Hello Out There
Hi to all the lovely ladies in this group, not much has been happening lately so thought I would put a shout out to everyone and see how we are all travelling, I understand how hard it is and that we ...
Hi @wendy55 Thanks for asking!
I'm having one of those weeks where I'm not sure whether to celebrate or hold my breath waiting for something shithouse to happen. I've finally done the equivalent of winning the jackpot (for me anyway) and been offered a job. I've only worked 360 hours in the last two years doing stuff that has occasionally made me pretty uncomfortable and this position, even though it is causal, is looking like a light at the end of the tunnel. A light that probably isn't a train.
So, tomorrow I put on my work gear (the few pieces that still fit) and my brightest red lippy and trot off for a weeks training. The job? Museum attendant and researcher. How cool is that! After 15 years in public libraries and 9 in a variety of research roles it feels so right. I'll have to fit into a pretty eccentric workforce, but as long as my brain will get up to even 70% of it's previous capacity I should be able to bluff the rest.
The garden is starting to kick into gear though the lack of rain in the last 6 months is already showing. I refuse to start watering as I'll only have to stop during summer. Oh well, like BC it has all happened before and the strong stuff--the roses and daisies--struggle through to bloom in a better season. Marg xxx
