Hey guys - you all sound upbeat PRAISE THE LORD!!

Feeling quite the opposite - putting it down to pg and tiredness. Fed up with unrelenting work pressure, we currently have 4 people doing 6 peoples work, and 1 of those is on hols so 3 people doing the work of 6!! With no end in sight coz we can't recruit to our vacant post. AND my stupid work computer has died, so not only have I got stupid amounts of stupid work to do I can't access my stupid email, or stupid electronic calendar.

Deep breath. And relax......

I am praying that we can think of an alternative to our vacancy problem, preferably before my head explodes.

CaptainCaveman · 30/01/2008 21:40

want a job?

CaptainDippy · 30/01/2008 22:28

{{{{{CC}}}}}} Hope tomorrow is a bouncey-er day for you honey. xx

Congratulations!!! - To DH, BM God is good! xx Praying for everything to come right in the end, I am sure it will you know! xxxx

Glad your chest is feeling better, Rosey. xx

I am shattered, night all. xx

Huge congrats to your DH bobsmum - well done Mr Bobsmum!! PRAISE GOD for He provides.

I prayed all my concerns re work over to God last night, and I have great faith that He WILL provide an answer.

Please continue to pray for my friend who is now 3 days overdue and very fed up!

Also, there are 4 ladies on my ante-natal thread who have scans today and are experiencing perfectly normal pre-scan worries. Please could you pray for them?

CaptainCaveman · 31/01/2008 08:11

IlanaK, hardygirl, lcy and fogleg are the 4 ladies I mentioned

CaptainCaveman · 31/01/2008 08:13

oooh want to see my house!!!!!

MaryBS · 31/01/2008 08:21

It looks lovely CCM, praying you get a sale soon! Praying for all those with pregnancy worries...

My work is a bit stressful atm also, and will only get more so, as we get closer to YE. Praying that all of us there will be able to cope with the pressures, and come through the other side unscathed!

ZipadiSuzy · 31/01/2008 09:35

cc - how dare you have such a tidy house

CaptainDippy · 31/01/2008 10:11

Just waiting for house to load up before I comment CC - Computer is sooooooo slow atm. Sigh. Praying for IlanaK, hardygirl, lcy and fogleg with their scans today; and for your poor over-due friend too - I do 4 days over very well (DD's 1 & 3 were both 4 days over-due) ..... Glad you feel calm about the work situ - Praying for your work situ, Mary. xx

What a lovely house CC!

Flying by. God bless all.

Swaliswan · 31/01/2008 12:45

CC - the house is gorgeous. How about, I have the job and buy the house?

Could you all pray for DD please? I'm not sure what is wrong but she has gone off her food and has a temperature. I've given her some calpol and have put her down for her nap. Hopefully she'll wake up feeling better. She was fine at clinic this morning. Oh, and thank-you Lord that someone is going to come and see us from the Health visiting team about DD's sleep/nocturnal antics. Please Lord, show us what we are doing wrong and let us have a good night!

Oh, and thank-you Lord for the fantastic sparkly new washing machine. It is working brilliantly and I can't believe we got such a good machine for the price we paid. Thank-you for providing Lord!

CaptainDippy · 31/01/2008 14:14

Hope she is a lot brighter after her nap, SS! [smlie] Yey for your new washing machine!!

OP posts:
CaptainDippy · 31/01/2008 14:15

That should be!

Still can't load up the page with your house on CC!!

OP posts:
Swaliswan · 31/01/2008 14:40

DD is brighter after her nap, but her temperature is higher. I'm hoping that the rash that is developing on her face is because she is teething

DutchOma · 31/01/2008 14:43

Don't leave it too long sweetheart. It might be nothing, but then she is only little.
Praying for you.

Swaliswan · 31/01/2008 14:48

DD is brighter after her nap, but her temperature is higher. I'm hoping that the rash that is developing on her face is because she is teething

Swaliswan · 31/01/2008 14:49

Sorry, DD managed to hit the back button and the post message button all by herself! Not bad for 8mo!

DutchOma · 31/01/2008 15:08

Clever girl. My dd phones NHS direct when she is worried, then she has some backup with the dr, health visitor A&E etc.
Sort of: "Well I wasn't that worried suffering from PFB syndrome but NHS direct told me to take her."

Swaliswan · 31/01/2008 15:19

I've always found that NHS Direct refuse to talk about a baby - just incase. They always refer me to a doctor. DD's temp is coming down nicely now so I think that I'll use a watchful waiting approach. I can't believe that she has just turned her nose up at a rusk.

If anyone has time for any more prayers, could you send a quick one up about the fact that I'm waiting for work to phone me back. The Sister has gone to speak to senior management about the ward's poor staffing levels and is going to phone me on her return. Goodness knows what sort of mood she'll be in. I hope that she has some news for me about my redeployment even if it is only that HR are now dealing with the request.

CaptainDippy · 31/01/2008 15:23

Am paying SS. xx Hope DD's temp continues to decrease - think the "watchful, cautious" approach is often best - Trust your instincts. Very impressed with her computer skills though!!

Finally managed to get the page with yourh osue open, CC - Looks lovely Houses are soooo much cheaper up ther than down here - That house would easily be selling for £190,000 here! Looks immaculate - most impressed, young lady!

OP posts:
DutchOma · 31/01/2008 15:24

Adding prayers for your work situation. And for the poor Ward Sister who is probably run ragged that she can put her cares into the hands of the Lord.

CaptainDippy · 31/01/2008 15:25

Hi DO!! How are you and your DH? xx

DutchOma · 31/01/2008 15:43

We're ok, thanks Dippy.
