Nothing too Dramatic Happening at Present
Well, not too much has happened over the past 24 hours. I am a little bit more rested after my intensive week working on my promotion.
Funnily enough, I decided to go for this promotion because I did not feel particular appreciated where I work. By 'boss' tends to favour particular people and that has always something that I have accepted. But then I thought to myself...'hang on, I can do my job well... maybe I should go somewhere - where I get appreciated - and feel better about my efforts.'
Then, on the day my application was due - I had a bit of a discussion with my boss and she began to say really positive things about me. I was totally freaking out. She said that if I got the interview I would probably get the job!!!!
ANd I thought "what the hell???"
Anyway, I walked out of her office reconsidering whether I would put this application in. (as it would mean a move from my current workplace- and I loooove the people that i work with. I have a top team)
Then I saw my gorgeous friend and colleague Kate and she said - 'you are putting the application in!! You have to take the opportunity!!! You are ready!"
I did as she suggested. But honestly, my heart was pumping so fast when I sent in the application online. I was shaking. It is weird how the body reacts when things are unsure.
On other matters, Mum seems to be getting a little better. My hubby's chemo is taking a bit of a toll. I am getting worried about him. He seems down - which of course is understandable. He is not too keen on eating at the moment. That always worries me! (as I adore food!!) He is pale, very pale. But still, I am proud of him for coping as well as he has been. I know he is doing it for our family.
I try not to get too down. If he is putting on such a brave face, surely I can - right?
He has not had a sense of smell for ages, years actually. Weirdly, his smell has come back since on chemo. BUT it has worked as a negative as even the dishwashing detergent 'lemon' smell can send him off to the bathroom pretty sick. Poor darling.
Well, I must be going!
Hope all is well with all of you guys!
