Ok, it isn't my last day forever, and I will be back, but for the foreseeable future, I won't be coming to work at The Times anymore, and that is a surreal feeling! I am excited to have a bit of a life-breather. I know, all you mothers out there are laughing into your sicky muslins, in the knowledge that having a baby isn't a breather in the slightest. But a change is as good as a rest, as they say, so it'll be nice to have a new pace to my life.
To not have to sit on the Bakerloo Line (and then the District and Circle) for close to two hours everyday is going to be an amazing relief. And then, there is the whole desk thing, that's been getting progressively more uncomfortable. From now on, I'm going to keep my legs stretched, my back extended, and generally be a lot more pleasant to be around.
It is sad leaving the job though. I love all my colleagues and the work is fun and stimulating. Ho hum, but I'll be back, under my new 'working mother' guise.
