I would leave now but with 3 adult children - all in post-secondary school programmes (college/university) - ALL living at home, I can't quite see myself leaving work just yet. Within the next 18 months , I hope!<br /><br />...........but............when my little birdies have found their wings................who knows what life has in store?<br /><br />My goodness, I wouldn't use the word "lazy" to describe you!Janehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06364546048806887494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3532409850252086723.post-22326096743176890012012-02-26T14:21:43.870+00:002012-02-26T14:21:43.870+00:00Good for you Jane.

I fear that I might come across as a bit lazy but in former days I worked a 60-70 hour week (rising to even more sometimes if the on-call was very busy). In part I feel as though my working life was 'front loaded'!! I wouldn't say that I got burnt out - just a little singed around the edges perhaps. Happy times with your retirement!The Custardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17632655608950737315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3532409850252086723.post-15557116495937085022012-02-26T02:17:28.267+00:002012-02-26T02:17:28.267+00:00I shouldn't complain about my job as it is int...I shouldn't complain about my job as it is interesting and challenging and I appear to be fairly good at it - or so people say. BUT, I work a full week and sometimes overtime and I'm just tired out. I am getting very close to retirement and that is looking very, very enticing! I have so many interesting and exciting things to try and I'm anxious to get at them!<br /><br />:)Janehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06364546048806887494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3532409850252086723.post-51279204787479859852012-02-25T06:41:53.221+00:002012-02-25T06:41:53.221+00:00Not awful at all - practical.

Go Hellman's - a practical solution to all pegging problems.<br /><br />I should not complain about paid work - I am very lucky in that I really love what I do. In fact I had an email last night from somewhere that I used to work asking if I would like to teach anatomy and physiology to some dental nurses for a few weeks. I love that subject so much I would almost pay them to do it!!The Custardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17632655608950737315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3532409850252086723.post-63023126941585880732012-02-25T02:53:47.273+00:002012-02-25T02:53:47.273+00:00I'm sure you will think it's awful, but I ...I'm sure you will think it's awful, but I cannot imagine life without a dryer. I don't think I could ever get everything dry. I think it's very much a cultural thing and unfortunately I think it is a very North American thing to do - have a large dryer, but I think I would go over the edge without one.<br /><br />I keep my clothes pins/pegs - the terms are interchangeable in Canada - in a small fabric shopping bag, provided by Hellman's Mayonnaise. It came attached to a ginormous jar of mayo one summer and was so small I couldn't imagine what use it could be. I thought my idea for using it was terribly clever, but I am rather ashamed after looking at your lovely work!<br /><br />You know.....I HATE it when paid employment gets in the way of having fun!Janehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06364546048806887494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3532409850252086723.post-49876244233148698592012-02-24T23:02:08.898+00:002012-02-24T23:02:08.898+00:00That's a nice idea - in fact I will give that ...That's a nice idea - in fact I will give that a go and use the hanger for something else (that to is in the DoS - forever to be abbreviated in that way from this day forth).The Custardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17632655608950737315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3532409850252086723.post-24999714067522431302012-02-24T18:02:20.164+00:002012-02-24T18:02:20.164+00:00OOoooh - you should take the red one out of the Do...OOoooh - you should take the red one out of the DoS (you make me laugh) and use it for a cover over a lavender pillow to keep moths away from your wools.. <br /><br />I'm already anticipating Major Withdrawal Pain when you begin your March schedule...Vicki K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/08663434879488076171noreply@blogger.com
