Working woman!

Yes

That is me at the moment 

I am a working woman

And delighted to be

I didn't get to post the last couple of days 

As I am on the 8am - 4pm shift for the bank holiday weekend 

So tomorrow is the end of my working week

And I'm not back in until Sunday

So I have six glorious days off

Every evening 

I have come home 

Had a cuppa 

Then flaked out on the couch 

To rest my weary bones

The job is going well I think 

At least I hope it is 

I am doing my best to learn quickly 

But if course it's going to take a couple of weeks to really get the hang of it

The job itself is a lot different to what I thought it would be

I thought I would mainly be on reception

But in actual fact 

I am in the kitchen and the dining room most of the time 

It's busy busy 

And the house isn't even full

There are only 21 staying at the moment 

And the house holds 60

I have to say 

I really like it 

It's go go all the time 

Just the way I like it 

The staff are lovely 

Endlessly patient 

And so willing to help out this newbie 

The guests are a hoot 

There is a young at heart club from Dublin

Nine elderly ladies who are salt of the earth

So sound 

And do polite 

In between all the work 

We do get a chance to chat with people 

And have the craic

I don't know how the perceive me 

The weird girl with the piercings and shaved head 

But I've been told I am pretty 

I am a good worker 

And my favourite 

A good girl 

So that is nice to hear

This is just a quick post 

To let you know that I am alive and kicking 

And working hard 

Payday is Thursday 

And I can hardly wait!

It's going to be awesome to actually be paid!

My first mission when I get paid is to bring my family out for dinner 

Georgina said there may be problems with tax the first couple of weeks 

But hopefully not 

And it will all run smoothly 

I hope you are all well 

I need to catch up on blogs 

But at the moment life is intervening 

I can remember writing once 

They it was a sad fact that my virtual life was more active than my real life 

Well now I can most definitely say the opposite 

I am living my life now

I'm taking control of my own destiny 

This is another step on the ladder that is recovery 

ED wise 

I'm doing ok 

Because I'm working 

And on my feet all day 

I know I need to eat regularly 

It I will keep over in no time 

So I usually grab a cuppa at home before I leave 

I then get to have my breakfast in work after I've done the guests breakfasts 

A cuppa and some toast 

The at dinner time 

The chef keeps me a small dinner 

And I have that in the afternoon

So it's working out well

I feel no urge to purge 

As my body needs fuel if I am to keep going 

So all in all 

Things are going well

Every morning in my car on the way to work 

I turn down my radio 

And I ask God or the universe or who ever is up there 

To please help me get through the day 

And do my best 

And not to hurt myself or anyone else 

I don't know if that works 

But it can't hurt right?

Right 

I'm off for a cuppa 

See you on the next post...
