We find ourselves here again, this week has flown by, can you believe next month is December!
My week has been full on at work, Wednesday was a long day, was in work at 4am and finished at 18;30! My manager was on holiday this week and we had several locations of managers down for a overall performance of our service and targets, our most senior MD was also there, it was my first time attending this level of meeting so was a tad bit apprehensive, each manager had an hour meeting, with both the MD and Senior Manager and mine was the last one of the day at 15;30, it went really well, the conversations just flowed, no awkward silence lol, the last thing I wanted to do was let my boss down but the feedback I got in our group meeting today was really positive, he said how the MD was impressed with my knowledge and understanding of out financial targets, and when he was talking to some of our employees he could tell how highly I was thought of here so for me to hear that just made my day, no matter how hard this journey is it is amazing to know people see me for me , a good end to a working week xx
Spoke to HC, he is doing ok still revising and enjoying it , no visit this weekend however I do have the furbaby so a few fresh walks ahead for the weekend
I have pratteled on a bit but just wanted to share my week at work lol
I hope you all have something nice planned for the weekend
Love sent as always xx

Upset, that's such lovely feedback from your MD and colleagues and I'm sure its very well deserved.
Today I've focused on some self care and treated myself to a massage. I've had a busy week so it was good to take some time out for myself.
This evening my daughter, partner and children are coming round with a couple of friends for a games and pizza evening which will be fun.
We are now 3 years since my sons arrest and 1 year post sentencing and in this moment life is settled and calm. It might not stay that way but I'm managing more now than ever before to take one day at a time and enjoy the good times.

Hi ladies.
Work sounds like a distant memory on mat leave! I've got nappies and leaky breasts in my life instead, and lots of baby classes to keep me busy and sane.
Hope you all have a great weekend/week ahead.

Hello All
What fantastic feedback Upset, it's so important that work life is going well when personal life is difficult at times.
Week has gone quick when I wanted it to go slow as Monday coming is sentencing day! Was fully expecting it to be cancelled again but checked the court listing and it's going ahead. Not sure how I feel, calm because at last we get the outcome and can try and rebuild our life. But stressed as thinking what the sentence could be and will it be in the media.
Going to try and relax and do something nice.
Take Care all and hope you all find a little bit of peace.

Upset-mum - sounds like a really positive week at work!
We were away last week - had a lovely time, with only one teenage meltdown!
Back at work this week and it's been hectic - parent meet and greets, trying to work out the class lists for January, an annual government survey that I need to complete for the head! I'm frazzled!
Had a visit with our son on Sunday. I honestly don't think I've had a hug like that from him since he was a little boy (only our second visit - the first one was a closed visit as we were late, due to not knowing how it works)
This weekend I'm being taxi mum for other children - they've got better social lives than we do!

Well done Upset, you did really well and am proud of you girlie. Certainly a mammoth week for you, time to chill out a little now.
As for me - my son starts his treatment course on Monday, been a long time coming but I feel completing it all be a massive step forward for him as he thunders on towards application for parole. He's seeing some light now, at long last.
All ok on the homefront - but my - when are we going to see weather,

Just one teenage meltdown lucky you lol x

I can just imagine how much been able to hug him means, you just never want to let go do you x
However as difficult as it is he is ok, and will be, he will adjust as well as you will xx

Hello Friday Check in,
Upset - so nice to hear you are doing well at work and feeling recognized.
Ocean - pizza and games with family sounds perfect. It's the little things now.
Flower - enjoy your mat leave and your little one. I remember those days fondly.
Lonely & Bewildered - I will be thinking of you as and your person Monday. My husband is being sentenced Friday so your feelings really resonated with me.
Devastated - how nice to get a big hug from your son.
Smile - I'm glad your son is seeing the light and receiving some treatment.
It's been another week for me and my little family. Today my husband and I met with his lawyer to discuss next Fridays sentencing and what to expect. My kids have had more questions and we have had some hard but honest talks. I am both angry at my husband and proud of the work he's put in. I am exhausted all the time, no matter how much I sleep. I am terrified for this next phase but ready to move forward. Monday is rememberable day in Canada and I have the day off work. I will be reflecting on grandparents who fought in WW2 and giving thanks to the men and women who keep me free and safe.

We will also be with you by your side xx
Monday is the same in the uk, remembering those who gave so much xx
To be proud of how much he has worked on himself dosent mean you condone his actions yet he deserves to know how proud of him you are xx
