Good things do happen...

As I went to write this post, I realised that I've almost written 200 posts on my blog so decided to change tact slightly. I had originally been planning on using this to talk about my new job but am going to use it as a wee bit of reflection. I'll start with the good news though. I was offered (and have accepted and started) the most amazing job offer. I am now a Junior Sister (equivalent of an NHS Junior Band 6) at a Private Company and I'm over the moon about it!! I've had the question 'how did you swing that'. Truthfully I'm not entirely sure. I went for a staff nurse job and when they called back they offered me the promotion. This is me getting back into nursing so I did a lot of soul searching as to whether I could cope with the role. I decided I could and my first real shift is Monday. I'm using the news above as the starting point for my reflection. When I think back about where I was in August 2013, it wasn't a good headspace. Septembe
