London Life
Today I return from London again. It’s been a brilliant weekend. Apart from a slight concussion – I misjudged a low ceiling and have a bruised and painful head to prove it!
The weekend has reinforced my thoughts about considering moving back to London eventually. Seeing so many friends has made me realise just how much I miss them. I also survived a weekend of more socialising than I’ve done in a long time without feeling shattered this morning. Though a weekend away from the gym has left me craving exercise and I’m going to enjoy Zumba tonight.
I’m still not ready to pack my bags immediately. It has been fantastic though to see that some of my friends miss me as much as I miss them. Speaking to them they’d be glad to see me back next week! However there are still things I want to achieve in my current job and for once I don’t want to rush the job hunt. I’ve never had the luxury of time to find a job before. There’s always been time and money pressures to find a job as quickly as possible. Considering that I’ve not done too badly, even with the ups and downs. But this time I can browse. I can really explore the options and use what I’ve learned in previous jobs to try and find something even better.
Though it may frustrate people, I’m proud of my ability to adapt to the changes in my life. Moving to Durham was absolutely the best thing at the time, but a lot has changed in the past year and my initial feeling that it was somewhere I wanted to settle have changed too. I don’t have to pretend that I’m still as happy as I was initially, I can admit that things have changed. A lot might change in the next year too. Though London is definitely an option now, it’s not a certainty.
For now though I have things I want to achieve where I am. Personally and professionally. Things have been going well for the past few weeks and I’m looking forward to building on what has happened so far.
