There’s half an hour of work before a four-day weekend. Granted, I will spend the first two days selling records (and moving them from one place to another). That’s different though. It’s a side-venture of my choosing.

It’s four days without being in the office. Unless I really hit it big at this sale.

Wouldn’t that be nice. It’s also impossible. I don’t have a big enough inventory to make enough to not come back to the office on Tuesday.

I don’t know how much I would have to make for that to be possible.

Part of me thinks that Jodi and I have saved well enough that we could probably live a long time on what we’ve already earned plus just doing some part-time work here or there.

The big issue would probably be insurance. We were just informed that our work insurance is going up by forty percent. I have no idea what the open market is like. Probably not good and likely to get worse.

It’s not that I mind work, but I’ve reached a point in my life that there are just other things I’d rather be doing with my time. I’m not a lazy, sit-around type of person.

I’d like more time to write. More time to sell records. More time to make art and crafts to sell. Maybe travel a little more, but that’s not even that big of a priority.

I’d just like freedom from the time clock.
