~Breaks, brakes~

I am giving myself a bit of a break today (mentally) as I seem to be either physically busy or mentally busy

The last week or so has been stressful with beds collapsing, immunisations, people quitting, new starters, more people quitting, big dentist appointments, Big A away for 2 weeks doing a course for work, trying to find jobs for Possum to apply for....
Not to mention the 'Million Paws Walk' that turned out to be 5km long, which would have been fine except I had my 'MC Hammer' Bonds pants on, the tops of your inner thighs rub together after a km or two.....ohhh the chafe.....ohhh owww...the dog loved her walk though, and plenty of money was raised for the RSPCA :)

Yesterday I caught up on some little jobs that were hanging over me, that medibank private claim that I should have done months ago but didn't because they didn't send me a dual claim form and I don't go into town much to get a claim form and you need a password to log in to the medibank website to get a claim form and Big A has the password and was away and it all got far too hard for my ADD brain to get around

In the end I rang Medibank to make sure my $1200 upcoming dentist bill was going to be claimable, and the nice young fellah on the phone emailed me a claim form, so that was done and dusted, posted....done.....next....

Now I have to get a specialist referral letter so that I can claim for my mouthguard, yeah sure specialist appointments are just growing on trees, so had to cancel the appointment I had this afternoon until I can get another letter.....

I also had photos for my Grandma that I had been meaning to sort out and post for months, did that too yesterday

And a new distributor agreement that needed signing and posting to H/O.....done

And Mum's birthday yesterday....all sorted, gifted and visited

I had one of those 'OMG I can't do this any more' moments with work last night :(

Long story, I won't bore you with the details but I once again put forward some concerns via email about a recent decision that affects my team in a negative way, in fact I emailed several people and not one replied, and it's been weeks.

We now have a forum for discussion on the website and the same topic was raised, so I added my two cents worth, very politely.
The national sales manager responded and suggested I discuss with my manager, his tone was dismissive and he claimed to have 'answered this before' not sure what he meant there but he hasn't answered me personally directly on it.
I pointed out that I haven't been answered at all, and how the decision affects my team etc, and that I sent a copy of my concerns to my manager at the same time, and he hasn't responded either. 
The fact that he has only rung me twice since January doesn't make me want to run to him with any issues either.
I have been with this company for 13 years now and the way it's being run is disturbing at present.
I just felt so sad and defeated last night. 
The lack of support, people quitting (other managers), stress, changes, there will be no-one left soon!


I guess on top of the uncertainty with Small Man still, and all the different goings on recently I sort of stopped in my tracks for a bit.


I am going to just calm down with my expectations of my team as far as the new website.
I was wanting everything to be 'right' - but it's never going to be, so bugger it, I will do the best with the info they give me, it's not worth the stress.
I am usually really easy going and don't worry so much about the finer points. 
I think all of the changes have pissed me off so much that I was worrying over the small stuff. 
Not going to any more!!


I must try and get back to taking each day as it comes......finish what I start (most of the time)....
