All change
My life is in a state of flux at the moment. I think I can safely put this out on to the blogosphere because the choices are made and everyone who has to know now knows. Anyway, so here goes. I have decided to leave Robin Simon and join an American firm called Crowell & Moring. I have been very happy at RSL and I am very sad to leave, especially when I have just officially qualified as a solicitor and I have been involved in some really great cases. However, I know this is the right move for me at this time in my career and it will put me in a place where I will have more choices, especially if J and I ever decide we do want to move to the US. But it doesn't make it any easier to leave the comfort and safety of my friends and career at RSL! Luckily, this opportunity arose because one of the partners from RSL decided she needed a change and she is now at Crowell. It was through her that I started the interview process and was offered the job. It is a fantastic opportunity for me and I am getting very excited. RSL have also been very supportive. Although they are sad to see me go, all the partners seem to agree that this is the right thing for me to be doing and have told me that if doesn't work out they want me back asap! Always good to know and I am so glad that I have not had to burn any bridges with such a great bunch of people.
What with a new job and a new house (which we are signing the paperwork on on Friday so we should be moving in by mid-October) it is all change for Mr and Mrs A-S. It's good to have change though. It keeps life interesting and stops us from getting into ruts. So I know these changes will be great for us and our relationship. We always say that we can get through everything as long as we have each other and I am so grateful for the support and love J gives me everyday!
Speaking of J - he is the lead part in a play being put on by our drama society next week! The play is all about his character, who is an adopted son who learns that his biological mother lives next door! It's set in the 80s and was written by one of our am dram colleagues and I must say it is a great script! Anyone interested in it can take a look here. Or see J's announcement/group thing on Facebook. We'll post pics of him in his fab 80s costume and makeup next week.
P.S. Congrats to M&M and my new baby niece OJP! We love you guys!!!!!
