Spring will soon be sprung


Ponton Valley, A nicely hidden valley within walking distance of Grantham.
Little Ponton church 


I actually took this by accident but I quite like it



Not quite sure what the flowers are. I think they're celandine.
Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong

The end.(Or is it the beginning)

I've been finished for almost a week and already it's driving me mad. The paperwork is a nightmare! I never realised that you have to do so many interviews and fill out so many forms for a pittance.
Time to get busy again. The "Old Boy Net" should prove more effective than the internet

The Weekend looms...

Only a couple of days left before I'm finished at work. Ten years is a long time and despite all the aggravation I'm going to miss it. I've lost count of the job applications I've already sent.

This weekend I'm off for a walk. If nothing else the break will do me good.
Then maybe I should sort out some sort of routine for next week. I get the feeling I'm going to be busy filling in forms.
Enough of that for now. Let's see if I can get some nice pictures over the weekend

A little reminder

Just to remind myself why I must bounce back

Still confused

It is pretty much taken as read that as of 20th Feb I will be officially redundant. I'm spending most of my spare time trying to sort the paperwork, and that is a full time job in itself!
The online job sites seem to be for £60,000 executive jobs that have already been filled.

I have to pick myself up and get back into things, but right now if I were honest I'd prefer just to curl up in a ball and hum gently.

Time for a break and a cup of tea. Maybe I'll find something tomorrow.

AWFUL week

 This week has been a pretty bad week generally. I got my redundancy notice from work- what's that all about? Then to crown it all I hurt my back on Thursday.
After nearly three days of constant pain I went for a short walk round the block. (about two miles)
It seemed to do the trick and freed the muscles a little. Still a bit tender but no way as bad as it was.

I've got my appointment booked with Citizens advice- not that I don't trust them, more to get my house in order.
Now back to the task of job hunting...
