Please don't let this be a prophecy....

My OH came home from work the other day and told me that one of his colleagues, a young good hearted woman, had taken him aside and said some very kind things about how the company was there to support him and really understood his needs blah blah blah.

Wow.

I was really truly touched.

It's not often people in the corporate world take time to say things like that and seem to really mean it. It gave me a warm happy glow and re-newed my hope in the world.

And then?

Erm, well today his boss took him aside and informed him that there appeared to be some kind of strange, rather mis-informed rumour going round the company and certain people were under the belief that......



(brace yourself)





I was about to die.


Gulp.


Excuse my language but WHAT. THE. F'CK.



So the woman that beckoned him into the office and said the nice things was actually talking about my imminent demise.

There now (apparently) needs to be some 'very delicate handling' of the situation the rumour is unpicked and people are gently corrected.

My life often takes a rather surreal turn (as you may well have noticed) but NEVER before has anything this, erm, 'odd' occured.

I'm not quite sure what to make of this but one thing is for certain, I won't be popping into the office for lunch next week.....

    Where on earth did they get this idea? What has your hubby been saying? Sorry if I'm stepping on toes here and he actually hasn't said anything.
    Look forward to seeing how you get out of this one.
    Hugs, sparkles and love,

  3. Could someone have overheard half a conversation where you were wanting to kill one of the neighbours or "leaders" from the ill-fated playgroup and your OH was trying to talk you out of it?!
