Can't believe I did it!!
After doing the same job for the last 15 years I handed in my resignation yesterday-just like that! I'm sick of it and felt I needed some "me"time.Over the last 4 years my long service leave has gone on 3 ankle operations,a mastectomy and chemo.So no,haven't really got to enjoy it have I.!! I"ve sold our house-2 storey and too much maintenance.We are now packing and cleaning.The furniture truck arrives next Tuesday to take all our stuff into storage as our new single level home is not ready. So we will be homeless -indefinately! We will stay for awhile at my daughter's house as she has a spare room and bathroom.We plan to go away alot and just "wing it".We feel like 2 carefree teenagers,except for the aching muscles from packing! So next week I will be "off line" for awhile-think I will go into withdrawrals.Good luck to all who are having surgery/treatment.I look forward to catching up with everyone later when I unpack.

Wow Tonya,
It all sounds quite liberating!
We moved to Newcastle so our children could start new schools just after the big earthquake.We couldn't get a house for obvious reasons and spent a month in a caravan park, coming home to our home in the country on the weekend.
Having limited "stuff" was amazing and really freed us up physically and emotionally.
Good luck and enjoy.
