@matigo it’s really not. It feels quite different around here already.
So as it turns out, today is the sad day. We’ve had to bring in the vet tonight. I’m out of sight getting all the tears out now so no one else has to see. RIP Lily, despite many obstacles along the way you’ve had 19 years on this earth but now it’s time to be with Lucy and all the others.
As most people know, I look forward to Friday’s more than any other day of the week. Probably because I use my weekend to just relax, whether it be with housework or gaming or hanging out with mates.
This Friday however is going to be a sad day. I’m house sitting over the weekend while my sister is away and while I’m looking forward to the alone time there’s something that will feel a little different.
When I walk back into my house, our little four legged friend won’t be there. Over the last few months she has deteriorated quite badly to the point where we have to get the home vet in.
So if I’m quiet this week, just know I’m ok but I’m taking time out for me.
@joeo10 Yeah, I was definitely not motivated to do much today that’s for sure. Tomorrow may be more productive.
Back to work Tuesday. Somehow it feels like a Monday. Only difference is more people on the train now that kids are back at school.
@matigo Here's hoping. If not permanent, then something more long term would work.
The reality of looking for another job will hit me this week. After a work colleague and I were talking last week about when our end dates were, he turned to my manager and said 'What, you can't keep her?'. Her response was 'I'd like to but I can't.' Not only is that confirmation I'm doing a good job but it's also certainty enough for me to know I won't be extended past April 6. Most likely due to budget restrictions than anything else.
Job hunting here we come… again.
Well that's done. I had to do an account of a nasty phone call I had during the week before I hit the day job tomorrow. I'd written a lot of what happened in my journal that night so it didn't take much. I just would much prefer to see the situation for what it is, learn from it and move on. This person will more than likely get a warning but at least it's something.
