probably should be more than it is, but I'm not getting really excited until tomorrow night. For such is the joy of my working life that I could be finishing tomorrow or the day after, the jury's out temporarily. I don't mind which, other than I've stated firmly I want to know before I come home tomorrow night. Because I'm not travelling into work the day after to find there is none!
So either tomorrow or the day after sees the end of what has been Quite a Year!! In more ways than one!
This time last year I was surrounded by packing boxes, not sure of anything except change was going to happen. There have been more changes than even I had imagined, more moving than I wanted, and more uncertainty than is really good for me.
This time this year... well, there's still loads of change in the offing, I have no real idea about what paid employment will be like after the end of this week, I've no idea how long I'm likely to be living where I am - it's likely to be the next few years, but could be only another few months. But, the change in me is huge. I'm much, much more settled, and feel as if I'm becoming the person I've always thought I was meant to be, not the one I was in danger of becoming.
I will temporarily be returning to the world I've left. I'm not certain at the moment if it's a good idea, several of my friends think I'm completely mad. Only one understands why I'm doing it! I'm doing it because it's the right thing to do, it's what I would've been doing around now if I'd not chosen a different path, and this will be an appropriate way of rounding off that period of my life. I'm glad that there is clarity about one major issue that hadn't been particularly clear until about a fortnight ago, that will make the few days so much easier. There's no "technical" status about it now, it is definite.
Hopefully, by the time I return, some of the day to day uncertainties will have cleared up!
