Happy Good Friday Col! How are you feeling madam? Do you remember Good Friday, three years ago? We all went to the beach, you'll have to help me out, I'm thinking Waihi? But I could be wrong so let me know! I was totally remiss with my travel journal so I don't have all the details but I know that you'll put me right. We had Subway on the way... my first ever venture into Subway, and last so far, not that it wasn't nice, I just haven't been in since! Anyway, we had a lovely day even if it was a bit misty and we... you... wrote our names in the sand, see pics below!
Weather has been good here for a few days and today looks like it's going to be hazy but glorious. I have actually dug out the sandals today and the feet are getting their first airing of the year, they won't know what's hit them.
Work was pretty hectic this week and even though it was technically a short week, it seemed to last forever. Haven't slept well all week and yesterday and today I've been feeling pretty sickly, I think it may just be sleep deprivation and a culmination of a stressful, (I hate using that word,) few weeks.
And so, the weekend now stretches out before me....absolute bliss. I jogged for an hour this morning, had two breakfasts, (cereal before jogging then hot cross buns two hours later,) showered, put a wash load in then hung out on the line, all before 8am.
I'm now in my usual Starbucks haunt, just congratulated Kylie, the manager, on her wedding, and I'm here with my filter although I really shoud switch to my green tea soon. For the past 30 minutes, I've poured over some careers information that I printed out... in work.
For what seems like ages now, I've had this invisible clock hanging over my head, no one else can see it but I definitely know it's there. It has a very loud tick and it's been tick-tocking in my ear relentlessly. I feel like I've wasted so much time already but I've finally decided that I need to retrain as something valuable to people and fulfilling for me, however long it may take. I did look into the talent acquisition visa you mentioned and the age limit is pretty high, so I have ages yet after all. I have plenty of time to create a life I can be happy with.
I'm psyching myself up for a healthy eating makeover. It's actually so long since I've eaten proper meals, I really had to put my thinking cap on to consider what I would actually eat, but yes... I can do this. Starting May 1st, the gloves are off, healthy eating, here I come.
I'm heading home to iron, (yawn,) and do a little late spring cleaning. Back soon x
