First class survived. Don’t think I made a tit of myself. Making friends seems unlikely though.

I’m stoned, a little faint after changing the bandage (just a non-stick one held one with normal bandaids lol) so lying on the couch. I’m such a pussy when it comes to my own body - I can watch and even help with wounds, but when it’s my wound… Ugh!

Got a bag of twisties though! #winning

One of my clients got pissed off at the slow pace of their projects, and decided to bring in a 3rd party “project partner”. Tomorrow I’m having a “conversation” with Senior Leadership Team. I have a real bad feeling I’m about to be scapegoated for the failures of the project team because the project team manager is besties with my manager. I hate this feeling so fucking much.

I appreciate it man. Let’s see how it plays out. It’d suck to be looking for a new job a few days before my birthday.

I’m OK money wise for a while, but I don’t think I can do another 6 months without a job.

Let’s hope things don’t happen that fast. Even if they do, the job market is weirdly hot this time of year.

My boys’ birthday is this Saturday as well so I get how you feel. I think you’ll be able to ride it out until past Christmas

I wish my boys could talk a bit more. Something was bothering one of them tonight and he couldn’t get to sleep, I wish he could tell me what it was

Depending on their ages, they sometimes lack the vocabulary to put their feelings into words, especially if they’re new feelings or sort of vague feelings or worries. It’s frustrating because it’s hard to know what prompts to give to get them talking. Sounds like you’re doing the right thing and you’re there for them and they know that, that’s all you can do sometimes.

Tom is the best dad , along with all the other dads here. I’m sure once they can they will talk. 🙂

Their speech was always going to be delayed because they’re twins. One is putting together two word sentences pretty consistently now and the other understands everything but doesn’t talk as much.

I’ve put together some flashcards using the program Anki and it has really helped them start recognising things and saying a few words
