Guest guest Posted July 2, 2001 Report Share Posted July 2, 2001 Poor you - was it just one or two people being horrid at your meeting or a more general thing? Didn't you get any support from anyone? You've achieved so much since you've been Chair you should be REALLY proud. Forget them, you know you have made a difference to the branch and the charity as a whole with your efforts. Glad to hear Grace is OK - what a relief. Don't suppose our trip to Mc's is a good idea, if you're suffering with your weight. Do they do salads? ((Hugs)) in Stansted Beverly: This week we had a committee meeting (for my sins I am Chair of our local NCT brabch) and I just felt that it was awful - everything I said or did seemed wrong.

Guest guest Posted July 2, 2001 Report Share Posted July 2, 2001 Beverley - so sorry you're having such a grim time - try to promise yourself that it will get better some time and that even if it's bad now - say in six months time it will have improved. I did that when going through a traumatic time - that in a year it would be much better, and it was so nice to get to a year later and suddenly remember promising myself that my life would move on to find it had.... Hugs...
