All Change, Yet Again

Its all been rather hectic here recently, and my blog will have to adapt a little again to reflect that.

After a year of job hunting, interning and freelancing, two jobs appeared on the horizon a couple of weeks ago.  So I suddenly had various interviews to attend, trial days to go to and lots of new people to meet.  On top of this I was very aware that last week I had booked to go on holiday with The Boy and didn’t want to delay my potential employers by asking them to wait until I returned.

So just over a week ago I agreed a job with one of these companies, sadly without finishing the interview process with the other as there just wasn’t time, and this very morning I signed a contract for my first ‘proper’ job, and I start on Tuesday.  I’ve taken on a job as a Garment Technologist for a high street retailer, something I know I can do as I have done it before at Mulberry, but that doesn’t stop me being terrified!

While all these interviews were going on I suddenly realised that my free time was coming to an end and I should probably get done all of the errands/appointments I’d been putting off and I also needed to get ready for our holiday.  On the same week as all this happened my new Brompton Bicycle arrived, which I’ve hardly had a chance to ride yet sadly, but will be great for my new commute next week, and I also found out I’d got a place on the 2012 Brighton Marathon!  So I need to step up my fitness from here on in!

My Etsy shop will probably close once the items are sold/expired, but I may decide to keep it and list the occasional thing.  I’m not sure yet, I’ll keep you posted.

I’ll be keeping my Tumblr.  It’s had most of my focus recently, so I’ll try and be good and write here more.
