IT’S A GO!
ROLLING OUT THE ‘NEW NORMAL’
At the beginning of lockdown I was often overheard saying to Ingrid how I was looking forward to the quieter days – time to reflect, think carefully, be creative and find new directions for Thrive and all things skills. Time to read those books I’ve been putting off and explore the Netflix documentaries I find curious.
I’m writing this with a smirk on my face – how naïve I was! Just a few months ago, the world seemed like a very different place. And, although school runs, traffic and, overly long coffee break chats have given way to dishes, fallen leaves, and home-schooling – there just never seems to be enough hours in the day.
Re-adjust we must! The economy is waking from its slumber, Seta doors are starting to open, SDP‘s can re-open, infections are closer to home, and panic has given way to mild inconvenience when yet another store closes for deep cleaning.
And with renewed energy, I’ve never been more committed or enthusiastic to get this show on the road (safely) again. Let’s do this!
Stay safe & warm Thrive Tribe! Yours in skills,
Andrea
