That is my great news this morning, yesterday I had an interview and now I have a job. How great is that? The last 2 months have been hard for me and those around me, I have been forced to take a good long hard look at myself and think about what is important to me. This has resulted in what will be a complete change of direction as I enter the strange world now of commissioning and the even darker and more mysterious world of acute children’s services and maternity services. I am going to be busy, I am going to be learning lots of new stuff, it is going to be challenging but hopefully it is going to be a good move for me.

The last couple of months have been tough, I have been forced to examine my values, I have had to manage the often bizarre thought processes going through my mind as I struggled with the feeling that I was no longer wanted within my own service. I also had to fight against being pigeon holed into a job that people wanted to make up for me. Who knows how this new move will pan out, but once again I feel in control of my own destiny, and for me that is the most important thing!
