Decisions Decisions

Sometimes things fall out of the sky when you least expect them. Like the job offer I just got from my old workplace...it's with a section I haven't worked with but the work seems interesting and it would be a casual term which means I wouldn't have an employment agency skimming off the top of my pay. I would get to set the time and how much time I would work per week and I might even be able to do some of it from home. It would be for February and March, with the possibility of more work if there's room for it in the 2007 budget, or if I wanted it. So...all in all it sounds pretty damn sweet.

So why is my heart pounding uncomfortably? I guess because it would mean starting as soon as possible and the main reason is leaving Tink of course. I need to speak with Sweet One and Whistler to see if they would be able to help us look after him. If we can't get anyone to look after Tink then it's not even a consideration. I'm kind of hoping that it won't work out, even though the money would be really helpful.

Sigh. This is a really big decision and I'm feeling really rushed. But the section manager is super nice and she thanked me a number of times for considering it. I don't feel any pressure to take it and I wouldn't feel badly in the future saying it wasn't working out, so what's the problem?

I know what the problem is - I would miss my baby. :( People do it all the time though, I'm sure I would be fine. Sniff sniff. I'll keep you updated.
