It's been over a week since leaving my job, and I am amazed at how freeing this whole thing has been. I feel like I was given my soul back when I walked out the door and left Zenith; and now I feel as if I have control over my own destiny again. I'm living my life, not having others map out how it will be played for me.
So today I went along to the creche that Liz works at to meet the ladies there, and they have offered me some work, so yay! It doesn't pay heaps, but it's some income for the time being. Also it will allow me time to work on the Emma Page thing. As an added bonus I get to us the gym there too, which will be great. It will be lovely to be able to do that with Liz straight after work.
I'm excited about Emma Page as I've always wanted to essentially work for myself, but I've never known how I should go about it. Worst case scenario, if it doesn't pan out all I have lost is some time. Best case scenario I make a partial income out of it, and I get to work the hours I want to.
I'm really keen on not having to work full time. The idea of going back to a full time job just makes me feel incredibly panicked and anxious, so if I can avoid that I will. I'm sure I'll go back to a full time job at some point in my life, but I think for now my sanity couldn't take doing what I was doing.
What was Tony's old study is half cleared out ready to make room for a student. Renee has offered us a loan of the single bed they had in Holland Street when they had students with them. The thing I like about it is you can elect to have students that only need a month, or a couple of months, and have a break between people. We'll start with a short stint, see how that effects our lifestyle and go from there.
