The ties that bind
Well, there aren’t as many as there used to be. Since the cooling off period has expired, the house is now officially sold. I handed in my resignation at work on Monday and I finish on 19 December. Helen’s resignation went in the mail yesterday (she’s been on long-term parenting leave). The removalists are coming to pick up all our stuff in the days leading up to Christmas. Dates are being locked in. It’s happening. It’s really happening.
For Christmas and New Year (and probably most of, if not all of January) we will both be homeless and unemployed, although in reality we’ll be resting up in Brisbane with family before throwing ourselves into the next phase of life.
Weeeee!
For maybe the first time in my life, I’m committing myself to the great unknown where nothing is certain. It is scary and exciting at the same time.
May we all live in interesting times :-)
