I have the best job in the world.
Two days a week I teach furniture making in the college workshop. The students are keen, hardworking and good. I can spend all day talking about furniture making, helping and advising them, chatting about wood, tools and design and making small items just for fun.
The rest of the week I can spend doing whatever jobs I fancy the look of and I get to sing, dance and act on stage and make all the props and sets for the theatre.
I have time to study a MSc, renovate my house, play with my cats, have a relationship and spend time with my family. Apart from teaching days everything else is as and when I feel like it. I have a few clients who are more then happy to leave me their house keys and money and then decide what they want me to make or do for them.
I don't have lots of money coming in, enough to pay the bills, but I don't see what else there is to spend money on that I don't already have.
I am happily desiging my new bedroom suite and furniture now.
