The rain is just incessant…. it pretty much rained all day yesterday and all through the night and it’s still going this morning. I’m still living in my sorts and flip flops but just inside…. it seems really strange being on lockdown inside the house when we’re so used to being outside all the time.
So the poor dogs have been left to their own devices this morning…. while me and Craigie have been cleaning maniacs!!!! So much more fun when we both do it. When you bust a gut in one room it’s so cool to walk though another room that’s sparkling….. he’s a good lad 😍
The only downside is that we have to live in the van now as the house is too clean and we can’t possibly touch anything…. woe betide any man or pupper who messes up now. Woe betide…… (I had to look up the meaning of that…. I’d typed wow betide!!)
We had a nice wee lazy lunch whilst catching up on a few episodes of VEEP that we’re rewatching. much care was taken not to make any mess and clean up after lunch instead of waiting until later… how long will this angelicness last….. I made that word up too…. 😇😉
It’s now 17.35 and it’s STILL pouring. It’s teeming down….. the weather had a head on impact to Covid-19 lockdown as I just want to lounge about and watch movies all day!
In some shock news I just made a couple of enquiry calls for Pawsitive Solutions today to see how I liked it……. 🤫 Maybe I was lucky with the two people I called but I loved it. Loved to chat to them and hear the happiness in my own voice. I’m not gonna lie, I was terrified when I messaged to say I’d like to be considered for the vacancy they have, only to be asked to make two calls this afternoon 😱….
The hardest thing was making that first call. I’m sure they won’t all be as easy as that but it was so lovely to feel a part of something with a purpose and to realise that I could do it. I’ve been completely robbed of my self confidence over the last few years, actually as I write that I realise that I wasn’t robbed of it… circumstances in previous jobs led me to doubt in myself and wipe myself out. I’ve spent the last 22 months (not that I’m counting…) trying to rebuild myself piece by piece. It’s been the hardest journey of my life but today I “ate that frog” and stepped out of my comfort zone to do something that used to come naturally to me. To chat with people, make connections, make them feel special, make them feel good about themselves and I enjoyed every minute of it.
I am however, now completely exhausted and might not be able to talk again but Craig will love that when he’s home 😆🤣
So I just got another 2 enquiry calls to follow up! Don’t worry I won’t post about every single call I make but it’s been a big step today! I’m now gonna get dinner ready and chill….
STILL RAINING…… 🌨🌨🌨🌨
Stay safe everyone 💜💜💜
