Crossroads

One of the great Drawbacks of living alone is doing the hoovering and making my bed, knowing I have to go through it all again next month!

Well that was it. Chrimbo has been ,hung around for a bit and now buggered off? I had a very relaxing time away. The only thing I was really worried about is if the 'incident' happened again in someone elses bed! I would have been mortified. It didnt and although I am still sore in a place where the sun don't shine, all is well.
I have eat drank and been slightly merry. I have walked for miles with the dog and my MP3 and wearing my Benny woolie hat!! And now it's all over and I have to go back to work. It seems like everyone else is off until the New Year?? so I feel a bit cheated really.
I am lucky to have a job in this day and age. But we are over staffed and the volume of work is down on the year before.
It's a terrible thing being an Undertaker (especially one that worries) as you don't want people to pass away and yet the business depends on it? How terrible is that.
I have had a long think about what I have achieved over the years. That speccy eyed timid insecure depressed lad of all those years ago aint done too bad. What with being an Engineer and a Sergeant Major (!) a musician an Undertaker etc etc. Yet I still feel as if I need to do something else and I don't know what 'it' is?
I think the New Year will bring new challenges and obstacles as every year has done but I sure would be glad of a rest now? Everyone elses lives seem to be more simpler in many ways or is it that I just make my life 'to complicated'
Anyway whatever the year brings, as always, I will meet it head on. Only 2 ways you can go really. You stop, or, you keep going.
