Hello, dear reader!
Well, they do say bad luck comes in threes.
I didn’t realise they were talking hundreds, though. But that’s what it feels like at the moment.

Job Satisfaction
Hello, dear reader!
Just for a change - I thought I would give you a Mark break!
As you know, I love to tell you readers about my progress, as you have been a pretty important part of my journey so far!
I have now been in my position within the NHS mental health services for just over a year, and its been the most amazing and scary year so far. I used to hear about people who loved their jobs, who felt absolutely fulfilled in their employment etc etc, but I had never really felt that way about any of my jobs in the past. Sure, there have been times when I know that I have been and done exactly what is needed at the time in a specific role, but I have never felt more happy - or more ‘ me’ in a job than I do now.

Blowing A Fuse
Hello, dear reader!
And how are we today?
Me? Well truth be told I’m a little worn out and a little bit frazzled.
This post was going to be the semi-traditional post New Year goals and aspirations post, but considering the events of the last week, I think that one will have to wait as I run you through the myriad reasons for my current lack of sparkle.

Silent Nights
Hello, dear reader!
And a Happy New Year!
As you may or may not know, over the festive period (Xmas and New Years inclusive) I haven’t blogged. A combination of being that little bit busier and that little bit drunker than the norm meant writing, in whatever format was not my first thought. Add in the fact that both big days fell on a Wednesday, the day I usually post the blog, and, well, something had to give.
Something that turned out to be me.
But, it’s a brand new year, and a brand new me (Well, one out of two ain’t bad), and I’m back, baby! The blogger returns! (or possibly strikes back, you choose).
