Had two pieces of much needed good news in the last week.
First, after a long-drawn-out application process I had an interview at my lovely work for a FT, permanent position (currently a PT apprentice). Next day I was told I got one of the contracts.
Two days later DH had his ESA appeal. He got a prolapsed disc over 18m ago, and after less than a year he was rejected, so we knew if he lost the appeal we would have to pay over 6 months worth of money (which we've been using to live on) back. But he won - common sense was finally used, the hearing took virtually no time at all.
So, why after these two brilliant pieces of news do I feel so sad? Crying at the drop of a hat, snapping at DH and DCs. DH is similarly grumpy as the pain is bad. All the stuff we didn't get done before this week is piling up - behind on studies, housework etc. Just can't seem to get on with stuff. Panicking about how we will cope if I go FT (thread here - sorry for shameless plug but I could do with more replies! )
I would really love to enjoy this time but I don't seem able to. I just feel overwhelmed.
