The scary future

[Hermes]

Heh heh, Axa.  I would also like to not work at all, and to have the leisure to study a course, do some writing, that kind of thing. 
Unfortunately, there is no help for me but to work to put the bacon on the table, as they say.  There cannot be too many people in the world who do not need to work, and there are many who have to work, while also studying at college at night. 
Oh, well, maybe I will win the lottery this week-end LOL.

All the best

Beth,

Thanks for adding your bit, very sensible.

Hermes,

I do take Leah's point but I also need to start thinking about the future.  The choices are finish my course and get a job somewhere or continue on and do a phd.  The latter means I would have to remortgage my house, live on very little and maybe figure out that I am not up to it.  Oh well, not going to bother too much about it right now.  Just came back from meditiation and feeling very much in the moment.

Oops forgot Hermes,

I AM going to buy a lotto ticket tomorrow, don't usually do it as I never check the numbers, but will have a bash this weekend.

Good luck, Axa, with that lotto ticket.  We'll know you've won when you send us that postcard from Brazil LOL.

All the best
