Finally
Finally my solicitor got around to writing to tell me that indeed, my divorce was granted on the 29th of June. Nice of them to let me know at last.
So in other words...
Hurray!!!
Must sort out the party...
Been offered a job too. But I am not going to take it because it's on the other side of London and will be even further once I move house - on a good day it would be an hour and a quarter each way and you know what? Life is too short. Particularly with the current state of London transport.
There's another potential interview tomorrow and a test to do for another job. Prospects, as they say.
Meanwhile I'm watching a programme about Paris and lusting...it's another one of those places to be reclaimed. Can't wait!

The cake gave me a real chuckle! Congratulations (if that's not in bad taste - I'm not sure what the correct etiquette should be in such instances!).

A free woman, well I bet you're glad it's done and dusted and in the past. You're definitely right to turn down the job with that kind of commute life is definitely too short to suffer the misery of long london transport journeys! Good luck with the other jobs - hold out for the right one!!

way to go girl! you've been through an awful lot over the last few months, but now you are out the other side and ready to take on the world. good luck with finding the right job - who on earth needs one so far from home, especially your new home?

good luck!
With everything, job, life. Yes especially life. Carpe diem and all that.
