Yoo Hoo, Only Me

I'm not going to bore you with the 'what I've been doing while I was away' stuff. Partly because it wasn't very interesting and partly because I've forgotten what it was. Seems to be happening a lot these days, forgetting I mean...although nothing that comes in the "Wow! You've done what?" seems to happen here either. Anyway..

...I'm already feeling very positive about the new year, the last two haven't been the best for me with employment and I've learnt how it feels to be unemployed, unwanted and left with too much time on my hands. Im not suited to part time work, it's not organised enough. I need to plan a whole week of work. 

I've found that having a four and a half day weekend leaves me feeling lethargic. I know some of you would willingly gnaw off a finger to have a weekend like that, me too a couple of years back, but when you have worked full time all your adult life, having 'spare time' leaves me a little lost.  The 2.5 days of work, is spent catching up, and dealing with people who have had to wait for you to get back to your desk and email. I almost feel I have to apologise. The rest of the week I'm doing chores, school runs and pottering around.

If all goes well, I will soon have a 37 hour, stressful working week. Lots of problems and rushing around at home successfully completing the jobs that need to be done in the evening and at weekends. I can't wait! 

I'm not going to tempt fate, but don't worry you'll be the first to know if it comes off.
