Oh .. and in other news....

I have a new job! Though don't start for a month as I wanted to give my current boss as much of a chance as possible to replace me before I go.

The new job is similar-ish to what I do now, but it's only 10 minutes from home. I may even be able to ride to work when the weather is amenable (but I'll have to check if there's a shower there first!)

Salary is lower than I get now but after three months, and with the new tax breaks coming into effect on 1 July I'll be earning the same as I do now.

For me these days, life is more about balance, and I certainly can do without sitting in my car for about one and a half hours every day getting to and from work.

It was difficult handing in my notice; I've never had to do that *ever* before.

So, it's into the unknown for me come 2 July - fingers crossed that it works out.

I found it!! It's me here and I couldn't figure out where your blog had gone. Now I have to quit my job to read all your archives so can I come work at your new place of employment? Congratulations!!

And I'm totally with you on the "balance" thing too. It's the only way to stay in the game I think.
