Do you ever get periods of your life where everything seems to go wrong, where nothing seems to fit?

Well that's where I am at the moment. How can I go from being quite happy in my job/s and then all of a sudden it turns into a big shomozzal (sp?).

As some of you might know I got what was quite a good job for a company that I had specifically told myself that I wanted to work with. In addition, I also got a teaching job one night a week, which I also really wanted to do.

But I've just given up teaching and I have now gained a new boss who is stressing me to know end in my full-time job.

I just feel like such a failure in teaching and well I'm really beaten up inside about it. I just was not up for the job, which I didn't realise, until I was actually in it. It was too hard a subject for me to teach and I feel I didn't give the best teaching to my students because of it.

To top it off as I said I have a newly appointed manager in my job, who is making my job much more harder.

Why do these things always happen in the one go? Is someone trying to tell me something.

Soemtimes I feel that is the case!
