Why can’t I blog

I am finding it so hard to blog I think about it all the time but never actually pick up my phone and write down my thoughts. It’s wierd because I can obsess about getting my thoughts down in writing and have to blog everyday most of the time but just lately it’s been almost […]

As days go?

New job not the greatest but 7 months in to be told while on site that 100+ redundancies are likely but not able to get any facts….as days go I’ve had better
