Work topic - feeling bad as mind isn't on it

8 replies

Newmummytobe79 · 04/02/2011 11:00

Hello,

As you've probably guessed by the amount of posts I've put on today - I can't get my head into my work today.

I feel really bad googling stuff and posting on here but I can't talk to anyone at work (they don't know yet) and I've been sat at my desk since 7.45am and I'm bored!

Anyone else being naughty in work and feeling bad! Please tell me I won't feel this way until maternity and I'll get my mojo back!

You will - but having a baby is pretty high on the list of priorities. Work is just work. Having babies is life! I too am not in the mood for work. Not helped by the fact that I'm waiting for a management e-mail about redundancy - should be coming sometime today - so can't really concentrate anyway

Oh no! I hope you're ok - or if you do want reundancy you get a super big fat pay out!

Fingers crossed it goes well for you x

I know! I wish I could just get up from my desk and drive home!

Hey ho - we're nearly half way through the day and it's Friday so we can sink a bottle of wine tonight like everyone else ... oh no ... I forgot ... we can't even do that! hehehe x

Working From Home today. Kind of makes it harder to get motivated! I will enjoy my bottle of Cobra Zero tonight - tastes like beer but no alcohol :-)

Me miss!

I've been so grumpy today as well, I keep making sarcastic comments but can't seem to stop myself. Someone asked me for help with something (am technical sort of person) and I told them to google it! Oops

My colleagues are so lucky to have me

Totally LOLin at Serenajoy "making sarcastic comments"- that was soooooooo me during my first pregnancy when i worked full time.

Its as if we think we have the god given right to just say what we want when pregnant- I just absolutely love it !!!

I agree with the whole "cant get into the working frame of mind", espcially during a first pregnancy, as all you can think of is the the baby, what it will be like, and getting home to have plenty of Zzzzzzzz.

I am pregnant for the 2nd time - my first child is 2. Luckily i got redundancy last year - and it was a good package (that has been mainly spend on shoes, perfume and other non essential items But i am enjoying not having to try and stay awake in work or appear "interested" during meetings etc.

My days currently consist of Mr Tumble, Mighty Mites, Cat and a Hat dvd over and over again, going to soft play and potty training - but wouldnt change it for the world. Although could MURDER a or 10.

xxxxxxxxxx
