Wahey new job !
« on: July 10, 2012, 02:23:37 pm »
Since we moved to our smallholding last August I've been commuting to East London every day and doing out of hours on call which means staying over in London on evenings and weekends.
But NO MORE !
Just been offered a job local to me only a 20minute commute in the car down nice clear roads, no more getting up at 5am ( although I'll probably still wake up then) unless I want to go for a run/ ride. ;D ;D
 
Just wanted to share so excited.

I know brilliant, although I might still fall asleep on the sofa/in the polytunnel (years of doing on call means I am very good at catnapping in any environment)  . Husband says we can get sheep now. :sheep:

Brilliant!  ;D


You will find that no commuting makes such a huge difference to your life. And how exciting to be getting some sheep. Which breed are you thinking of?
