Was fun last time

I'm almost at the end of my evil life and will have free time a plenty soon.

I guess I'm really looking forward to being properly unemployed



Thats the great thing about studying - you get to a point where you're utterly unemployable!



I plan to retire before I find proper work

Budgie - I hope you're OK you're looking for another job aren't you?

I hope Sparkles that the studying/exams etc are going well?

Hi everyone!

All seems to be well on here atm which is a happy place

Studying wise last exam for yr of masters tomorrow and if I pass (find out in July) I can have a rest for the first time since Sept. Very hard work this and working full time. The first year has flown by though so I expect the 2nd year will do and then all completed in another 16mths!

Food will be back on track after this exam and back to normal meals and cooking after the revision stress melts away!

Good luck with the last exam sparkles!

Yes indeed Sparkles, you have worked so hard with all the studying plus going to do your normal job. I tell you mate it will be worth it in the end. But you do deserve a good rest now, look after yourself and take care. xxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hi Pippi glad to hear that the studing is almost over and you will be having more free time soon. Hope that you and your lovely family are all ok, and of course Dear Darwin xxxxxxxxxxxxx

Yes I am looking for another job but I am feeling so frustrated.

Back in the day Budgie left new home sales to do an holistic therapy qualification. (A year at college, I am qualified in a variety of subjects, including body massage, reflexology, aromatherapy etc)

But as my Ds was going to uni I needed a regular income as we had said we would fund his degree. So I went to cover maternity leave at the place I am still at, 8 years on.:(

I have always wanted to sell new age gifts at a local indoor market, which would lead me to get to know people who would also probably be interested in holistic therapies.

I have a summerhouse in the garden which I would use, its decked out accordingly and is in a nice location next to my pond.

So do I get back into my therapies and take the plunge with selling new age items, I am really interested in anything new age etc. I have read that you should always sell what interests you.

Or do I just go to look to work for someone else, I have never wanted an office job it just kinda happened.

I need to be more positive on what I want, a lady I know has recommended Hypnotherapy to me which I am going to try.

I trust her and I will see how it goes.

Does anyone have any input that would be helpful as I feel that I am at a crossroads. Its which path to take that is the problem, not knowing which road it leads to?

Guess I need some self belief, but I value the opinions of people on here and would welcome some objective advice.

But then even if I made no money, I would be happy.

Sorry for the long off topic post, foodwise has been a bit hit and miss, I have been researching

Much love and hugs everyone.
