Study leave

I find myself in a delicious but strange time in my life.

I have paid study leave for a month.

Do you know what an absolute luxury that is?

I resigned from my role at Young Farmers

a few months ago.

I set the date as the end of June 

as the middle of months of the years are always super busy for NZYF

plus I didn't want to leave any projects with holes in them.

I resigned because after three and half years

of giving it my all 

I am exhausted and looking for a new challenge.

Boy do I have some cool stuff coming up.

I am blessed to have an extensive network 

in the ag sector and over the last few years

opportunity after opportunity 

to do some great projects has arisen 

but working full time for an equally dynamic and busy organization

means there is little time to all the cool stuff.

So I find myself sitting at my home computer

on a Monday morning,

still in my jamas, 

all cosy by the fire

(while my fulla is off fishing with some friends in the freezing cold)

but wondering what you do when you have lots of unstructured time.

Maybe I'll pull out my A3 paper and colour pens

and create a schedule.
