mamma always said...

Mamma always said, 'if you can't say something nice, then don't say it at all.' That's my rationale for having disappeared for a while. Things haven't been going well in my search for a vol spot. My dream position still hasn't been decided (first applied at the end of April) and I'm now beginning to think it never will.

But, on the up side...they have put me forward for a new spot up in Cumbria - not sure how i feel about that as I've only been through on the train (looks even more desolate than the Highlands) and heard iffy things from an old flatmate who was from Cumbria. However, I have gone back through my travel journal and looked at my comments about accepting my vol spot up in Edinburgh and I had the same misgivings and ended up falling in love with the place, so who knows?

Well, as I hauled my backside outta bed at 6:00 (indiana time) to wait for a call from Cumbria that never came, I'm going to say night night for now and head off for a nap in the staff room!
