		<description>Yeah - it&#039;s the same cycle over and over again - lay off too many people so the books look good for a few months, then frantically hire more so the work gets done. 

Yep - small getaways is what you get when you&#039;ve got the golden handcuffs on :) It&#039;s true a new year is always time to reflect on what&#039;s working and what&#039;s not in life. Time to clean house so to speak. 

It&#039;s an interesting journey either way though, and we&#039;re each getting some of what we want out of life and some garbage to deal with too. For the record, I&#039;m pining for my tomatoes too, especially since it was -18 this morning.</description>

		<description>Recession my arse. I keep hearing places are understaffed. bah humbug.

PS: as per phone convo: Here we are getting older, you on one end of some spectrum, me on the other, both getting resentful of what we&#039;ve done over and over. Time for some change, I guess....


For everyone else- Yesterday I was on the road hitching and my first lift stopped, going to the junction I needed. When asked where I was going I still wasn&#039;t sure. I haven&#039;t worked for someone else a full year in my life, yet struggle and strain and bitch and fret for my goals of heart-guidance, as others do for some outcome towards their house, cars, ski trips, comforts; they pineing away for some freedom, me dreaming upon my rolled up sweater of having a blender again (and central heating). 

;P 

Thanks for the perspective. Well timed as I&#039;m hanging out in a pad with a seriously comfy couch, a bath I have more serious intention upon than my last boyfriend (ok, maybe not quite), and while no blender, a Seriously nice bunch o people. 
Reading about you romping off to Cuba after hearing of a week ski vacay tells me you know how to flip the coin occasionally, too.

grin.... 

we&#039;re all shoveling our systems, no? 

I&#039;m pineing for your tomatoes, too, just so you know. and for my own....</description>
