My blogging may be a bit weird and a bit haphazard
for a while, as I get used to a new job and a new routine.
For a start, I’m having to do everything from home because Gavin hasn’t had the go-ahead to let all his management team back into their office. I think I’m going in next Monday, but for this week it’s all Zoom and Teams and Messenger and phone calls, and me reading tonnes of literature and information about the business. My mind is a flurry. I feel nervous about the new job, relieved to be rid of the old one, excited about the Summer ahead, scared about possible variants, proud to have secured a new position, worried that I should have stayed in retail, reluctant to be at home all week, pleased I haven’t got to travel, and generally mixed up like a jambalaya that’s been knocked over while being stirred by an over-enthusiastic chef.
I know it will all settle down and I’ll get into it, but it feels a bit weird right now.
I should re-read my blogs from the time when Philippa started working at the doctor’s surgery. I remember her being all in a tizz while she got used to it all, and I imagine I was incredibly supportive and helpful, so I should take a look back and follow the advice I was giving her back then about how to cope.
In the meantime – Happy New Month to all, Happy Spring to those of you who designate March 1st as the start of a season, and Happy St David’s Day to everyone Welsh.RC 1-3-21
