On holidays or Unemployed?

This week has been a good week so far.

Monday was my last day at work. Now I am officially unemployed. Am I worried? Not at all. It is a major relief. I had a lovely lunch with one of my favourite people from the office. I am never quite sure how to take him. Mostly I don't take what he say's seriously. Anyway he has asked me to go to lunch with him again in 6months time. I bet he forgets. Quite a few people forgot it was my last day and left without saying good bye. Oh well, it was probably better that way. I said goodbye to the people that mattered to me. That chapter is now closed.

Tuesday, woke early, the kids still need to get to school. I went to the gym after they left. Yay! I can take as much time as I like now. Came home showered then P & I went to look at new cars. This was fun. I was a little nervous at first test driving new cars. Okay, I have always loved my old car. Betty. I have had her for over 15 years, in that time she has never let me down. *sigh* she leaks but only when it's raining, the interior light hasn't worked for years, I can't play music, the paint is faded, there are signs of rust, but she has never broken down. I did fall in love with the first car I test drove, a VW Golf, so comfortable, purred like a kitten, such a cute dash. The second car a Subaru Impreza. Very nice indeed, not quite so comfortable, not quite so cute... but far more practical...grizzle grizzle...we went for practical. I am still excited about my new car. If only I hadn't looked at the Golf. In the afternoon I had an interview. It went well, I think, just with an agent. I'm getting my name out there.

Wednesday, same as. kids, gym, then I tried to settle into doing a few chores at home. I was like a chook with my head cut off. All over the place. The weather has been lovely. I was just restless.

Thursday, gym again. I am going to be so fit! A little shoping, then back home to meet P for a date. We drove into the city to see the Archibald Price portraits.

We had a lovely time, several paintings for me stood out. After the gallery we had a lovely lunch in the botanical gardens.

At this stage it feels like I'm on holidays. No rush to be anywhere. Soon I'll start to worry about finding work. It won't be this week. Maybe next week. :)
