Looking for somebody.

I've decided to re-join the Soulmates webside, a year after I cancelled my previous subscription. Why? The last time generated no interest, so why should this time be any different? But a dear friend of mine said something the other week that made me decide to give it another go.

I can't remember the exact words she used, suffice to say that if you want your dreams to come true, then you have to do something about it. Love might find you, but you stand a better chance if you make yourself noticeable.

Well I've done it, and now I shall just wait and see if anyone's interested.

Time for change.

I've been quiet for some time now.

In the time I've been away, I lost my job. Well, losing my job, I still have two weeks left here. It was all amicable, the decision to close our office was entirely justifiable. To be honest we saw this coming 5 months ago.

Still, the pay off was more than I could have expected, and another company have taken me on. Which is nice, as they are all ex-employees of my current company, and we've worked together before. That takes care of the 'new boy' syndrome.

The only downside is the new role means that I won't get so much internet access during the week. The job is split between me working on the shopfloor, doing some assembling and packing, and upstairs in the sales office, doing admin work. Thankfully, in a year's time, there should be a permanent role opening in the office, which they had previously earmarked for me, but due to slight miscalculation, could not offer this year.

All in all, I am happy. Nervous, but happy. It will mean quite a lot of physical work, but that can only be a good thing.
