January holidays 2011

Well I have spent a lot of time on the internet these holidays. Have been reading blogs by Mia Freeman and Sarah Wilson, such inspiring youg women witrh great ideas and  real social conscience.  I wish I knew how to add links to their pages but not too good on the technical side of this blogging yet.

Have also been watching a lot of Jamie Oliver's 30 minute meals - a great watch and I have even managed to replicate a few. Although where one finds Elderberry cordial in Australia is a mystery.

Jack back from Africa at  lunchtime today. Will be good to see him.

Have been working on the endless cleaning out of the garage and trying to de clutter. Phew hard work. very interested in why I have the need to clutter in the first place. Something I will go into more at some time.

No time to work on family history these hols unfortunately. I think I am close to a break through on the Dublin side but  need more time.

Back to work soon and a busy year as usual. Need to work out how to manage upwards a bit more and cope with the men who run the place. The glass ceiling is very much alive where I am. Not a great place for a woman to work but I will keep on plugging away.
