Well where to begin... The last conversation I had with one of the two owners of the company I work for (let's call him Mr G) left me reeling and more than he will ever know has had a profound effect on me over the past couple of weeks... To set the scene I am a thirty-four year old single woman (enough of a cross to bear, to some it would seem) but I have also returned to university after realizing that my career is not the direction I want the rest of my life to keep traveling in... So in 2007, after a month of tossing it around in my head, I applied for a Bachelor of Nursing degree at my hometown university... Well that was 2007 and it is now the dawn of 2010 and I'm entering into my third year of study and will, hopefully, be finished by November 2011 - still a way to go but everyday is a step closer... It is sad to say but my university studies have become my salvation over the past two years and it has been a relief to have more to life than work and home - two years down (2008 and 2009) and some good academic results have helped to rebuild some of my self-confidence and self-esteem...
So after the soul-destroying conversation (well it was really one-sided as I barely managed to get a word in) and a minor meltdown (and more than a few tears) I've decided that 2010 is going to be my year and hopefully by keeping a blog I'll be more motivated than ever to keep up all those resolutions we make every year and forget by about the middle of January - this is to keep me honest.... So here's to 2010 and creating a new career and life ..... If anyone is reading this I hope you and your loved ones have a great 2010 ....
