Stressing the stresshead


Hello lovelies,

 You know when you just have one of THOSE days? yup that's me! Trying my best not to pull my hair out right now! Things always have to happen all at once. Why things? Why? Why do you do this things? Stop it!

So parents evening, the short and long of it is this. DD's teacher doesn't seem to believe dyspraxia is a real thing. She didn't say as much but her tone said it all. Apparently DD is going to fail her SAT's due to her handwriting... I would like to point out she is also left handed and for some unknown bloody reason the school make the kids write in cursive (Joined up writing not writing a load of curse words on the paper!). I for one think if a child is struggling to write they should not be encouraged to write in a style that makes their writing even more illegible, but i'm not the governing body...

I don't like that teacher just saying.

I still cannot get through to those lovely people at UC, I think its because before they answer my call they are trying to think of the best way possible to help me, because why else would they NEVER answer the phone at all?

I was also presented with the news today that I need to find around £1500 in 2-3 weeks in order to keep the flat... well i'm sure if DD and myself don't eat and I don't pay any of my other bills i'll be able to do about 2/3 of that! Hello water my old friend and soon to be best nutrient in my diet. I tried calling CAB but I think they have spoken to UC because I was on hold for 30 mins and then was cut off. Again these people must REALLY want the best for me if they are not answering my calls.


And lastly to end my moaning and groaning. This whole storm Callum thing? Well guess who has to go out and work in it and walk around in it until 10 pm tonight for work? Yep this idiot here! Apparently that's a thing in that line of work. Having to spend hours in the cold and dark and trying not to get blown into the roads and die... i'm sure HSE would have something to say about that surely? Oh well life really sucks sometimes. Callum go home you are drunk come back when I dont have to walk in your stroppy wind tantrums!

Oh well best go and prepare myself, wish me luck!

Changes

Ok so Been really busy recently due to working two jobs but November is going to mark a new beginning. He's leaving. Yes I'm upset but things happen and I can't change it. However it means I will have to let go of my 2nd job and try and contact those lovely people at UC.... But then I have so much to look forward to! Halloween, bonfire night, carnival. I do love this time of year. Funds are going to get so much tighter due to the upcoming Christmas holidays but I'm not going to let it hold me back. Also it means when I leave my house after cleaning it, it will be clean when I return! Unless of course the cats resume having wild catnip filled parties whilst I'm out! Here's to change!

Rantings of a stressed working mum

Hi there, I'm sat here in what only I can describe as a bombsite. I have just dropped DD at school and have come back as quickly as possible to feed my caffeine habit. Normally I would be at work right now but my little darlings have exams this morning so I have a free morning YAY!  So maybe I should back up a little here. This morning whilst having my 1st caffeine hit of the day and a cigarette (there's my 1st bad mum point right there) I had about 1000 things going through my head and I had no way of sorting them into some kind of understandable order. I was getting a headache and pretty sure a panic attack was on its way, but I didn't have time for that as I had a packed lunch to make and a child to remind we had to leave in 15 mins. (Again I know I should have made the lunchbox up last night ssshhhh). So on the way home I was trying to figure out how I was going to figure out what to do. Then it hit me... write it down! Even better let others see it too! That way...

The new doctor

It's been a while I know. Tonight I watched the season premiere of Thirteen. I loved it. Not because it was the 1st female doctor, but because of something close to my heart. One of the characters, Ryan. We are told from the start Ryan who I am assuming is in his early 20s cannot ride a bike without stabilisers due to being dyspraxic. THANK YOU BBC for addressing this. My DD is dyspraxic, when I tell people this they automatically assume she's dyslexic or something else. She is not. Academically she is really good, although some dyspraxic children do suffer with dyslexia etc. My DD luckily does not. However she does have a habit of figgiting a lot due to it, and getting told off for such behaviour because her teacher doesn't know/ understand dyspraxica. She also sucks at sport. It's a coordination issue she can't help it. She also processes information a bit differently to others her age and can also be quite literal. However her teacher this year (final year in...
