art because I have been wound like a spring and unable to concentrate.
I am going to concentrate on my art and medieval fairs where I can be my own boss and enjoy myself - no tears here so at...
@Anrish @Nighthawk @roaminggnome @rainy_daze
Thank you all so much for your kind replies :hug:'s to you all. I truly am grateful for your support in this.
Well I have cried for 3 days solid on and off and have not slept for that time either. I chatted to my sister yesterday who has worked...
I have now almost done my second week.
The induction went well but the shop had no lighting and the internal fixtures and fittings were still being done. We were made to fit shelves and put out stock wearing hard hats (too big), high visibility jackets ( also too big) and safety shoes (also...
Thanks so much Nicolette. :hug:
I have my induction day tomorrow, i will be nervous but I am not panicking and hope I don't. i will be in 9:30 until 5:30 Tuesday and then 8am until 6pm on Thursday. We are soft opening on Thursday so it will be all hands on deck. I have no idea what is...
@Sarah542 @Britt.f7
Thanks so much ladies I will let you all know on the day. I do not want to let myself or others down and I think that is my biggest fear.
Hi PH, so glad you have gone back to counselling. I used to be such a sycophant, always trying to please even if I got hurt. My therapist told me that once I started to change I would begin to attract a different type of person - he was so right!
Now that I am more positive, have started to...
Thanks so much for your kind words wonderful people. :inlove:
Here what is happening now:
On Tuesday 21st October I have my induction day - 9am until 6pm! Then I am in on Thursday 23rd 8am until 6pm! I am supposed to be doing 16 hours over 5 days so I hope the 8-6 isn't going to be a regular...
Thanks so much NH, I guess we can't overcome our fears until we face them. It is terrifying but it is something I know I have to do, :hug:
Thanks Nicolette :hug:
I got a phone call from the boss yesterday and the good news is that I got the job!!!!!!!:D:tup:
We will be having an induction...
@KP the nut Thank you so much for all your love and support and for believing in me - it truly means the world to me.

@Sarah542 Thank you for posting, I will let you...
I'm back and I think it went well.
There were 2 other ladies (both young), one had retail experience and one was a watercolour artist. Neither had crafting experience but they were really nice and we were interviewed together. We all gave similar answers to the questions and the guy...
