My two best girls left my office this week.
Sam - my listener, my confidante, my calming influence, and the only girl who enjoys talking camera gear as much as I do.
Claire - my partner in crime, my educator in all things creative, and the only girl who gets as excited about an abandoned pram as I do.
Knowing these girls would be in the office when I arrived at work (well, knowing Claire was at least on her way in because mornings aren’t her strong point) made work something to look forward to.
Sam’s having a baby and I’m more or less convinced is going to be the best mum I’ve ever known - I don’t think I’ve ever seen her fazed by anything, ever. Claire is going to Australia as that’s where her family are and I know she aches to be with them. I’m so happy for them both, but of course I’m sad they won’t be in my life in quite the same way.
I’m leaving too, the week after next - this won’t be quite so hard now, as saying goodbye to these ladies was the hardest bit.
Change is of course the only thing that can be relied on in life - “The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance”.
So, I guess I’ll see you on Skype ladies! xx
