Day Twelve - Sadie, the cleaning lady… November 29, 2005
My plan for today was get all busy cleaning the house. I was going to start an hour ago. In fact, I did kind of start. I went and squirted cleaning stuff all over Mark’s shower and basin and the toilet, then I left it to ’stew’ for a bit. I’ll go back eventually.
I’ve decided not to see the financial adviser today. Since the redundancy is less likely than I thought it was I need rethink my strategy a bit. And the sense I got from the adviser when I spoke to him was that he would advise taking it anyway. Why would you say no to a fat pile of money when you’re reasonably certain you’ll get another job? I’m considering applying for the job, but making it very clear in the interview that I’m not thrilled and would be more happy leaving.
My other plans for today are shopping. I thought it might be kind of nice to go over to the Plaza and wander on my own. There’s some stuff I do need to buy/look at, but I also thought I’d just browse, without the big & little boys.
Sounds like a good plan. The best plans are made to be broken you know. We were going to clean the house top to bottom on the weekend. I think the dishes were done, then a miraculous phone call came through from DB’s sister and we took off for her place and ended up staying the whole weekend.
Sorry carpet, sorry floors, sorry sinks, sorry washing…
Enjoy your shopping before the shops get too too crazy.
