Mrs Llama is being made redundant from her job! Usually that wouldn't be the top of the wish list but in this case I'm glad it has happened. Financially we will still be fine but holidays may be more local!
Over the last 18 months or so her job has become more stressful due to a change in manager at her shop (a travel agent). The new "manager" is so narcissistic that working there has become very stressful for Isobel. The manager makes changes but never does anything to contribute and takes credit for anything that gets done.
The last few months the pressure has increased because they have also been remotely working for a London office but the systems they have been using have never really worked properly. She is too conscientious for her own good. She got offered the chance to work from home (thought I might get a man shed in the garden but no ) but has declined as she doesn't like the work she has been doing - mainly corporate travel.
I think it will be great for her health and will give her a chance to spend time doing some things she wants to do and it will give us a chance to go for days out to places we've not really had the time to do. If she does want to go back to something after the garden leave that will be up to her.
At least when we get weather like this we can just stay in and no scary drives to the station.
