So hey, wassup Karen? Well..... I was in a really bad place. - TopicsExpress

So hey, wassup Karen? Well..... I was in a really bad place. On big meds and not ready to update my resume or even start to look for another contract. And I couldnt face my referees. I couldnt face anyone. Then maybe 2 weeks ago on a Monday late afternoon a guy I worked with 3? 4? years ago rang and asked if a guy he works with could ring me. I said ok and he asked to meet next morning - hes a job recruiter. So I dutifully found some old work clothes and headed off. 3 hrs later I was at the client site being chatted to about a contract. Next day was Wednesday when i saw my psychiatrist. He said it would good for me to get back into it and upped my meds immediately. The next day thurs I was on client site working. Fri was an offsite workshop for an entire team where I was dumped right into it and since then I have had to hit the ground running. Literally. I worked til 12:30am yesterday morn, 11:30pm on thurs and tues. The last 2? Weeks are just a big blur. So to put it bluntly my head is absolutely reeling. No resume. No referee check. No need for me to go through soul searching. The meds are working. Im completely knackered but we have money coming into the family. So to everyone who has had kind thoughts about us I cannot express my thanks and gratitude enough. Because without you, my beautiful loving friends, I wojld not be writing this enormous tear-ridden thank you. I just hope I can keep the job. Took me til 2 days ago to sign the contract.... But I find that at work I can be fundamentally different to me. So Im still completely nuts, but so far at work people havent cared about it and just found me refreshingly different. Thanks again all. You have made my life have some light in it. 💜💜💜💜💜
