To stay in my pj's

I have recently been made redundant and despite over 100 job applications I have heard nothing positive yet. That teamed with raging PMT (and painful PCOS), a bent Xmas tree that I'm not allowed to decorate until grumpy DP comes home to "fix" it after work and a living room that looks like a badly organized charity shop at the moment. Oh and the washing up needs doing and DSS's Xmas presents need wrapping.

Would IBU just to sod it all and stay in my PJ's all day and cry a bit?

YANBU - shut the door and start again tomorrow. Before XMas is not a good time for job hunting either so try not to be too despondent. I would have a cup of tea and wrap the presents (that's the most fun bit of your list)

I would point out though a woman in Leeds has just started a campiagn against people shopping in their pyjamas Confused, so watch out if you were thinking of leaving the house in them.

Thumbs up for staying in your pyjamas.

As soon as I get home they go on in my house.

Don't be dispondent regarding the job market. I'm due to be made redundant at the end of the year. I've decided to relax, enjoy Christmas and start hunting in the New Year.

Hugs and hope to you. Cuddle up in your PJs and give yourself permission to just look after yourself. For today, sod it all.

Something will turn up. But everyone is right - for now - relax.

Bent Christmas tree? You should see ours! Bent at the top with one very very long branch, then bald in the middle. It looks like a filthy green old man trying to grab the ladies.

Def stay in your pjs, eat all the chocolate you can find and wash down with copious amounts of tea. Pj days can be very very good for you indeed! Give yourself permission to have a day off, we all need one once in a while. Good luck with the beastly job hunt.

Yes stay in your pjs, there should be some decent old films on tv. I think lots of chocolate might help you feel better.

YANBU, and I hope next year is a better year for you!
