Right Here Right Now – Part 6.


I now know what a dog feels like as it’s chasing its own tail, work has just gotten silly, too many people sticking their oar in, in things they have no understanding, no qualifications simply bumping their gums because they can!

What am I going to do about it, well to be honest I am going to do my best to help people, assist them with the training and give advice if they need it, why? Simply because that’s what I do, I’m a team player and I always want my team to win, I can’t say it better than that.

However, there is a caveat to that, I have learnt my lesson from my last place of employment, I worked ridiculous hours at nobody’s request, simply because I don’t like being beat! I will give my very best at all times, I will help anybody or any team as I want the people that I work with to be uplifted so that they too can do their very best, but I will not take it home with me, when the whistle blows, I will leave with my head held high knowing that on that day I have done my very best.

When I come back the next day, I will endeavour to do the same again, I will always put my best foot forward, I don’t have any other way of working, I will give it my best shot every time irrespective of my health on the day, a full blown 100% no matter what, but and it’s a very big but, when I finish and I go home to the wife, I do that so that I can look after her and her needs, she is not in the best of health and she is my number one priority!

Why? Because in the past I have neglected her needs and family life suffered, my place of employment has taught one thing its that me and mine are my responsibility, and to do that task I have to be present in their lives, when I’m needed not when work allows, I could quite easily get lost in the tasks of my job, again simply trying to do the very best that I can, that’s my foible nobody else’s thankfully over the last five years I have learnt that lesson.

So, with many cunning plans spinning around, I need to focus my life so that I can deliver on all of my promises to the wife, then and only then once we are on a level playing field we will once again enter the land of the living and spend time with friends and more importantly family!

The blog is doing great guns at the moment and I don’t want that to slip away either, as I realise its very important to my mental health as well as how I behave around people In general, thank you for all the kind comments and suggestions but for the time being I’m going stick in this furrow and plant whatever seeds I need to keep our life in the right lane!

So, stay safe and stay alive, I know what I’m doing (today) and I will take that, until the next time you know what I’m going to say……………Toodles!
