I think we've got a final version of my settlement agreement. I just need to print it in the morning and check it properly. So early night, aiming for early morning yoga (need to put it in my calendar and make sure I set extra alarms) and then getting the paperwork done and out of the way so that they can make sure my PILON is in September's payroll (and hopefully the redundancy money before that via accounts payable). Then lots of gardening while it's still nice.
I'm off to bed now... well, after I've loaded the WM and put it on delay, made a hot water bottle and found a book to send me to sleep!9 -
