Homesick this weekend I had intended to come up for a quick visit and see some friends this weekend but work managed to shoot that completely in the foot.
Almost had a new flatmate last week which would have been fun as they appeared to be a normal person for a change. Pretty much had my fill of crazy for this year but they changed their minds. Thought I might have an easier time of getting people to live here if I didn't have on room exclusively held for the kids. But I pretty much reject that idea out of hand as thats my loved ones space and its staying right where it is.
Been browsing the vacant positions a lot lately really want to speed my timetable up but coming back to lesser pay or worse to no job at all would pretty much make a mockery of the last two years and everything I've had to sacrifice as a result.
Rambling I know but I need to vent a little, friend of mine at work told me last week her fiancee had decided we couldn't be friends anymore and she was going along with it. I think I blew my top at her a little which is the wrong thing to do I know, but why the hell would anyone want to start setting themselves up to be an abused wife is completely beyond me... or maybe I have more respect for myself.
Ok I'm done

Yes, yes, give into your anger, strike him down...
People are stupid and this includes you and I. They do stupid things.
We learn from our mistakes and the mistakes of others so if it's of any use, be very careful of taking pay cuts for love.
Also, as I tried to explain to DG once (and fucking over and over and over), we can't save everyone so we must choose how we spend that energy and who we save.
That may appear quite harsh so consider this. If you could save three people who saved three people each, even after only three generations of focus, attention and mentoring, isn't that better than trying to save twenty people initially and failing because you spread yourself too thin?
I know people will argue this. It's not for everybody. It works for me.

No I get that and I have been trying to remember you can't help people who don't want to help themselves
