NERVES!
Lately I've been so stressed out between work and home. I have put in for two different positions at work, both of which are management positions. I've already had an interview for the first, and didn't have a "warm" fuzzy feeling about it! The hiring manager is one of those, that you can just never tell what he's thinking, which drives me nuts! The other position (the one I REALLY want!) is being held up by my supervisor. She's been dragging her feet on approving my self-nomination, which means that the hiring manager hasn't even seen my application yet! The cut off is this Friday, so I'm getting jittery waiting for her to approve it! It was mentioned this morning, but...I'm still waiting. I know she wants to see me move forward, but at the same time, it will put her in a predicament if I leave! I've been in this situation before and it sucks! Kind of like, you're damned if you do, and damned if you don't! If I don't work my butt off, I won't go anywhere...if I DO work my butt off, I get trapped in the position I'm in! We've run into some financial troubles lately (which I'm NOT used to! everything has just been paycheck to paycheck, but I've always been ok!), and if I can get one of these positions, it would help out tremendously!At home....we are getting so fed up with the messes that the kids are leaving behind! I used to pride myself on my clean house, but now it's all gone out the window! We have pretty much thrown in the towel, and just do the necessary things (ie, laundry, dishes and dinner), while the rest of the house goes to pot! It's just such an "icky" feeling to look around your home and be ashamed! We were cleaning when the kids were at our ex's house, but the minute they come back it looks like a tornado swept through! And it's not just one of them, but all 4 kids! We need to sit down and have a family talk, but there has been so much going on that we haven't had the chance. Meanwhile, it just gets worse! It wouldn't be so bad if everyone picked up after themselves! Arggggh! Sorry, seems to be my venting day. Doesn't happen very often, but I do have my moments!
