Today was my last day at work. I knew it was going to be quite odd, as this would probably be the first time that it actually sunk in that I was leaving. What I hadn't banked on, though, was the way the day turned out. From first thing this morning, when I unlocked the office door to find my desk bestrewn with balloons, sprinkly things, banners and a very large chocolate cake I've spent the day amazed at my colleagues' fantastic-ness. I did rather start to wonder what on earth I was doing leaving when people were being as nice to me as this. So, I now have a whole series of cards, appreciative emails and gifts. And I've used up a whole series of tissues. Goodness knows how I'm going to cope saying goodbye (or 'see you soon' - which turned out to bbe easier to deal with, if maybe a bit hopeful) to church people, and some of my really close friends. Maybe I should have bought more tissues when I went to Tesco earlier.
In other news, I have now filled two boxes with books. Whilst this is better than none, I really should get on with a few more tomorrow - before Lemly carries out her threat and starts 'helping' me.
