I didn’t know what form this blog was going to take and, of course, the only way to find out was to just do it.

But I find I’m just not doing it. It’s not for lack of subject matter nor time. There are innumerable areas of interest in care work all worthy of mention. But I find I am simply not moved to.  

When I am working I more often than not find myself in a state of flow, where I lose all sense of self and am just being in the moment of whatever is happening. It appears that the work itself is enough for me and needs no further attention or expression.

The irony of starting a blog about my work just as I’m about to go on holiday is not lost on me.

Tomorrow my wife and I are going back to visit old friends where we used to live. I’m also going to be paying a visit to a woman I used to support who now lives on her own and also a whole bunch of guys and gals I used to support who all live on one residential site.

I can’t wait, I’m really excited. I know it’s going to be a lot of fun 😀

Back to work next week…

So I’ve started a blog about my care and support work.

I don’t know what form it will take but the only way to find out is just do it.
