I'm feeling pretty down today. Just not quite with it either in myself, in my head or about much - I am just hoping that I cheer myself up a bit later on.
The next few weeks are all a bit uncertain and not really planned in any way and that always leaves me a bit flummoxed. I suppose I just need to take some sort of control over proceedings and perhaps do a bit of leading here especially in finding and bedding in my replacement at the charity. That will be a good start as there is a fair bit to be done in the next few months and time just isn't on my side at all.
I need to get clear in my head when I am actually leaving and being retained is all well and good but that needs to be set onto a secure footing. Perhaps I can put my mind to that too?
I can see that to get clear and ready to run with my colleague on our new venture is also a paramount goal too.
I just need to shake off my current gloomy outlook and sort myself out a bit.
On a lighter note my application to become a Freeman of the City of London has just arrived and I need to complete that and get it sent back to my sponsor. As far as I can tell you have to go back 16 generations to find one of my predecessors who was a Freeman of the City. Something to look forward to there.

sounds good being a freeman of the city
but what does it mean
I KNOW NOTHING
Hi have a look at this link which explains it better than I can
http://www.cityoflondon.gov.uk/Corporation/LGNL_Services/Leisure_and_culture/Local_history_and_heritage/Freedom_of_City/
"The medieval term 'freeman' meant someone who was not the property of a feudal lord, but enjoyed privileges such as the right to earn money and own land. Town dwellers who were protected by the charter of their town or city were often free - hence the term 'freedom of the City'." I hope that helps - a bit :-)
