Thanks for the words. Nothing is definite on the job front and, in Italy, nothing is real until it is definite – it was just nice to be asked really.
There were some downsides to the job which doesn’t pay enough so, perhaps, it’s just as well.
As for V, the big day is today – in fact, more or less, as I write this! Fingers and everything else crossed but I’m sure everything will be fine in the end.

But the prospect of perhaps having two new jobs to choose from sounds very good. And I know from personal experience how frustrating it is knowing that someone wants to hire you but can’t afford you. I was in that exact position about 7 years ago.

Ya, job changes. Both exciting and exhausting, I think. There is a ‘list’ of the five major stressors, 1-death of loved one, 2- divorce – 3- losing or changing jobs, 4 – moving, and 5 – illness. I think illness might actually be 2nd.
Hope ‘V’s’ time in the U K has elements of comfort, to cushion the situation(s) involved. And you too Andy, hoping you have moments of comfort and peace too.
Life is like sailing, sometimes one has to hold on to the mast, and at times it is smooth.

Love and prayers from across the pond,
Gail
peace…..
