First day back at work today in over a week and it was okay!  Have to say this is a strange and unique time in my HR career - all in wind down mode now and just really sorting records for archive.  So for one period in my time in the NHS the work is a bit 'mind numbing' but that is fine since I am preparing to leave very soon anyway.

During most of my career I have been so interested in everything going on around me - even the politics of the organisations - now I am almost, just almost disengaged - but that feels right for close down.  Some colleagues, matched to new roles are hopefully finding their feet in a very different NHS setting - I have done that and I am ready for new challenges and experiences.

First I want to be free to be - initially that will be to have more time with Robert and Alex - for holiday and then sorting and organising with Robert our move north.

I am so glad for my NHS service - for the people I have shared with - people I have become friends with, people I have learned from and hopefully the other way around too!

So onwards and upwards - God is good and I trust in Him for a new future.
