Saturday stroll

The highlight of my Saturday was walking with Jamie and Billy around the meres near Shakerley, after dropping Reagan off at horse riding. It was a lovely morning the sun shone a bit although it was extremely muddy in places after a lot of overnight rain

Ice Ice Maybe

Tonight, we took Reagan and Lincoln to Altrincham ice ring for their last lesson of the six Mommy purchased at Christmas but even though both children love skating we had to bring these Fridays to an end because over the next few weeks we are not available to take them. Reagan end her lessons passing […]

Millions change jobs every day

Like I said a few days ago the courting I have experienced feels like I am being headhunted but until there is a job offer on the table how can I be excited how can I say whether its an opportunity or not? It’s scarey to move jobs and until I see the alternative I […]

If you’re drowning

Sometimes, life can be so relentless and can feel overwhelming that you feel like you’re drowning, but you can’t get out of the water. At work I have felt like am drowning for a long time but recently there has been something to cling to, to save me I just have to swim towards it…?

How life can change

Happily worked hard

I had been desperate all week to get started on making shelves for my Dewalt organiser boxes but it had been pissing down all week and I didn’t hold out any hope of getting outside to rip down the three sheets of plywood I had delivered Tuesday and had been shrouded in polythene against the […]

Never made it!

My whole day was geared to getting home in time to go with the kids to ice skating which was really doable if the surgery closed at 14:30 went as planned I could get home from Biddulph easily, but as is the way right now the job was planned by someone out of their depth. […]

When you come to a fork in the road…

I was contacted this week by colleagues from my last job at Consulsoft asking if I would be interested in a vacancy at their new business, and at first it frightened me because I was not expecting it, I don’t like surprises! When they contacted me a second time in two days I began to […]
