My poor little blog has been neglected of late. I had a very busy week at work in the lead up to me flying off to visit family for an early Christmas, so I didn’t have much time to post before I left. I didn’t have any way of posting while I was up there either.

And then the day after I got back home (Monday last week), I went in to work and found out our whole department had been made redundant. Merry Christmas indeed! (the joys of being government funded). So the past week has been, well, difficult to say the least. I tend to go in to shut down mode during times like this hence the lack of blog posts. As it is I’m still struggling to put words together but I need to snap out of it as I have jobs to apply for that require me to be articulate.

I won’t bore you with details, but I’m basically in a situation where I need to make that choice between having  job that doesn’t interest me/is not in my field, but pays the bills vs. taking a risk at finding (and getting!) a job that I would be passionate about (and that I know I would be good at). It’s all coming down to whether or not I have enough faith in myself, and boy that’s a bloody big question. But I think I’m going to take the chance…

Anyway, that’s enough about that! I do have a great big post that I’ve been working on that will probably need to a wait a little longer as my days are filled with job hunting and resume writing, but hopefully I’ll get it to you all soon. In the meantime, I hope everyone is enjoying the end of the year. Here’s to a successful and happy 2016!

P.S – what do you think of the new blog layout?
