... and my heart is pulling me in opposite directions. On the one hand I'm immensely grateful that I no longer have to go through all that useless shit Boss Woman has put me through during the last decade and a half. That will be a delight.
On the other hand, I'm beginning to realise that I won't see my colleagues - most of whom I like very much - on a daily basis. My social life, such as it is, happened mostly at the workplace (unless LJ counts), and having that taken away will need a great deal of adjustment. I wish I had such long-time friends as Mum has, but my so-called friends only ever stayed in touch as long as they wanted something. I'll have to make conscious efforts not to become an hermit.
Fortunately, I'll remain a member of our choir, so that means meeting the girls twice a week, and that is something. But I had to confess that as much as I'm looking forward to leave Boss Woman and her tyranny behind me, I'm getting a tiny bit scared.
