Saturday thoughts …
This week of my birthday has been mixed; allsorts of things have happened. As the week progressed so the little events came and went, Also my Saturday ‘post’ remained unconsidered. There is nothing unusual in this; in fact it is perfectly normal. I never write it before Saturday morning; it is its nature. Unlike the rest of the week including ‘Silent Sunday’ each post is carefully prepared the evening before.
As regards Saturday; as the week progressed each seedy event that loomed embroiled in my mind as a likely subject; the petty quarrel, the lonely misjudgment throbbed like a sore thumb! Unnoticed went the birthday good wishes, hope and good repair.
Instead the angry thoughts, recriminations and distaste I remembered. During the night I woke with clever one-liners ringing in my head that echoed my hard-done-by-ness. Neat remarks that would remind you that my boss was against me etc. etc.
As I came down the stairs so the pen was poised ‘WHY?
The truth is I have had a good week; I received a Good Achievement Award. My work experience student, who has been shadowing me (and doing a whole lot more beside) for the last few months has won a post as a Graduate Trainee at Cambridge! It was my birthday as already noted. I met with friends and had fun! Working for 99.9% of the time; I was unaffected by any negative vibes(previously discussed)
I had a meeting that didn’t go according to plan…
Why is it I want to to tell you about this and win some sort of sympathy vote … I will never know!
