Tempus Fugit ...

Doesn't time fly when you're having fun! Work continues as before ... there is now talk of creating a 'Bloggong Policy' 'cos apparently some members of staff have been saying nasty things about their bosses on the internet. I would have thought the current libel laws would cover what they need.

The job applications are going off. No replies yet but it makes me feel better that there are some there to apply for.

On a domestic note, I am getting out the brushes and acrylic paint again, and will be getting my hand in to rejuvenate the brush strokes and folk art skills. Gonna start with a piece in the style of Warren Kimble as a request from Julie. Then we'll see where we go from there. Hopefully when I get a different job I'll feel more inclined to spend time after work slapping paint about - would like to start doing some adult education classes to pass on the skills. Enough of this waffle, back to the paint brush ....

Oooo! 2006

New Year is here. A time for resolutions, I s'pose. Well they are not really very helpful because they are usually forgotten by the 15th, so I'm not going to bother. But what what I will do is aim to change my job - if the right alternative presents itself.

The people I work for and with are in such a piteous state; no team spirit, back biting, trying to protect their own, trying not to be made redundant the atmosphere is totally draining. As I am bottom of the food chain I have no influence for change so I must leave them all to their own fate.

The search is underway - 2006 has begun!
