A couple of months ago, life was somehow frustratingly empty. I managed - and enjoyed - to do the crossword in the paper each day! I asked for life to get slightly more exciting (I have low blood pressure, lack of excitement makes me lethargic). Now I'm juggling two rather time-consuming work projects, my normal life as a mom, and all the little tidbits and favors that I've been offering to people on the side, because I've had time to help. One way I notice I am busy beyond belief? I don't find time to blog regularly. I don't manage to read the newspaper. Forget the crossword puzzle.
I have managed to enjoy the Easter and May 1st breaks, though. This is the huge luxury of having quit a full-time office-based job. I may work full-time, but I can decide to take all of my vacation. All the bridge days, all of the time off that I want.
It's the biggest luxury in life. To have work, in order to have vacation. I am paraphrasing Pippi Longstocking, if you know the series where she decides to go to school, in order to have vacation…
