Have A Good Old Moan....

Worried my dad will say no to us boarding a guide dog, I really need something to do and to look forward to right now. :/

Also being put on a new antipsychotic just as I thought I was off them for good, and it's going to make me put on loads of weight. Don't know if I can handle it.

Rat sitting turned into a nightmare. They forgot to tell us until last minute that the rats can and will escape from the cage. Cue panic. Had an awful anxiety attack over it. Was stranded with the rats as the owners were off to the airport. Managed to buy some wire mesh and cover the cageto rat-proof it, but it took hours to do. Never pet sitting again  T^T

I've had my kidney transplant for over 12 years, and my creatinine level has stayed around 1.2 (the high end of the "normal" range) the entire time. Just had bloodwork done today with a new doctor, and my creatinine is 8! It's a huge jump that makes no sense to me, and I have to go back in on Monday. I'm scared. There are no good alternatives to living with a kidney transplant.

And the doctor wants me to really push salty food until then. I don't see how bloating myself will help...

I want good news. Pink hair. Dancing all night.

It's been quiet on here this weekend... this makes me sad because I've been online and bored for most of it so far 😛

^ sums up my life

If there's one thing I can recommend... Don't pack a house up and move when you're both ill. I can't find half my clothes, a load of small boxes and a small printer I use for address labels. No idea what the hell has happened, but seeing as I managed to forget to label most boxes, that's probably it!

Also, the server we have at home and I have all my photos on it. It appears to have died. I have back ups on my PC but that seems to have died too! I'm up poop creek without a paddle if we can't get the data off the drives. Now probably have to buy yet another new PC so I can't get the amazingly cool embroidery machine unless I lease it. Though that might not be so bad.

Still not finished unpacking yet as neither of us are really well yet. I've got to get back to work though.

Got diagnosed with severe depression and anxiety today...not sure how i feel about it tbh...

I could actually be in Thailand right now.
D:
The company incentive last year was for like 50+ associates, managers, head office staff and for a full shop team to win a week long all expenses paid trip to Thailand, business class, to watch the Grand Prix with tickets for seats over the finish line...we nearly won too :(:(:(:(:(
PLUS I would have had a chance to see my best mate on his bday who is living there 🙁

Blood pressure of 166/112. Suffice it to say this is not a good thing. Further investigations pending 🙁

Fed up with being treated like I'm stupid at work. Seriously getting me down....just because I'm not a teacher does NOT mean I am incapable. 🙁

Are you a TA? I've heard teaching is really bad for snobbery - a friend of mine did TeachFirst and got loads of abuse, they assumed she wasn't capable of classroom management because she got a first (I'm sure many schools aren't like this of course but I looked into trying to teach in the state sector and it was all no bueno because my background was in academia...).

When I did my teaching degree there was only one teacher who was a complete bitch and the TA spent most of the time complaining about her 😛 I know if I was ever to do teaching (I did the course but I don't wanna!) that I would never look down on anyone... working with kids is hard no matter what you do! I work with one kid as a nanny and even that is a mission sometimes!

Hopefully it will get better 🙂

Yep I am a TA. It's driving me mad! That's the thing..it's not condusive to anyone. It makes me feel nervous and hence mess up more than I otherwise would and just makes me not want to help her as much as I could because she acts like I'm an idiot! Bleh. I'm glad I'm only there for a few more months! Roll on the beginning of July...off to Thailand for 3 weeks to teach English and do touristy stuff!

In these scenarios I usually content myself with the thought that there are always going to be people who think they're better than you. This is only possible because the people who are better than them - and there will be many - are dignified enough not to care and not to rub it in their faces.  So really, all it shows is that she's too silly to realise that she ain't all that :p

gosh why do people ask your advice and then do the complete opposite?

Good bloody question! Wish I knew the answer lol!!
