3 weeks?

I just realized that 2 months ago I posted about having 3 weeks left of the worst assignment ever. I misscalculated, obviously. My best guess now is that we have some 3 weeks more to go?

Trying to deal

I’m doing pull ups in my hotel room while listening to Harry Potter 5 (read by amazingly good Jim Dale)

Separation issues

I’m terrible at being away from my husband. I just can’t deal with it so I stop eating and making all the wrong choices. Like I didn’t have dinner last night, nor lunch today. But I’ve had two kit-kats. It’s obviously worse when I have to travel for work, but honestly I’m not that good [...]

From the beach

I’ve been exiled for a week in a smallish city in the south of Spain. It’s sunny and my room has a view of the sea. As much as I needed to work, I just had to take an evening for myself and actually shut down my laptop before 9 pm. First time in 4 [...]

Quitting

So I want to quit my job. Not today or tomorrow, but I’m taking the first steps. Getting a LinkedIn account. Rewriting my CV. Thinking about what I’d rather be doing. What I want to be doing in 5 years. It’s not so much quitting as it is taking the necessary steps to get to [...]

Babies & work

A girl in my family got married a few weeks before me. She’s three months pregnant now. She works for her father in law. I guess When thinking about getting pregnant, it helps to know you won’t get fired.

Navy suit

Today I’m wearing a navy suit that I got because a guest post on Corporette told me to. I love how it looks and I love that I know where to find that kind of advice.
