...oh blog verily i miss thee

in bed, off work, got lots to do so need to crack on but still ...have got 5 minutes before breakfast and a trip into durham to do a few "messages"

i find myself at a crossroads. there's a secondment opportunity at work to go and be a safeguarding manager for 6 months and i\m struggling to decide. it would be 6 months away from working directly with service users but would still be working with people. my customers, i guess, would become other professionals who were part of safeguarding processes. i'm maybe underestimating the role but i think it would be much less stressful than my current one ...same money ...different location ....and i can go back to my current job after 6 months ...sounds like i cant lose .....still hesitating ...i'm not a good decision maker but, you know, i think i'm going to do it for one reason ...because i want to ...i want a break from what i'm doing, a change is as good as a rest, a different perspective on an area of work that i'm used to being involved in.....

...there's just a lot going in at he moment at work, at home, christmas, you just don't want to make the wrong decision do you.... but as both karl and alex said it's only 6 months... even if i hate it there'll be three months over before i know whether i hate it or not and that only leaves three months.... so i think the answer is yes....
