Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 6th April 2023.

6th April, 2023.


Yes: it’s now Thursday.

And I have to admit, I’m feeling mildly obsessed.

You’ll be aware I’m waiting to hear the results of a tribunal: that could involved a lot of financial help … and — possibly — some back pay.

I’m supposed to be told by post: and am expecting the letter by tomorrow at the latest.

In the meantime … ?

I’ve been obsessively, and repeatedly, checking my bank: to see if anything’s gone in.

It hasn’t.

I’m — understandably — obsessed: as, with the money I’m getting, any extra help is important.

I’m also wondering if it’s a possible sign of  Obsessive Compulsive Disorder: but doubt it … 

But also … ?

I’m thinking I may not have been awarded anything: the process is taking its time.
