And I felt a rush like a rolling bolt of thunder

So, I was really late home from work tonight.     

Si was worried that I had left him. 

The boss decided to come and have a chat with me ...  

Chat?? at 1750???  

Do I get Overtime?   I don't think so.   

Did I get an iPad Air????  Pft did I heck as like. 

We chewed the fat, and had a giggle over a couple of incidents over the last month or so.    Typically involving me and my former inability to stop crying for more than 10 minutes.    It's nice that we can laugh about it now -  

He's the sort of guy who didn't let it faze him -  he's always been like that... "it will pass, chill". 

When I interviewed for this job, I had a phone interview - "just to get a feel for it, whether I liked the sound of the job, and whether we hit it off". 

The phone call lasted two and a half hours. 

A week later, we had a sit down interview, 3 hours.   Conversation ran from iPhones (iPad's werent' invented then), inherited madness (Glad we covered that one early), and Reiki.

And I started 6 weeks later. 

When I left the job I was in, I was bombarded with "they won't love you, like we love you... ", but my mind was set.  A new beginning.  

The "They won't love you as much as we do", continued for my first week.  

At the end of my first week, I was presented with a cake.... iced with 

"We Love Hel".

Which I photographed and sent a copy to my old work. 

I would like to take this opportunity to say I've NEVER HAD ANOTHER BLOODY CAKE.

Or an iPad Air. 


But I am looking forward to the celebrations for the Company's 10th Birthday, coinciding with my...6th Anniversary 


:-)

Love you
