Well I have had a bit of a funny interesting week and not funny haha.
The busyness  of the week started last Saturday on the 21st May with the blessing out service  of Northern lights Mcc  Pastor, who after some deliberation has decided to leave our church and take a sabbatical. Taking six months out to travel  and visit friends and family and then work in swaisiland for 6 month. Trying to discover where her calling is to be next.
Sunday saw LC and I getting up at 3.30 am, packing up the car and going yo Blaydon Rugby club to do a car boot sale. Now over the last few months we have done a fair few boot sales. We much prefer Blaydon by a long chalk, but it never ceases me how many people want something for nothing, but never mind, we did enjoy the banter and managed to self a fair bit of stuff. 50p an item seems to be the way to go! Unfortunately  doing boot sales is never any good for my old arthritis,  which has been very troublesome  of late.
Monday - Thursday consisted of going to work, meeting the new manager and saying goodbye to the old one, I wish L well in her choose path with the reserves. I can't  help thinking  that I won't  be far behind. I have been looking for a change and in something that inspires me, which my current job doesn't, it is detrimental  to my emotional / mental and physical  wellbeing. I have been looking into something call soul Midwives.
http://www.soulmidwives.co.uk/ I was a nurse for 30 years before I took a career  break to home educate  LC, I know that nursing no longer calls to me, having burnt out twice. But on going back in to the workforce  I have been a support woker for adults with learning disabilities and then a deputy manager for a children's out of school club. But recently  I have strongly had the feeling that I am being called to do something  along the lines of the link I posted. I have been looking in to doing voluntary work along these lines to see if it is something  I could do and to gain experience  before doing a course.
Whilst going to work, I have also been very busy washing, ironing and packing for LC and myself  as well as giving the flat a massive clean for my mum visiting and staying at the flat whilst LC and I go to  Birmingham to see my partner DC and visit the Annual Pride event.
