@Former-Member
After 5 hours and 1 massive blister I am pleased to say leak located and repaired.
It was a plastic T junction joiner that had failed. Bonus was I had it repaired before the plumber darling and FIL insisted I book arrived saving $$$ 😁

Re: Supporting my wife who lives with Borderline Personality Disorder while maintaining self care.
Keeping a check on the water meter and it seems to have slowed down considerably.
About 60 Lph including usual household activities. (It was 80Lph + before with everything turned off).
Still a lot of water in the hole with water level rising but suspecting (and hoping) that it is just from surrounding ground water. (The area is quite waterlogged).

Re: Supporting my wife who lives with Borderline Personality Disorder while maintaining self care.
I finally got a response from uni today re options available. I am able to finish now if I want with a diploma rather than a full degree.
(This is an option as I am really over study).
Still have to do some more research re courses available at our local campus as part of my decision to continue or not. I have a fairly wide scope to choose from in that regard but I do want anything I do to be worthwhile and useful rather than doing something to fill a gap. The only alternative (to continue with study) involves 2 - 3 hours a week in travel. I tried that at the start if this semester and it did not work out.
I am also contemplating as an alternative applying for a job that in many ways would be perfect. I'm not qualified but have I believe all of the required attributes and the ability to learn what I need with specific courses.

Re: Supporting my wife who lives with Borderline Personality Disorder while maintaining self care.
Thought I was @Former-Member but now I am starting to unwind and can see the possibilities I am not so sure again I still have another 4 weeks to make a decision so trying not to over think or rush things.

Re: Supporting my wife who lives with Borderline Personality Disorder while maintaining self care.
Hi @Determined I find drawing a mind map always helps me make decisions or at least understand the items influencing my choices - a bit like those walls of photos and events pinned up in the movies with red wool joining them all together ... just a thought 🙂
