Blinking back the tears

It’s been ages, normally that’s a good thing. Not this time. Work is crazy and I’m really starting to dislike it. I’m seriously considering knocking teaching on the head, at least for a few years. It’s so hard to get into and there’s no jobs in teaching at the minute.

Through sheer hospital negligence Carl’s grandmother is dying. It’s too long to explain how it’s their fault and I don’t have the energy to go into it. Point is, she’s dying…soon. Her family have been told to stay with her. It’s really sad because Carl only just made up with her before she got sick. I’m closer to her than I am to my own grandmother so I’m finding it hard too but I have to be strong for Carl. Who knew blinking back the tears actually works?!

Bye for now
