Funny you should mention the towels, as I only happened to look at the forum today and saw your new title.
What part of "Live the better life" doesn't anyone understand by now? The MLCers and Xs or whatever they are just don't get it. We are all wonderful people who have been left in the dust of a crisis we didn't ask for and couldn't avoid.
But ... if we learn one of the important lessons in all of this ... Live The Better Life ... it will come to us when we are ready for it. You have certainly been preparing and working your tail off to have it, and now it is heading your way. I am certain it only gets better for you from here and I'm very glad to have checked in and seen the news.
Some of it may be a bit confusing to me, as you are now involved in an extended period of giving notice, yet working on while they do additional checks. I just hope that doesn't mean the new position is at risk in any way now that you gave notice. Sounds like both jobs are with same firm in some way, and they know what they are doing as you move along. I trust it is all more clear to you and that is all that counts.
Congrats on the good news!!! And the towels are currently being warmed for your convenience, so soak away and relax.
