Well my T emailed me this evening and put a lot of my worries, panic and stress over the one I sent prior to rest (big sigh of relief). Has asked me to email her again prior to our next session so will probably do so closer to end of week.

Spoke to wife tonight and she thinks that this could be the best time to actually suggest to work about me going part time... would be cutting costs for them and could save my job in the long run. I'll have an informal chat with my boss tomorrow (FD and one of the primary peops who decides who is going).

Wife seems to think we'll manage, though yes we'll have to tighten our belts... she wants to encourage my attempt at writing and thinks this would be a good opportunity for that too. Kinda lucky in a way as she is the bigger earner of the two of us anyway (pretty much double my salary) so... yeah, it could work.
