Out of curiosity, I’ve just looked at the list of top ten blogs from last month and found that mine is up there ( number 4 ) How bizarre. Thrilling though…and of course I’m really pleased that people are actually reading this.

Feel under enormous pressure now to write something interesting, but I can’t actually think of anything. I’m still trying to juggle working in my paid job 5 days a week ( when there is overtime) and be at the centre the other two. This makes me understandably a little brain dead.

So other than just trying to stay awake, what have I been doing? I had some professional shots of my work done over the weekend, by my good friend and photographer, Terry Hayes. It made such a difference to get some decent shots – they just look fabulous. I updated my webpage with them last night.

Apart from that, I’m still trying to get to grips with twitter. I’ll thank another artist while I’m here – Julie Dodd : www.juliedodd.co.uk who has been retweeting my tweets ( as she has a lot more followers than me!) I have spotted a few opportunities on twitter that I probably would have missed if I’d had the inclination to go and search for them, so perhaps it may be worth doing after all. We’ll see.

Bit of an odd day at the centre today. I didn’t get there till quite late as I’d taken my car for its MOT this morning and had to get the bus over .

The bus stopped at the housing estate, which seemed totally deserted. Walking down to the building, I only saw two people ( who actually worked at the centre ) sitting outside enjoying the sun. Inside, I got the keys to my room and had a chat with another member of staff . Someone had called in to see me in the week, but didn’t leave a message.

Some of my boats had flopped over in the heat, so I had to spend some time propping them up again.

No one at all came in………….. no idea where the kids were today. I asked the woman on reception where she thought everyone was today, but she just shrugged and said ‘Perhaps it’s because it’s so nice out?’

So that’s what working in a community centre is like.
