A bit stressed

Trouble? Me?

Steve, Madge and Bob, Jumeirah Madinat.

Adrian and Jacob, at the Madinat again. It's a great place to go out.


The Burj Al Arab. It's pretty impressive.

It's been stressful times here lately. Everything just takes so long and it feels nothing is easy. The whole job process is very slow. Daisy is still unsettled (no doubt picking up on how we are feeling) which is hard on all of us. I've been feeling very guilty so letting her get away with being a bit of a toad which is only making the problem worse. We always knew the first few months were going to be hard, we just need to be patient. It will all be worth it in the end (I keep reminding myself).

We've had visits from Andy's parents and brother, my mother and Ness and Bob which has been fantastic. Not only was it great to see them, they all came via duty free so our evenings are no longer bereft of alcohol. Hurrah! We obviously can't go out much in the evening with Daisy so being able to have a drink at home makes things much better. I never thought I could appreciate a well stocked fridge so much. We also caught up with Adrian, an old workmate of Andy's who was here on holiday and had a great night out with him and his friend Jacob. Daisy spent the night next to our table, parked up in her pj's fast asleep.

We've got a couple of things on this weekend with people I've met in coffee groups. Husbands are coming too so it will be a good chance for Andy to have a break from the the tedium of job hunting.
