So tired.....

Comment Published at 03:3003:305 comments5 comments21 Visits21 VisitsReport

DH and I seem to have swapped roles - he has always been the insomniac, but lately it has been me and now I have hit the wall - I am exhausted.  It has been a long hot day and we have been out all day.  Tomorrow I have my first job interview in 9 years - for a one day a week (Saturday) job, which would be my first paid job in 4 1/2 years.  So I am nervous and tired and still have to get my clothes ready.  Yet my four year old insists that mummy comes to sleep with him as he can't sleep - what do you do?...

Re: So tired.....

well the interview has been postponed til tomorrow, so I've arranged to drop the kids at a friends for a couple of hours.  It is for a receptionist at a smallish hotel Saturday afternoon/evening and only about 15 mins from home, which is great.  It saves on childcare as hopefully DH is home (we'll see!) and it gives us a bit of extra income.  We just have to wait and see how many other applicants they have I guess.  Still, as you say - knock on teh door and if it was meant to be it will open...

Re: So tired.....

Trust God for a miracle! Oh well, if the job is supposed to be yours, it will be. What's it doing?

I know how you feel - on Thursday Im going for a "chat" with a guy from church who needs Admin maternity cover for one day a week. Im trying not to stress, but I havent done paid work for nearly 6 years, and although Ive done Admin, it's not what Im qualified to do... and then there's the childcare.... Soph would be covered, but then I remembered Emma! I shall just have to be straight with him and see whether he is prepared to take the risk. Why am I putting myself through this..? Im really not sure, you know. Oh well, push at the door, if it opens or if it's locked, act accordingly.

Good luck with everything.  I hope you get some sleep soon.  Try taking valerian, it is natural and just helps the mind unwind so you can relax more.  It is a medicine, so make sure you do your research about it before taking it.
