Nah, not Super Women, my packing methods would not have met the international standards of any packing association, thats for sure! One the the hardest parts was taking all my designer suits and rolling them into a garbage bag. One of the best parts was taking them out the other end and seeing they did not look too worse for the experience.
I am not actively looking for work right now, although the longer I leave it, the harder it will be to buy a house again later. Yep, toddlers have found all the changes pretty hard although would come through ok if they were not about to have to deal with living in two houses. My youngest in particular will find this hard and is still at home full time.
I will start going to networking meetings in my industry to get my contacts back up in the interim. My industry is not at all family friendly, so are currently identifying companies where I might get some flexibilty. I did pass on one CV and have been asked to attend a follow up meeting, so that was an ego booster, but not sure what the work is and right now would prefer to be there for the toddlers till the dust settles. I have also lined up a live in nanny (family friend toddlers know) for my first three months when I do work again, that would cost about one day work a week with free board, so looking for various solutions for when the time is right. It will also depend on how much H actually has the kids, compared to how much he says he will have them. That will become clearer in a few months!
