Dear All, The job interview is tomorrow and I have prepared well, got all literature off on time, and for the first time ever while A's around me having been having a melt down. (1) When I collected my sister from the airport and drove her to my father's and very sick step mothers, he was very canned and emotional last night. I showed sympathy but detached and stayed in the present, I confess it irritated me when he pointed to his glass of whisky and said "at least I have this" Oh Yeah, (2) Am not ringing health nurses as they have my number and when the time comes they need to ring me as arranged, not controlling, directing or fixing, (3) Did not apologise for not being able to drop sister back to the airport tomorrow and have arranged to collect other sister on friday evening, (4) Feel sure I'm going to lose my workstation tomorrow but HP might have other things in store for me so I'm leaving it there, and sleeping great, Say a prayer for me tomorrow, I could really do with getting a decent job as things are tough here at present but will go to plan b if it does not work out,
Detaching and focusing on me is all I seem to do these days, it takes all of my conscious awareness... it is so easy to slip and start thinking about things that are not in my power or my concern & before I know it I am full blown obsessing again. Staying in the present moment.
Hope you get some good news with the new job!

Good for you. I personally find the less I am in poor me the less time I have for those who can manipulate me. I had no idea that was one of the issues. I admire your focus and determination.
