Month of Drama

My goodness, it's been a while since I updated here. December seems to have passed in an exhausting flurry. To fill you in on what's happened since I last blogged: after a lot of rehearsals we finally put on our panto. It was a long run (for me) of 13 shows but I got through it all, I was able to sing my solo parts well and for that I feel quite proud of myself and hope to build on that and finally kick my stagefright.

Right in the middle of the run I got offered and started a job which was busy, hetic but well-pid so I got stuck in despite being exhausted from working all day and performing all night. However, it was not meant to be it seems. After 6 days of being there some senior managers decided to cancel my contract without having any understanding of what the job involves and how under-staffed and busy the team I worked for was/is. I'm still quite annoyed as I saw this as my chance to work steady somewhere and knuckle down, word hard, make a lot of money and sort myself out. But some people had other plans.

So I'm back at square one. No job, little money, and not much I can do to help the jobhunt t the minute as with being Christmas, it's all gone quiet. So I'm back home with the family (another drama, couldn't get home and ended up staying in London on Xmas Day and flying home on Boxing Day), I'm feeling so so so sooooo bored and could really do with a computer that can play sound and music. I really need to get my You Tube on and the laptop that has always been my lifeline when I visit home is awaiting repairs. Gahhhh!!!

And I'm not feeling well.

I'm so tragic!
