I've accepted the Dubai job! I met with my new employers in their UK office so for now I'll be here but I'll be moving to Dubai on the 4th of Septemmber. It seems too fast as its just 48 hours since I first spoke to them but I suppose I'm only feeling that because it's a job abroad. It would be the same if I had been offered a job in the UK. It feels kind of amazing actually. I think its because I've worked there before and know the culture, language and the company really well. I've already got a place there and my tenants are leaving mid October so I'll be staying with family until then. That will give me time to get my drivers licence sorted out and settle in as I don't want to rely on cabs or family too much. I'm lucky that my relatives only live about a 10 min walk away from the offices but in the desert heat that's a lot.
I know some people who are already at the Dubai office and have been skyping with them a lot over the last 2 days. They are a lovely bunch and many expats. I'm also lucky that I don't need to worry about my uk home as I don't own one here so no hassle about finding tenants. My phone contract runs out soon so I'm not losing out too much. There's so much to cancel, sort out that in a way it's going to help with my diet especially with my DOWN DAYS cos I'll be so busy. I'll still try and post my weight weekly of I can. Today I'm still 4lbs down but I'm glad I'm on juddd as I don't think I could've coped doing a vlcd during this as I need energy! My new workplace has a huge gym and swimming pool as does my apartment so I'll have no excuses to not go to the gym.
Off to the sunshine! Lol x x x
