Mad and just too busy for words. The move to our head office seems to have affected my stress levels in quite an adverse way. I am not sure if this is because I have got a bit behind with things due to having no proper office for several days last week, because I have loads more work to do, or if it is because I am just too visible and accessible in my new office. I suspect a combination of the three, and perhaps one or two other reasons I haven’t yet thought up!

Today I attended the most bizarre of meetings. It was just an hour in duration but I came away feeling completely confused. The person calling the meeting had told the rest of us we were meeting for one reason, but when we arrived her agenda seemed completely different. I thought it was me who was confused and somehow missing the point, but no, afterwards it transpired that others were equally in the dark. So guess what? Before I left today, another meeting had been called to sort out the confusions of the previous one!

Rumours now surround us, we are all in no doubt that several million pounds needs to be saved, and the myths, half truths and perhaps lies surround how this will be done. Perhaps services will be cut, but which ones, perhaps people will be made redundant imminently but perhaps that will cost more than it saves after all a lot of people have given a lot of service and would be expensive to get rid of.

I went out for a walk when I got in from work. This had two purposes, one is that I really am intending to get fitter and slimmer and have taken the bull by the horns as it were and changed my diet and upped the exercise levels. The second and best reason this evening was that it has helped clear my head. Now I can get on with cooking dinner, and this evening plan a teaching session for tomorrow that I haven’t had the time to do yet. I just hope tomorrows audience don’t notice the joins!

The picture is a British group called Madness, I have seen them live and they are great. Tomorrow’s TT might be about concerts I have been to, if I have been to 13. I will have to think about that!
