Deep End

As some of you may know I have just started a new job.
Its so perfect for me.
I am working in a Natural therapies environment as P.A to the owner. There is a shop and 2 clinics.
She is a clinical Hypnotherapist, who a few years ago decided to take it one step further and open a shop and then a clinic.
The business has grown faster than she could implement policies and procedures,so its a bit 'higgedly Piggedly' and she needs help.

I started just before Christmas and did 2 days training before becoming acting Clinic Manager and class coordinator while the wonderful woman who usually does this job was away on a much needed break.

My boss ( an ideas lady) mentions to me that we are doing a Street Fetival at the end of February.Its a communty Health and Happiness festival.She gives me a few things to do.............before I know it I am now coordinating a massive event with an expected turn out of 1000 people plus.

Ive organised sports clubs and dance groups and spinning wheel prizes,market stalls,first aid,pamphlets .........the list goes on.

Ive never done anything like this before. Its big.I am talking to a lot of people. Its sort of my baby.

At first I took it on with gusto.I still have gusto dont get me wrong but then suddenly it has grown to a size where its really quite major.Im proud of myself for finding out that I can do things like this.I am learning sooooooooooo much, but suddenly it seems so big that today I got quite scared.

I am responsible.

Watch this space.
