Enjoy seeing your friend.

Thanks Beanie, I did. She’s in a far better place than she was a few months ago which is lovely to see 😊

Enjoy this time to do all the things that you were not able to do when you were working. If you were still there you would be setting off in the dark, and getting home in the dark, so meet up with friends, sow your seeds, go to the cinema or theatre in the afternoon. Guilt-free!
The recruiters are excited about you and their commission. You won't be without work for long, we all believe in you (sending more mad Kate Bush dancing).

You are such a good and sensible ‘mum’. Could have done with one of you when I was wee … 😉
I have that puritan guilt about not being 1,000% focused on the job search, even though logically it is pointless … I need to do something positive, nice for me and encouraging for my soul tomorrow methinks.

Glad you had a nice day today with your friend.

I hate that blooming guilt, it sits on my shoulder all the time wittering in my ear, it can be very hard to shut it up. Meditation does help for me, I am planning a nice long tomorrow as I have the time and need to rest!

Have you considered any courses you might like to do, more for fun then to put on your cv!

I sgned up for a Bach flower remedy one, as a refresher and a crystal healing one and psychic one. There are a million different course out there!!

KK, I dreamed I met up with your old boss to cajole him to beef up the reference they'd written for you. It was hard going, but I think I got through to him in the end....

Then I woke up and realised he wasn't German - so Lord knows who I was speaking to 🤣!

Have a good day 😀

Thanks FlowerPot - I was thinking about doing a walking meditation today …
Courses are a good shout, I have tonnes of craft and art resources here that I should start using. I think I need to make some time for it every day.

This is brilliant! 😂😂🤩 Thank you so much for backing me up subconsciously! 😉

It’s my birthday today.
There will be no ‘shoulds’ today.
There will be nice things, there will be lunch at my favourite garden centre, there will be banking the £200 cheque my mother has sent me, there will be thinking about what to put the £40 to that MiL put in my card, there will be internal smiling at the ‘Perfect Wife’ badge that came on the card from Mr KK 😂, reading a new lightweight novel, knitting, sewing, cross stitching.

The ‘real world’ can do one today! 😉
