The reason for this post is? Thinking aloud that’s all, idle thoughtsđ…… I’m neither whinging or feeling sorry for myself, employment is my choice to make and I know how lucky I really am.
Now just so as you know I’m NOT complaining, ok! I’m one of the lucky few to be in full time secure employment, for now, let’s see what horrors Brexit hopefully doesn’t have in store because, well there are good reasons why high European import taxes may effect my employer’s profitability, perhaps Brexit uncertainty is the reason for my unhappiness or perhaps there are darker reasons? Anyways that’s enough introspection for present…. perhaps there’ll be further thoughts to follow.
I awake every weekday morning at 5.45am, I battle a commuter 45minute bus journey to work, then work from 7.30am to 4.30pm, come late afternoon I battle an even longer return commuter journey home, only to walk through my front door at 5.30 evening time……. lol the same routine 40 weeks a year as I have done since age 16 years, but like I said I’m so very fortunate because a great many people don’t have paid employment and I’m FOREVER reminding myself how lucky I really am, but 16-54 years for heaven’s sake đ perhaps I should have changed carreers at age 30? Perhaps I’d be happier if I was married, then again blogger Skinny and Single said to me, “be careful what you wish for”.
Two videos this evening, me operating a metal turning lathe another featuring my workbench, the very same bench I first stood before 10 lol years ago.
Incidentally I’m NOT complaining, I enjoy my job and the 12 hours of my life everyday is worth it, pay’s the bills…… but what’s life all about, I mean what an earth is the meaning of life? I guess love your family also as much sex as you can find seems about right.
After re reading, the word ‘perhaps’ doesn’t half feature a lot, night all.

HA! I’ve been feeling the same lately, like this can’t be life…wake up, eat breakfast, work, make dinner, go to bed…with some variation every now and then lol

đ I know tell me about it!
The flip side is set routines are emotionally comforting, life is less stressful when lol you know where you have to be, or what you are supposed to be doing at any given moment in the day…. but does familiarity breed discontent? But when all said and done, if our families’ are healthy and we have change in the pocket (purse) then we have too feel blessed. TY

As the saying has it, ‘Do What You Love and You’ll Never Work a Day’ – but the routine can get to you. Monday tomorrow – be thinking of all those up before 6!
