OH DEAR...... I hope I haven't caused unnecessary concern, sorry if I have.
I have kinda been in hiding as such, when I'm not feeling "right", I kinda go into solitude, (I call it batcaving), I stay in my batcave (heated bedroom in winter) to just quietly think my own thoughts without burdenning others.
It's winter here, I work alone, finding it difficult to be the entertainer one on one 8 hours a day .... and am in desperate need of a holiday ....... (not being funny), but it's almost like I have PMT everyday at the moment.
Winter here is quite odd, many people find it difficult to adjust, including clients. Lately they have been stretching out their appointments ..... some by 2 weeks or more. I find myself ressurecting nails rather than refilling (which stresses me to the max) working to a strict timeframe with so much work to do ...... yep, I have sacked a few clients lately.
I like my work to be respected (and at the moment I feel it's not). It's unusual for me to feel dissilusioned .... but hey, I guess I'm only human.
When I'm not at the salon I'm almost an Introvert these days, just last week I thought I was suffering from agoraphobia and the only place I feel safe is the salon ...... but I'm disliking some of my clients also (go figure).
Perhaps it's menopause, nailpause, geekpause or just plain stress? I'm not sure. Maybe I'm going mad (madder)? It's difficult to explain where I am and what I feel at the moment. I hope some of you may understand where i'm coming from ...... but then again I hope you don't (i'm in a strange place) and feel I'm treading water. Perhaps professional help is in order? At least I'm aware of how I'm feeling.
Sounds strange huh? I'm just trying to honestly explain myself, my actions and my feelings. Hope it's not to heavy for you.
Checking this post made laugh out loud (the dog thinks I'm mad).
Bagpuss ..... your nails are coming along nicely (although they would look better a sports length), you should be getting a call from Footballers Wives production team any day now.
The Becks pix worked a treat too (he's coming downunder shortly).
Anyways, thanks again for the messages (and for making me feel better)
