Last week i called into work to make arangements about a meeting regarding being phased back into work by the therapist and Doctor. Told the head i would be in on Tuesday/Wednesday. From the conversation last week i was trying to get myself in a frame of mind to travel with my Daughter on the bus which some of you know i am unable to do.

Anyway today had a shower sorted out an outfit lol you would have thought i was going to a wedding but i just wanted to look my best.

Anyway after the ordeal on the bus which i managed well chatting to my Daughter trying to ignore other passengers or watching the traffic jams etc. i arrived at the gate i felt uneasy it was like starting again or going for an interview. On arrival see some of my friends which was lovely as its been months. I went to the office to see the manager to be told. No senior management was on the premises today they were all at a meeting in London. My expression was like oh i did arrange this for today, she apologised but i was truly disappointed of what i had put myself through mentally to get to the work place. I said i would go and see the children whom i had not seen in months.

For all my disappointed about no one being there to talk about my phasing back into work it was the most fantastic feeling the greetings i got from the class when i walked in, there were hugs and questions cards i was really overwhelmed and wanted to cry.

I visited a few classes spoke to the children took questions and made my way back to the reception.

I told the secretary i will call again and make another arrangement for next week.

Walking back to the bus stop i kept saying to my daughter this morning i found it a massive struggle to get here and felt so disappointed.

I thought someone should have called me and said that the meeting had been cancelled due to management not being around.

Then i thought every disappointment is a blessing, I go myself out the house i travelled the bus and walked a considerable way to arrive at work.

Hope everyone is well

Hugs

Love Seyi xxx

Hi

I agree some times our disappointments or times when we are pushed actually help us.

I rarely go out and was pushed due to circumstances to go out yesterday (see my blog on visit it hotel) it ended up I had an enjoyable couple of hours :)

Well done to you!!!

Hi Seyi, what a good way to look at it. yes, they were a bit naughty not letting you know the meeting was cancelled but lookat what you achieved! You faced your fears and did it. And the kids sound lovely, sounds like they've been missing you!
