Chez Spud

I’m a great believer in what will be will be, what goes around comes around and that it all works out for the best in the end. I also believe that we are never given more than we can bear, but that’s a whole different post. Also, I believe that men forgive and forget while women forgive…but they never forget. Ever. Or is that just me?

But today I’m mainly believing in the power of serendipity combined with a dose of things always working out for the best. I’ve had a work ‘thing’ kicking about that’s been eating away at me for a while – I can’t say too much but one of those ‘oh look! An attractive job offer out of nowhere…should I take the money and run or stay and try to negotiate better pay?’ I gave the latter a try and thought I could get it to work. Didn’t work out and, on the day the new job offer all came together I was ‘exited’ by the old job. Kind of a weird feeling but equally it took the ‘stay or go’ decision out of my hands. Serendipity, that’s what I like to call it. So much more elegant than ‘I asked for a pay rise and they fired me’….

On a more positive note I have finally found a web designer to overhaul Chez Spud. Hopefully she won’t disappear half way through the project like the first one did, plus she actually bothered responding to my request for a quote unlike some others. What’s so wonderful is that she is first web designer that I approached back in June. She couldn’t help at that point and I was so disappointed, but she helpfully gave me a list of other people to try. I tried, I failed with them all. I went back to her in the vain hope she was working again…no response (she was on holiday). Then, on the day I heavily hearted started researching wordpress designers yet again, she got in touch to say she was working again, her schedule was open and was I still looking for a designer? Serendipity again? I like to think so.

So the sickly looking butterflies are getting the sack. You’re fired! You’re in good company…
