A new year doesn't mean a new start for some people. If only if meant longer holidays and a shorter working week...I can only dream...
My first week back at work after a holiday is always something I never look forward to and it always takes me a few days to get back into the swing of things again.
This week was no different from any other and the first few days seemed to drag with memories of before the holidays with rudeness, swearing and bad attitudes from most of the little darlings I teach.
But before I knew where I was it’s suddenly the weekend and I’m at home for a couple of days. And it’s strange how much everyone looks forward to just two days at home – and how quickly they go by compared to days at work.
I keep thinking there must be more to life than counting away the days so I’ve spent most of the week working on new writing projects. I’ve joined a new writing community at Helium and will hopefully be able to reach new heights and new markets. If nothing else it’s another route of escapism from the daily grind and keeps my dream alive of an early retirement – okay, I did say it was only a dream..
I hope you’ve all had a good start to the New Year and all the best for 2008.
