WOW, 2 months have passed since my last confession...I mean blog, I dont know if people still read this but hey it's good for the soul, so will keep on with unloading everything.
Rather than go through all of dec, will just blog what i have been upto recently, which can be summed up in one word -MEETINGS! Ahhh dont we love 'em! I have nothing against them, but sometimes feel I would much rather be going out doing the things that are being talked about when sometimes conversations can go round in circles and you come to the end of the meeting and think 'did we actually have a conclusion to that issue??' Yuck, nah much rather plan, and get out there and DO SOMETHING!

This week has been the week for short tempered folk to blow off steam at me, which I know sort of comes with the job, I can understand it if I were working in burger king, or the filling station (terrible food, dont go there) but when you are trying your best for the good of the children and young people - IN A CHURCH!, people have ago at you for something - and it always conflicts, so you cant get anything right no matter which way you do it! Why does this always happen in a church context - I am puzzled and slightly unhappy.
I got a telling off by a church parent because we opened the doors to dream factory 5mins late - Oh Im so sorry, I thought maybe homelessness, war or child prostitution was a worse cosmic catastrophie but clearly I was wrong - Its opening doors to a comfy club 5mins late - terribly sorry. LADY! GET SOME PERSPECTIVE!!

Positive things though have been that a parent came up and thanked me for the work I have been doing with his sons age group, which I thought was lovely, as that doesnt happen often.
Had a great coffee and shopping trip with a young person yesterday after dream factory, Mmmm hot chocolate and shopping, what more can you do to unwind from the day. It was really great as I dont get to see her often so I was really encouraged with that.
This week sees the first week of our after school club at Cold Harbour Primary School. We are calling it Extream! and will start off as a taster session, to see how many people turn up, and what they think of it. So will have to think up some crafts, games and lessons for creation, as I think thats a good a place to start as any!

So thats about it apart from the biggest thing i need to deal with this week... MY REVIEW, dun, dun, daaaaa. I have been assured that I am keeping my job, although I have had a run in with two of the people who will be speaking about me, but hey, stuff happens. Quite nervous as they will be speaking about me to my boss with me in the room, guess its kinda like parents evening, but with my job on the line -Eeeek.

Some thing to look forward to iS the childrens ministry conference that is happening this weekend - should be fab - Eastbourne in the winter, great stuff!!hehe, love these things, get loads of freebies! lol

So thats the low down on my adventures this month so far in bletchley.

Will try and update more regularly!!
