Lately I have been writing a little more about my spiritual journey than about the steps I have taken in the real world. I was preparing for the arrival of “Point of no return”, then “I quit”, “My first job application” happened. Then for almost a month I have not mentioned anything else that happened.
Perhaps the reason for this is that the tasks were collected in the past, and their implementation will become tasks in the near future.
But things are happening quietly.
Job Search
This is my most important task. I look at the job offers on the collected sites with great zeal, and I have already applied for several job opportunities. I have not received any feedback from anywhere, but based on my experience so far, I consider this natural. The Nomad Cruise feedback was promised “in two weeks”, which is tomorrow by the way. I really want to do that job, so I am waiting for the feedback with a good kind of excitement.
The next few weeks will be about your search. I will definitely have a post about the first feedback as well!
Vaccinations
I checked in at the vaccination center today. I had an appointment for tomorrow, but – I’ll explain why – I don’t have a car right now. So tomorrow would have been uncertain in terms of travel. Plus, we agreed with “My friend, Pista” for tomorrow to come to me and start designing his website together under his newly registered domain.
So, I’m going to the vaccination center next Wednesday. Based on today’s phone conversation, I might get all my vaccinations that day. I might arrive home like a piece of cheese that day, I’m assuming about seven vaccinations in advance.
International driving license
I tried to get started on this matter today, but unfortunately I’m experiencing for the thousandth time how impotent the Hungarian national administrative system is. I have to go to the government window for this maneuver. I almost checked in, but then I remembered that I don’t have my ID photo, so I still have to take care of that. I think I’ll solve this next week when I go into town for the vaccinations anyway.
Car sales
I took my car to the service station on Monday. Its technical license expires in May, but I would like to see the Toyota on the market in May. The car has been in the service station since yesterday, maybe I will get it back tomorrow. On Monday, the IT system of the technical exam handed over the key, today the mechanic was snowed in, maybe tomorrow I will have a valid technical license.
My younger brother gave me a complete exterior and interior cleaning of the car for my birthday. On Monday, I called the specialist, with whom we agreed to agree on a specific date for the cleaning tomorrow, which is certain that it will only be possible in May. No problem, one of the watchwords of these months is patience anyway.
Once the car is shining, my older daughter will take pictures of it in a nice location that has already been selected. She has the knowledge and professional camera to take beautiful pictures of the sparklingly clean car.
I already know the starting price of the car, all the technical data for the ad is ready, so with the photos in hand I immediately start advertising my – for a long time – last car.
In my heart I am already at the point where I am no longer a car owner.
Assets to sell
My guitar amp is sold, I had a bad offer for the guitar, my effects have a new owner, we just argued about the price today. I have a sauna to sell, and maybe a serious treadmill. The used goods market is slow, but there is nothing urgent here either. Fortunately, I am not selling them because I need money, but simply so that they are not in anyone’s way. Also, they are worth more to me in money than as a memory tucked away in a corner, thousands of kilometers away.
My laptop has only received fake applications, I will probably lower the price.
I still have to work seriously on this task.
Accommodation in Koh Samui
I have been looking at the rental properties page in the past few days. I see the same properties as I did months ago. This may give me some reason to worry, but of course I am not worried about it either. Isn’t the supply so constant because no one wants to rent these apartments? In any case, I was glad that the apartment with the pool was still there…
Work related
This is not strictly related to the topic, but it is important in that I have the date of my last day at work. Considering the holidays that are due so far, home office options, the number of vacation days that have been posted and not yet posted, I have already started the countdown. Since it is past midnight, the exact number: I will be going to this workplace 29 more times.
We are working on the project that I took into account when timing my resignation. We will soon be over the first phase of our EU NIS2 audit. The second phase will be in November, so no matter how loyal I am to my employer, I could not wait for this.
A week after my resignation, one of my colleagues also resigned. There is no connection between our two jobs, it is a simple coincidence. So I may even have to choose a new colleague in the coming weeks.
So we have two vacant positions in the IT team, just saying.
Travel
On Friday, 16 of us from the family are traveling to Transylvania for four days. I’m really looking forward to spending a few days together in a beautiful place. We’ll be back home on Monday, and I’ll be flying to Milan on Friday. These two weeks will be very exciting. I mean, they are.
That’s the summary of what’s happening so far.
