Procrastination and the mature student

Mature students: capable, knowing their strengths and weaknesses, hard working, 'sorted', even solvent ----- ?

Family of mature student. Supportive, forgiving, helpful, proud.

This mature student? In meltdown. In debt. Undermined. Fed up.

Feeble minded female?? Yes. Due to demands of 'do something, useful, get a job!', I actually spent precious time being interviewed for temporary work in my 'profession' as a librarian.
see Youtube- March of the Librarians for reasons not! Job suggested: cataloguing medical stuff at the University my younger daughter attends. Who is so anti-mum studying instead of paying for her accomodation that she has refused to let me visit her! Simple choice really. So why the guilt?? Nature wires us mothers to care for helpless little ones. Does selflessness have to be a prison sentence ?

Reason for punishing myself. Wonderful trip to Rotterdam (using the rent money from my nephew !). See next post.
