Burnout / coping with burnout

[SPCleaning]

Life has a way of throwing low balls. Your mapped out plans can fall to nothing over night, and then you start re-building your life. I'm 44 next month. I was married and all seemed fine, but that there was a divorce and from that, debt. Huge amounts of lawyers bills. Lost everything in the courts. /emoticons/sad.png

Then I met someone else. She is fantastic, best thing ever. She is also twenty years younger than me and wanted a family. So I have a 5 year old and a 3 year old. I wont be retiring,...........ever I think, but my family make me very happy /emoticons/smile.png

Contentedness is a great thing, is killing yourself to gimpresst a beautiful home and a top notch car really worth it in the end, if there is any advice I can give to the younger generation it is to stay out of debt as much as possible meaning they will not have to work so hard to make ends meet. Funny how the latest gadget was great at the beginning of the week but is **** now version 2 is out, slavery to the machine we all feed we can all get caught up in this, I could go on and on it bugs me rant over.Sent from my RM-976_1115 using Tapatalk

Its a good point you make seye. I am glad I am not materialistic. Keep things simple. Dont try to Impress. Being content and happy is a great gift and is what we all should be striving for. Picking my rhubarb and apples and turning them into strong, delicious wine makes me very happy and warms my soul.

I've always loved that saying mr tay, warms the soul, its great when you find something that you get lost in and time has no meaning. You cant help thinking that working untill you keel over was not the way it was meant to be. Balance that's the key I think.

It mounts up when they charge £190 + vat an hour! The more I fought the more it cost.

There can be only one..lol

Maybe we can squeegee each other to death, til there's one window cleaner left!

Would the Kurgan be trad or wfp?

It's important to find something that isn't work or home innit.

Feeling rough as toast today.

Thinking 2 jobs is running me down as I keep getting colds and normally 1 a year is a lot for me.

Finish driving at 4 then bed methinks..no canvassing today
