It seems ages since my last post and so much has changed.
For sometime I have been rushing around, often in circles, chasing my own tail in fact. I read on another blog that if you are stuck in a shadow you should move, and so that is what I have done. I suddenly realised one day that I no longer wanted to work 30 plus hours in an office. It was not really doing me, or anyone, any good at all. I often felt as though I had spent my entire life at a desk, I started work at 17 in a Woolworth store counting cash. Possibly a midlife crisis but I wanted more time to be outside, to walk. Something had to give and so I moved out of the shadow and into the light. After a family discussion I handed in my notice at work.
So now as the new year draws near I am making a new start.
I am relieved to have made the decision and to have handed over my job to someone who will fill it beautifully.
I am happy. I have time to walk.
I caught this sunset late one afternoon before Christmas, proving that nature provides the best illuminations.
And this week we walked at Blue Anchor. The sea was not so blue on this occasion but the wind certainly whipped away any remaining cobwebs. It was freezing but hot chocolate at the Driftwood soon warmed us up :-)
I would like to thank everyone who has sent me so many good wishes. I have been overwhelmed! I will miss everyone so much but there comes a time, I guess, in everyone's life when you know that it is time to move on. Thank you all for your friendship.
