Wistful @ The Willows


I can’t believe we’ve only been in this house a month. It feels so much like home. I love it because it’s cosy and comfortable, Philippa loves it because it only takes an hour to clean. We sit here in the evenings and she reads while I play on the Wii and we look very much like a contented, married, middle-aged couple.
(Will I count as middle-aged when I hit 30 next week?)
I have today requested some literature from the Open University. I am thinking of re-training. You may call it a pre-mid-life crisis or just one of my whimsical flights of fancy, but I am getting the urge to study again. I am nearly halfway to pensionable age and I don’t want to spend the rest of my working life pottering about in jobs I hate when I could actually take control of myself and find something I like. So I am taking a look at ‘distance learning’ because - let’s be honest - it’s probably the only thing I HAVEN’T looked at in the past few years…..
