What do you all do?

[ladybird_gal]

What an incredibly diverse group of people we are! Between us we could probably do a jolly good job of running the country!! I teach and am just about to begin (in September) working reduced hours after many years full time. I can't wait! x x

Can I be Chancellor of the Exchequer? I was a Purchasing Manager for eight years. Then I went back to college to learn Holistic Therapies - maybe I could be Health Secretary (perhaps I'd better leave that job to Fairyring or Topsy)
Now I'm retired and have never worked so hard in my life! I/we look after our granddaughters three days a week and on the remaining days I fly around like a lunatic trying to get everything else done.
Anyone for an Indian Head Massage? Mxx

Hi,
I'm still not sure what i want to do when i grow up. I'm only 42 years young plenty of time yet LOL

Had a few part time jobs mainly in retail. I have just completed my adult literacy level 1&2 and adult numeracy part 1 and working on level 2. Got my CSE in school but thought i would brush up on these. Glad I did my support worker said I'd be good teaching others and she has put my name down to join her.
I have no confidence due to my weight so hope when i have lost some weight I will find something i want to do.
