Storm Coming


Good times, noodle salad.

Last day of work today. Hurrah? It seems strange to be leaving, especially leaving with nothing to go onto at the moment.

It did make me think though of what I have now decided was my best job ever. I only did it for three days so this might not be an entirely objective view but still... it was working in the post room of a large office. All I did all day was sort and deliver post, both internal and external. I got to go walking round the office with a trolley, and the best thing about it was that you knew exactly what you had to do, and exactly when you had to do it.

Good times, there was no noodle salad, that's a line from a film.

It's only been 3 months

It's only been three months, but since I had only logged in once previously using my new shiny google account I, of course, couldn't remember either my username or password.

There seems to be so much change at the moment, and I feel like I'm struggling to keep up. Getting married, moving to London, leaving a job in Liverpool, finding a job in Liverpool, finding a job in London, moving church for 3 or 4 months and then moving again.

This is not a complaint, it's an exciting time in my life and I am particularly looking forward to being married. Moving to London is a huge opportunity and a chance to find a job that will use the skills I have gained from Creative Training and hopefully be directed more towards my natural strengths. I'm looking forward to being closer to my family and being able to see them for a day, or even an evening rather than the current 200+ mile journey.

There is undeniable sadness involved as well. Pretty much everything that has been constant in my life over the past 8 years or so will change. Last week I left the Tab, my only real church family so far and I will miss being a part of that family. This week I finish at Creative Training, and though this year has been a lot harder than the first, it has been a good experience. It will be strange as well, moving from somewhere that I am blessed with having so many good friends to a new city to start again.

When I last posted, I wasn't engaged, wasn't planning to leave CT, still at the Tab, Beko hadn't been offered a job in London. Who knows what will have happened in another three?
