Resilience or keeping your head when life is mince

Sunday, 8 November 2009




Resilience is about bouncing back, like a rubber, bouncy ball that forgets when it bounces that anything stressful has just occurred. I have even attended a conference about resilience this weekend, so I have given this some thought.

Now, we are in our 'temporary' accommodation as there really is no ceiling in the bathroom of our normal flat. The new place is interesting, 'like being on holiday,' as Bobo remarked optimistically. Yes, it's like going on holiday somewhere cold, with no tv, where the curtains don't fully shut, the heating doesn't fully work, there is an oven but nothing to use to cook in it and happens to be located just 2 doors down from the woman who gave me an earful in March. The next couple of weeks should be interesting.....it appears I have nothing in common with that bouncing ball, other than the joys of snuggling on the sofa, listening to the BBC Asian network radio and eating my speciality, good old Scottish mince and tatties.
