back to workPosted on Sun 14 October 2007 at 10:25It’s been good to get back to work. People were a bit diffident around me initially, not really knowing what to say. I guess it is a difficult situation for others to be comfortable about, God knows I’m not that comfortable with it myself. However, once the newness wore off a bit, it was a comfort to be there. Good to be in amongst other people and definitely good to have something else to think about. I guess there has been nothing else in my head for the best part of a fortnight apart from THE BETRAYAL, which is what it has become in my mind. And it has underpinned every thought and action. So, being back at work will help to put it in perspective and bring me back to some state of normality. I have been asking my colleagues for attestations so I can get on and do some work on my PDRP (professional portfolio), so that I can have it finished before I hopefully move on. Far easier asking them now as I am still there to get on their case! I have some really nice comments so far, so should get it handed in before too long.The estate agent came out on Saturday morning to take photos of the house. I had thought it was tidy initially but of course, once I came back from swimming first thing in the morning, I decided it wasn’t nearly tidy enough so set to in a frenzy of cleaning. I phoned steve up to come and do some outside stuff as I don’t really see why I should carry it all myself as it is our joint responsibility. So, to cut a long story short, it was all done by the time she came out and sadly it looked the best it has ever done. Sadly, as the future I thought I had here is no longer possible. It is now on the market and that is quite daunting – as it will have to be immaculate pretty much all of the time now. There will be a large board with photos of the back garden and the interior, by the road at the front, so hopefully that will generate some interest. I hope it sells quickly so that I can get on with the rest of my life. I waver between confidence, trepidation and complete terror at the thought of my interview on Friday. I spoke to I was absolutely knackered last night. An hour swimming, the stress of having the photos done and all the cleaning around that, then 2 hours of mindless hard graft in the Gym just for the sake of doing something, then a full shift at work. Suffice to say I was dropping by the time I came home. Into bed as soon as the blanket warmed up and off to sleep. AND THEN…..Poppy had gotten into my wardrobe and started scratching to get out around Melissa has had a busy weekend. Off to dad’s on Friday night as I was working late, then the stables and her riding lesson on Saturday morning. Then back home just in time to be picked up by Jan and Aimee to spend the night over in I'm also looking forward to my break from recent events - roll on next weekend!
