5) Use the week to rest. I’ve enjoyed some golf this week and a walk down at Troon.
6) Tie in your time off with the rest of the family. Don’t be the parent/partner who’s always working.
2) It’s hard to take holidays when you don’t get paid for them but that’s all part of the freelancing life.
7) If you have to do any kind of work for your freelance business, keep it light. Admin work, review your website. That sort of thing.
3) If you are freelancing I recommend taking regular breaks from work. Look at it as an investment.
1) For the first time in a long time I feel completely rested. I think it’s been nearly a year since I felt like this.
8) Finally, schedule your next time off when you go back to work. Something to look forward to when you’re working again.
4) Don’t go anymore than three months without taking at least a week off.
Weekend Report #9
Is it April already? Where did March go? Yip, it's been one of them months where it's over before it's even began.
The last three weeks have definitely been like this. I've been busy working and we've been out and about a bit more now that the good weather is with us and getting the boys outdoors isn't such a problem.
Saturday was errands day. Heading to a few places to get some ideas for the garden. We invested some time and money into the garden last year and this year we're ready to finish most of the heavier work in the garden. I can't wait for the day that I can just put me feet up in the garden, fire up the grill and start on a couple of cold beers.
Sunday was Ethan's return to weekly medals at Paisley Golf Club. He's spent a fair amount of time over winter putting in extra practice and it's starting to pay off. Once the course dries out a bit more though and he's had a few more practice rounds he should start to see his handicap fall.
Easter holidays have started for the school kids. I took Ethan up to Paisley for a round of golf. Weather was favourable (it wasn't raining) and the course was in great condition. Ethan played very well as always. I was a little slower to get started and couldn't hack the pace at the turn. By that point my back and arms were tired. We're heading back out on Wednesday again, so hopefully I'll be a better playing partner!
