Well I guess retirement will have to wait for a bit. This morning I had a meeting with the new people running the company I work for and we discussed the position they had in mind for me and we also discussed the issue of salary. They didn’t match the figure I had given them but I had expected that. They did however make a good enough offer that I got a little excited and we had a good meeting. Everything came out well I believe so I’ve decided to take on the new position and postpone my retirement until another day. Yes it would have been nice to not have to go into work everyday but then it’s also nice to just leave your money in the bank to grow more for another day.

The new owners seem to be good and fair people interested in making things go and I’m excited about being picked as one to help make it happen and I’m looking forward to making a difference in the outcome of their scheme. I’m pumped and ready so until further notice….well you know, “so much for best laid plans”.

Sigh.
