Good to hear your update with the good news. It may not be exactly what you’re aiming for, but I’m sure it’s good to have somewhere to go each day. I was in your shoes a year ago and understand completely what a gut punch it can be. Things will get better.

@Gerry: Thanks Gerry. I am really surprised about how much it has knocked me out, I didn’t see that coming. But all is fine now :)

@pedro: thank you. It is good to be back at work, and let’s see what happens.

@Anne: Tusind tak skal du have! Og jeg haaber paa en forlaengelse, men hvis ikke saa har jeg i hvert fald faaet lidt mere erfaring igen. Jeg skal tilbringe julen i Holland sammen med min mor! :) Det bliver godt at slappe lidt af med familien. Bedste hilsner til dig ogsaa!

@vanillasky: indeed, it is a stepping stone, and the money in the bank is very useful too indeed. And I don’t think I have ever left anything on the plane before! Silly. Good thing it was a fresh notebook with not too many notes in it yet.

@Ispellit: Thank you!

Congrats on the job. Hope you’ll like it there and who knows, maybe they’ll like to keep you for longer so that you gain time to look for the perfect job. At least you got a pause from the stressful search.

Congratulations on the contracting job. That’s good news. It’s a stepping stone. It’s money in the bank. You never know it may lead to something else too. It’s good to see you blogging.

That’s very TE Lawrence leaving your notebook on a mode of transport!

How could losing your job not be a blow to the spirit… but hearing that optimism in your post is great! Congratulations on the position! Still sending good thoughts your way! I’m getting the feeling that good things will soon be coming your way! ;-)
