Holiday!!

Well, I've actually finished work for Christmas - what a relief - I don't think it would be so tiring if I had known from the start I'd be working right through - but all the stopping and starting was a complete pain. So, two weeks off. Will be having a good old think about many many things in my life during that time. Had a bit of a heads up about a possible job today - won't get my hopes up too much, but my goodness it's much better paid than what I'm doing. Trouble is, I can see myself getting tied into this whole - got to stay for my pension thing. No, perhaps not for me. Would much rather work abroad or something I think.

Sailor is working hard at the moment - as he works outside a lot, he's a bit pissed off - cos it's really excessively cold at the moment. And also not really in the mood for naughtiness. Well, he was a bit today - let's hope we can change that in the new year, hmmmm? Still waiting to hear from the doc - maybe he's feeling guilty again - I do hope not - where's the harm??

You know, I really do feel like I need to sort out my financial situation somehow this year - not having any money certainly curtails your freedom you know - and now the kids are off my hands, I sure do want to be free! Talking to my mate today, who has set up a business selling on ebay - maybe my own business is the way to go ultimately. I know I had a conversation with another mate and we were discussing how hard it would be to set up on our own - not too hard we thought. And then there's working for myself. Some things to think on, isn't there? Not sure about a partnership though - can so often be a recipe for disaster.

But the point is, there's so many things I want to do, and places I want to see, and I need money and freedom to do that. And I'm not getting any younger - so want to stop working one day - maybe soon! So maybe that's actually the most important thing to think about these holidays. Leave the naughty thoughts alone for a while and actually get yourself sorted!! Food for thought, isn't it??
