Phase 2 complete, getting closer

Today was my last official day at work. I am now unemployed. The team were amazing and helpful and I'll miss them.

Mixed feelings but excitement is the main one bubbling up for change. Fear underneath with change and uncertainty.

I will feel the fear and do it anyway!

The kids have adapted so well and speak all three languages. Learnt so much. I still have dreams for village life with sea and or mountain views! A small but perfectly formed place for us to live. A place with a space or garden to play in and not worry about neighbours or losing the ball to a car! Although I think big open spaces are better for balls! Working on manifesting the right things for us. They say be careful what you wish for! Workwise, I couldn't have asked for a better boss in supporting me.
