It's Starting To Get Very Real....

As the final big piece of the puzzle to untangle myself from my current life falls into place, the realisation, and the excitement of the next adventure is oh so slowly creeping in.

I just sold my car, this morning! This sets me free!

I have also given notice at work a couple of weeks ago, and finish up at my job in 2.5 weeks. On Friday I said goodbye to one of my favourite clients (with one more to go in the coming week!), which was actually pretty tough. Always hard to let go of the ones you have worked through such a journey with!

My little house of the last 2 years has a For Lease sign out the front, and I have a final date for me to vacate. I have also posted online to try and sell my bigger furniture pieces, to save my poor Mum from having to store them for who knows how long!

I also got my tickets, and all the bits and pieces booked for my stopover on the way home, for my return to the West Indies for the cricket next month. I fly out on Good Friday for the 3 test series.

My plans after that trip, which is really to take a hard-earned break from my 5 year slog in my current job, and the added madness of part time uni studies for the past 2 and a half, is still not 100% locked in, but I need to complete a 3 month full time placement within the Social Work field. I am holding my breath and have my fingers crossed that this will be in a far away land...

The nerves are very present, about whether I am doing the right thing, giving up my job and heading off again. But I always counter that with the knowledge that know that I will always manage to find work in the mental health and welfare field. It's just the nerves about whether I have enough money to get me through almost 5 months of not working!

So, so excited to be doing something that feels very big, again!
