Goodness how long it has been since I last blogged. A friend recently asked if I was still blogging and I felt a pang of regret that I was not so I have decided to try and give it another go.
There have been many reasons or some might say excuses why I have neglected my blog. I have started a degree course at work on effective leadership which is challenging me big style. I have also been working extra hours but the main issue is my addiction. Yes my name is Gail and I am a candy crush addict. I know I am not alone with this ridiculous issue. Several friends tell me they have had to delete it to get their life back. For those of you who don't know what it is take heed of this warning don't go there. It takes you to a dark place. There is some skill involved (this is the bit I like) but it's mainly luck and the makers hoping your frustrations of being stuck on a level will encourage you to pay for boosters to help you. It's like gambling but without the possibility of an occasional winner.
I decided I would try and give it up for lent. I'm not really religious but in the interests of restraint I always try and give something each year. I've done chocolate, cakes, biscuits, all with success but this year candy crush fast - epic fail! I have succumbed to the power of my addiction. I am at level 380 and I keep telling myself I will delete it if I get to 500. Although I said I was going to do that at level 100 and here I still am. Such is the level of my addiction.
In other news, there has been some slight movement in my dissatisfaction at work. I actually sent my CV off to. A job advert and successfully secured an interview. There was some difficulty over agreeing an interview date and in the end I didn't go, it was also too far away but it's progress and I was pleased to be offered an interview. There are also a couple of jobs at work I can't decide whether to apply for. Damn my indecisiveness. Never seem to have time for the application forms. If only I could delete candy crush. Still little steps, watch this space....
