Doing nothing.

There are days when nothing works the way you want to. Today is such a day. The DH is extremely disgruntled at his job. He hates it. He is overworked (came home at 10 pm yesterday) and totally stressed out. He is actively looking for a change in a new company but nothing seems to be working out. But I am sure it will, eventually.

And me? I have quite a bit of writing work to do but I am just not feeling like getting down and doing it. It's cloudy and the rain is pattering down lazily. I am sitting with my laptop on the bed with a cup of tea and Bisk Farm's 'Just Ginger' for company (the biscuit is quite good too!). Anyway, the very fact that I am writing a blog post is proof of the fact that I am not working. I know I should. I am sure I will write today. It's so difficult to work when it's so easy to just visit random blogs or log onto Facebook.

I really really wish I had a normal 9 to 5 job where someone would be breathing down my neck to get work done all the time! But circumstances are such that it's just not possible. Not at the moment. So I have to continue working from home for some time at least.

Let's hope it works.

To end on a fun note, here's something I found:

I so-oo need a career change!

I am so-oo looking forward to a 'normal' working life. The thing is, I am extremely happy with my content writing career and would love to do nothing else for the rest of my life. But the problem is, I just can't work solitary. After more than two-and-a-half years of working from home, I have realized that I need to get out of the house. I need to have people around me and I need to talk to them. I just can't spend the rest of my working life (and I am only in my 20's) in my pajamas, sitting with my laptop open on the bed. I just can't. I need to feel the pressures of a hectic office culture and I want to dress up every day in the morning and go to work. I need to feel the thrill of being appreciated by my boss and colleagues and yearly bonuses and increments. I really do! And so, I have started looking for a normal 9 to 5 job! Got the DH too on the project and he has agreed to look out for job openings. Let's see how it all works out. :D
