As a consequence of the way things are, this is to be my new blog home. I was recording my daily thoughts on a journal on a health forum, however now I decided it is time to move on.
I will be keeping this journal anonymous. This will allow me to record my thoughts without apprehension.
I know what it is like to be apprehensive over sharing online. I was a member of Facebook for quite a few years. I have recently deleted my profile, because the site was harming my mental health.
Well today I have been relaxing.
It is my second out three off days I have every two weeks. I took the time to walk to my GP (to drop off a prescription), and to go to Sainsbury's to do some groceries.
I am currently musing over the possibility of changing my voluntary positions. I currently volunteer at Sue Ryder 4 days a week. The work is not hard, although at times it can be stressful. Additionally the managers (both young women) can sometimes be quite curt and lacking in empathy. An issue arises when one cannot relax during quiet periods because of an 'over-enthusiastic' manager.
However, there are good points. The work days include the chance for daily exercise. I really quite enjoy having a walk, with a target of getting 10,000 steps in. I feel this exercise is helping me, since I feel quite fit and healthy. Furthermore I am sure I am getting slimmer. This is quite a boon for me, I would love to be slim again, I am sure it would make my life more enjoyable.
Regardless, I will turn up at work as usual. I will do the work, and get my exercise in. I have also applied for three other roles, and if I am successful I can move on then.
The other reason I feel it may be a time to move, is because the job has become rather repetitive and is losing its allure. I would hate to be turning up and just being miserable everyday.
