Changes ahead


Following a busy and slightly hectic weekend, Nick and I headed into our respective offices hoping for a nice relaxing day and a slightly more gentle start to the week. For me this was all looking possible to begin with. Emails were being ploughed through; calls were being scheduled for later in the week to make Monday nice and manageable. And then Nick had a quick team meeting in his office before the Big Boss Man arrives in Singapore for a week this evening, and everything changed.
            We had our own little life plan lined up following our wedding this December. One more spring out in Singapore and then a shift back to London, ready for house buying and life setting up by next summer.
            What we didn’t count on was the head of Nick’s desk handing in his notice to move back home this December, and another of the boys following quickly after to be back in time for the birth of his first baby.
            Where this leaves us, we’re not quick sure. Here for longer seems like the most likely result, but with the Big Boss Man not landing until this evening, and with a week of meetings and planning sessions to follow, the wait starts here I guess…In the meantime I will just do what I had planned – keep on ploughing through my work, keep on veggie cramming and keep on heading to the gym whenever there’s a spare hour in the day.
