Bees and mushrooms

Posted on July 8, 2016 by thepogblog

This has been the loooooongest week.  Earlier on I told someone about a meeting I had ‘a few weeks back’ and looked at my notes to discover the meeting was on Wednesday.  The Wednesday that happened two days ago. I’ve just … Continue reading →

Professional Pog tried. Professional Pog failed.

Posted on June 3, 2016 by thepogblog

Hooray!  I have done my first week – well, four days –  in my new job and they’ve not said they’re getting rid of me yet.  All other aspects haven’t gone quite to plan though. You know I was going … Continue reading →

Mirror, mirror on the wall…

Posted on February 23, 2016 by thepogblog

I think I probably look in the mirror as much as the next person.  You know….to check that I don’t have food in my teeth, to make sure my mascara ended up where I was aiming for, to make sure … Continue reading →

Ooops. Big oops.

Posted on December 11, 2015 by thepogblog

Last night was the company Christmas party.  I am quite proud that nothing utterly disastrous happened.  I don’t have that nagging feeling that I should curl up under my duvet and never see any colleagues ever again – I can … Continue reading →

(Not a very good) Plumber Pog

Posted on July 21, 2015 by thepogblog

Last Monday I got back from my holiday.  Despite 30 hours of travelling and sleep snatched in 15minute bursts, totalling about 3 hours, I was wide awake when I arrived home.  I didn’t consider sleeping until 2.30am when I got … Continue reading →

First week of new job discoveries

Posted on November 21, 2014 by thepogblog

I’ve got through the first week in my new job, but it’s been…different.  I think the fact that I bought my first ever lottery ticket this week probably says quite a lot.  There was no ‘getting up to speed’.  No, … Continue reading →

Sisters are doin’ it for themselves…just about

Posted on November 18, 2014 by thepogblog

On Saturday I went on a car maintenance course.  Before I left home ‘Sisters Are Doing It For Themselves’ came on the radio, which seemed rather appropriate.  I sang along, feeling quite smug that I only really needed to learn … Continue reading →

Necklaces and noodles

Posted on October 7, 2014 by thepogblog

You know that phrase ‘dress for the job you want, not the job you have’?  Well, I’m rubbish at it.  Today I have been dressed in tracksuit bottoms, slippers and a snugly warm top, accessorised with a few soup stains.  … Continue reading →

A Bumpkinsville walk. In the dark.

Posted on January 21, 2014 by thepogblog

I love living in Bumpkinsville.  The only problem is that in such a small place, there aren’t that many other people around who I actually know, and without a child or a dog and with a full time job, it’s … Continue reading →

Not thinking things through

Posted on November 5, 2013 by thepogblog

You may have realised by now that I don’t always think thinks through. Like this Sunday when I walked into my bedroom and did a high pitched squeal as I discovered a dead body part way under my bed.  If … Continue reading →
