Change Your Life Today
Had a mini-tantrum on Friday about how miserable and bored I am, and decided to do something about it. Went on a mini-rant about changing my life and not taking any more shit off people in a professional or legal context when I NEVER take shit off people in any other context. Riding this wave of confidence and assertiveness, I emailed The Boss to say I want to meet with her this week to discuss my role, and emailed the executor of the will (re The Money) to ask what (the hell) is going on.
Then had a wonderful weekend with Him which mainly involved lying around in bed, watching DVDs, fighting crime, and eating Mexican food. Couldn't have been better. Came into work today with a spring in my step and smile on my face, despite the grey shittiness of the weather.
Then, upon opening my inbox, found an email from The Boss saying she wants to meet with me this afternoon, and an email from the executor saying everything is nearly finalised, but in the meantime the solicitor can forward £X000 as an interim payment straight away.
Fuck me, this whole 'proactive' thing doesn't half start working quickly...

Hooray!
I find i get the most from life when I am on a positive assertion trip. Keep it up .. use positive assertive language .. e.g. rather than "please can I" use "I am going to". Rather than "I was thinking we could" use "we are going to". Never use negative language - never say "don't hesitate to contact me" and always use "feel free to contact me"... that mindset has got me far at work ...
Lecture over. Much Love.

PS No update from Jellie on the Granny Perfume Band yet. Mmm.

Thank you honey. I am notoriously crap at the whole work thing, so all advice much appreciated!
I think Jellie's cross with us for rubbishing her bad granny perfume name...

Hello. I'm not dead and I appreciate your (semi)constructive advice re said band name. Have had to grudgingly admit that the two of you are right, as usual.
I have been in weird temping twilight world with no internet or even an email address that I can use - hadn't realised how horribly technology-ish I'd become.
However...drum roll, please, Keith...this is now due to come to a lovely end as I have been offered exciting permanent job today, which I shall enlighten you both about individually. Hurrah for me. And you. xxx
