My residents can be a handful but the pay off is pretty great so even when I struggle with cranky people there are still lots who are delightful and lovely that make my job very worthwhile.

And working with some of the more challenging members of society would be draining I imagine. I'm just happy to see you post again. Take care.

I almost never bare my upper arms in public, so I'm really drawn to dresses with sleeves that hit at least at the elbow (there's always cardigans, boleros, fur wraps, etc if they don't, but it is handy for sure when they do). I think that dress, much like the vibrant pink one, looks sensational on you. What a great pattern - it's subtly redolent of snake skin to me. <br /><br />I'm deeply sorry that your new job is giving you such a beating. We miss you, but all totally understand if blogging sometimes takes a backseat for you now. Family, work, and the true priorities of life must come first and its admirable that you're putting yours as such. I don't have much to spare, I'm afraid (I have precious little at the best of times!), but I'm sending you every last ounce of energy I possibly can to help you muster through those long work days of being cursed at and having your belongings nicked - that would take the wind out of anyone's sails!<br /><br />Gentle hugs,<br />♥ Jessica Witchcrafted Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02992822472797191121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7476476926921374004.post-87548886269271743642014-07-20T13:32:29.333-07:002014-07-20T13:32:29.333-07:00That first frock is a total sweetie!

Everything familiar and easy. It all gets turned upside down when you are new. But each days brings me a little more knowledge and a little more familiar with all the people and processes. Good luck with your new work struggles too and have fun at the market.

I am fine with cutting out the gym time (bloody sweating! Yuck!) but I definitely can't do without blogging and shopping for some me time. Thanks, as always, for the supportive and very insightful comments.

I very much admire you for managing to work full time, I couldn't face it alongside a family, I'm far too lazy! Balance? No idea how to achieve that, and I guess it means something different for everyone. In my experience, it does tend to mean something has to be sacrificed, but we all make our own decisions about that. I hope op shopping gorgeous frocks and blogging doesn't have to go though, that would be very sad! Perhaps it's more a case of cutting back rather than cutting out? <br />Beautiful colours, love the pink especially, and it's really good to see you! xxxCurtisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10362184504889147455noreply@blogger.com
