Weather has been a bit awful today. Very windy and heavy rain showers. My muscles are crying out for the exercise of cycling, but my skin is pleading with me to keep it dry.
So instead of venturing out I am looking for jobs online while watching the raindrops dance upon the river.
If I would like to enter the world of care, it looks like I could have the pick of about 12 jobs within cycling distance. Otherwise, there are very few positions available that are in any way suitable for me, or tempting. We’re currently living in a part of the world that is surrounded by boat hire companies and holiday homes so maybe I should take advantage of our location and enter the tourism trade. I have a day off on Tuesday so I might actually take a walk along the river and just ask people at every business if they need anyone over the Summer. Cleaning boats for minimum wage for a few months would be more fun that dragging myself into a depressing supermarket for five days a week, plus overtime (which I don’t get paid for)
I’d better change the subject now because I’m sure I made a promise earlier this year that I wouldn’t keep moaning about work….
The river does look beautiful. It’s dark and murky and it’s getting pounded by rain but it still has a relaxing vibe about it. I just hope we get to see it in sunshine again before they turf us out for the tourists.
