This year I made a resolution to get a job and keep it. The "Back to work diaries" will accompany me on that journey.
A scary, but exciting time ahead is waiting for me, where I'll be confronting all those fears, phobias and misconceptions and facing them head on..
These last few weeks have been a bit frustrating on the job front.
My temporary job ended 3 weeks ago..I was quite sad about that as I'd become very fond of everyone, but maybe it was just as well - I was taken in to hospital the next day and had emergency surgery the day after. The day after that, I received three phone calls offering me job interviews. Talk about bad timing!
So the job hunt is off for the moment. Things are slowly getting better but I'll be out of action much longer than I'd originally hoped.
My plan is a few more weeks recovery from the surgery, then gradually building up my strength and fitness and then back in the game!
(Control-freak Kerry must remember she can't plan things such as recovery and her body will take it's own time and not a specific time-frame dictated by her!)
I'm a terrible patient and already I've been guilty of overdoing it. Maybe I should just enjoy the privilege of having this time off - when I'm working I'll be wishing I'd taken more advantage of it.
My main worry is the loss of mental and physical stamina which took me so long to build up, but I guess they can be built up again over time.
Jobs are always being advertised and the right one will come along at the right time.
This whole episode has been a bit of a kick up the backside as far as fitness and learning to give up control are concerned.
Some very useful lessons in there..frustrating, but useful!
