♥ Long drawn out morning coffee ♥ Jeans and t-shirts ♥ Ugg boots, not stilettos ♥ Dinner cooked at lunch time ♥ Daytime TV (I know,
probably won’t happen, but it could) ♥ Writing all day ♥ Afternoon naps ♥ Midweek
laughs with my bestie (I can’t wait to sit on her deck in the sunshine and
whittle away the hours chatting) ♥ Breakfast sitting down, not eaten on the run ♥ Dog walks, shop runs ♥ Afternoon tea in the sun ♥ Phone chats ♥ I might even get
through my email for once! ♥ Reading, oh I can’t wait to lay on the lounge with a
good book, during the day, midweek (this is so novel I can’t even imagine what
this will feel like) ♥ No rushing ♥ No peak hour traffic ♥ No watching the time
every five minutes for the first two hours of my day ♥ Phone on silent. House
silent. Head silent. ♥
Three weeks and
counting. My life as I have known it for 23 years will change and my heart and
soul cannot wait. I can't stop smiling, thinking of the freedom that will
prevail. I have loved my career and feel incredibly blessed for the
opportunities I have been presented with (truly blessed), but I am ready.
At one point, when I first started to realise I no longer loved working full time, I had
planned to retire when I hit 50. FIFTY YEARS OLD! That is nine years away, how
would I have lasted another nine years of full time, five days a week work? Impossible.
I have been ready for this for a long time. I am so glad I listened to my
authentic self.
Three weeks
and counting.
Oh wow! I'm jealous. Giving up work would be bliss... I've got so many more important things to do than work for a living. If only someone else would pay my bills...

Yep, sounds absolutely perfect Peggy. After 23 years, you MORE than deserve it. There are so many lovely things about being at home and you'll find plenty of inspiration for your writing too xo
ReplyDeleteWoooo hoo!
ReplyDeleteSo excited for you - and by what you have created in your life.
