Can't believe it's been a year! I wanted to write more about the cat, then I saw this.

New day
Today has been a good day. For the first time I left Darcy alone and I came home to find that everything was exactly how I left it (though obviously her food and water had gone down). She was pleased to see me, a little clingy but in the manner of most cats she wanted [...]
Why is it always ‘okay’?
It's the end of the week and, looking back over the last few days it's been a mixed bag (of nuts). Yesterday I went to an interview a few towns over; the job is really good, the people seem really nice, I would definitely be getting a lot of exercise walking to and from the [...]
Weird
Yes, a random title, but it's the one that fits this post perfectly. A few weeks ago (two weeks today in fact) I went for an interview at a company that provides private health care services. The job sounded quite interesting, is VERY local and the company isn't full of the bureaucracy that the larger [...]
Three weeks unemployed
Well these last three weeks have been interesting - if you can call daytime TV, calls that end with "we'll see if we can find you something" and interviews that end with "we'll get back to you" (and then they never do) interesting. Money is tight, I am getting incredibly fed up with being at [...]
Job hunting is the pits and other animals
Earlier this week we were informed that we are to have a massive meeting next week (Thursday to be precise) to let us know our fate within the organisation I work for. Of course, any signs of this and it's mass panic (not only from my colleagues but also - silently - from me). Today [...]
Wasn’t for me
I never heard back from the agency. It's been two days since I called them, and today I realised that perhaps it was a little bit of a security blanket move to tell them about the operation after they'd offered me the job. Unintentionally, I told them about it afterwards to see how they would [...]
Buses, knitting needles and writing
I was on a bus that got stuck today. When I say that I don't mean stuck in traffic, I actually mean stuck stuck. We were driving into the bus only zone of the town centre near to where I live and there was an ambulance parked opposite the road calming measure known as a [...]
Friday at last
For multiple reasons I don't want to go into, this week has taken so long to pass. I am relieved that the weekend is finally here and celebrated with a lovely chilled glass of white grenache and a bowl of cereal (yup, because that's how I roll - so glamorous). I have been struggling for [...]
New start
I have been meaning to do this for a long while, but for some reason, I kept on putting it off. Today, as I was sitting at my desk in the office thinking about jobs and how there is no such thing as permanent anymore, I realised that there was much that I could, if [...]
