Default I was looking for a job and then I found a job...

...and heaven knows I'm very pleased but also somewhat apprehensive at the prospect of returning to the workplace, and all the interaction that comes therewith, after an absence of 5 years. But on the whole - yay!

You win.

Yeah, the scary part of getting is job is that you have to actually turn up and work there. That's still to come...

Congrats! This gives me hope since I've had a 4 year absence from working. I hope it all goes well for you!

More good news - I thought it was a part time post but turns out it's full time. This means more hassle with childcare shennanigans but that's what normal people do, right? And I do so want to be one of the normal people.
