This being the school summer holidays, I have been somewhat absent from these pages for a while (did you miss me?) and have just snatched a small second of time to write this inbetween well, I won’t bore you with domestic drudgery and family histrionics but I’m sure you get the picture.
Following on from the story so far….
My REview bursary jobs list is (slowly) kicking into action. The primary thing I think was to change my mental state. Tick box.
Second in the priority stakes was my website. A couple of years ago I was delighted to get a grant to make my site but I didn’t really know what I wanted (or needed) so I sort of worked with what I had at the time. In retrospect I think I should have been a little more forward thinking, but that is easy to say with hindsight.
I am now grappling with making what served one purpose, serve another. Am I just fiddling while Rome burns, and arranging the deckchairs on the Titanic? – maybe. But it is the best I can do for now with the major part of my brain held hijack by three little darlings.
At any rate, looking at it with my new (super-specked) eyes, I can see, and know in my bones, how it is supposed to look – so that is half the battle won.
