Work Shy

Long time no blog. But no tangible reason ...

Yes have been busy battling the weather & the constant garden flooding (as has everyone else in this part of Surrey), have had a lovely weeks holiday en famille during the recent half term (FSTeens, Mother in law & sister in law all present & correct thank you), attempted a diet (did 5 days of meal replacement rubbish and gained- yes GAINED - 4lbs so have given up on that. Will follow the super successful highly scientific "eat less, move more" one now) and most recently we had an FSTeen's 18th birthday.

But that is it sadly, that is all I have been up to. Have done no work. Work has been missing. I have done nothing; nada, nowt commercial since November. It's a worry. I have not been sitting on my hands worrying however, oh no. I have been on a big new biz drive & have been calling, emailing, coffee-ing, lunching - you name it I'm doing it, but there seems to be nothing out there - well certainly nothing for me. I may soon have to take the Faux off my blog name...



So I have taken an unprecedented step. I have signed up with head-hunters. I am toying with the idea of a real job. a full time, get on the train 5 days a week proper job. But the more I think of it the more I shudder. 12 years of doing it for myself very happily; am I ready to turn my back on it? To join the great hoards of commuters? To deal daily with people? And what would the KC do all day without me to meow her demands at? No scrap that - what would I do all day without the KC?

F**k off 2016

2016. A year to forget. Celebrity death-fest. The year that so many things broke. The year we got stuck. What a frankly cr*p year. I was goi...
