So a New Year is looming

So we are just 2 days left of 2016....and it certainly looks like there will be some changes for me...
hopefully all good...

My job of 20 months has now ended ...due to several factors...

• needing something more challenging now ( i may live to regret saying that !)
• no opportunity to develop skills or progress
• the bosses being completly unprofessional on many levels ( 4 members of staff left in 8 months including myself )
• more money would be nice.....

so  I am busy sending cv and making calls 

And one thing this year has learnt me is that life is short and dont let the grass grow beneath your feet ( another saying there )

Don't let the grass grow under one's feet - Dictionary.com

www.dictionary.com/browse/don-t-let-the-grass-grow-under-one-s-feet

Act now, don't delay. For example, Write your applications today; don't let the grass grow under your feet. This expression alludes to waiting so long that grass grows

So if you cant sleep do your job applications

Bcus if we are not happy with our  'job lot'  then we need to at least try to do something about it....and if it dosnt work out well HEY 

I will have to keep looking

Looking back 18 months ago

Well to say things have been life changing is an understatement....

Life being the ultimate  word  or the lack of it
No less than 5 people who I knew very well.... one in particular being a very dear and beautiful frend....to say I was heart broken was an understatement, and the world is surely a poorer place without her....

Others were indeed tragic especially for those left behind...
And all were comparatively in their prime....some not even 50 years old.

How life changes.....

I chanced upon some diary entries from about 18 months ago....which would of been just after I started my new job!!
To say I was stressed, was an understatement , seemed like I was nearly over the edge....
Nervous, uncomfortable, unfamiliar, scared of making mistakes, drained,stressed,tired, just some of the words I used to describe how I was feeling.
No way did I think I would last 18 days never mind 18 months.
but true to the stubborn soul that I am...I dug my heels in and put up with a lot of s**t
And there's more...about my job to tell soon
But surprise surprise 18 months on and I'm still in the same job...how long for only God knows....
But what I do know is if I can do it, any one can....
What a difference 18 months can make......
And as they say as one door opens...so do a few more ( well thats not exactly how the saying goes )
