An interesting day today, kinda up and down, a real mishmash of emotions running hot and cold... making focussing at work almost impossible. Plus Claire's away so I'm doing her job as well as mine as well as answering the *bleeping* phones all by myself. Although Stan helped happily today.. seems he's dropped his tantrummy attitude and settled into genuine helping mode. Well today he was anyway. Very nice. I've been asking him about gardening, getting hints and tips, and he's actually quite resourceful and knowledgeable. And to add insult to injury the computers are playing up yet again. 

At the moment I'm peeeeed off at Barb about the support group I'm trying to get off the ground, because she's turned all official on me again and has laid down the law about who I can introduce myself to and not. I feel like telling her to shove it, like Mel did, but that means I can't help those people out there who need my ear and life learnings. *deepbreathkeepbreathingcalmandcentredgroundedandatpeace*

I'm sewing in between posting. I am soooooooo glad I have my own room in the house for just me. Michael won't cross the threshold unless he's invited (yes he's in his Martian Cave, full security engaged) so that's giving me even more happiness hehehe

I was thinking a lot today bout how hard it must be to work full time and still get things done and have time for yourself. I dont think I could handle having to deal with people causing me stress everyday. You do have a lot to give to people so stay calm and focused and even those against you will be blessed in some way by your influence. At least thats what I tell myself when I'm in the middle of being told my morals are too high or my ideals are ridiculous.

Yes it is hard, but it's all I've known and so it's not that much of an issue. The hardest part was going from part-time to full-time - having those 2 days off per week were bliss. Now I have my 9 day fortnight, it's a small blessing.

Whoever has the cheek to tell you your morals are too high or your ideals are ridiculous has no right to cast such judgement. Sounds like jealousy to me. I read just last night that a lot of the times unjust criticism is a disguised compliment. I think that is a good example.

That could be true. See how this sounds to you... I had the possible chance to go overseas accompanying the golfer to a tournament but it meant deceiving sponsors to have the extra money needed. I simply said it was wrong but got accused of too high morals and just not wanting to go at all.
Its not always easy staying true to yourself and I sure dont uphold everything I believe all the time but when it hits me so strongly I know its my conscience/spirit/whatever, whoever you believe, speaking.
