I am a sheep farmer, which in itself is a full-time job. Last year I started working an outside job at a grocery store. I was soon asked to work in the meat department. I enjoy the meat department, not sure why. Then I started training as a meat cutter, but the grocery store is small and only has need of one meat person per day. A little hard to get much meat cutting training completed. My hours were part-time which was great since I had the sheep and farm to take care of.
Starting this week, I started working at a larger store in the meat department as a full-time employee. My husband who is supposed to be semi-retired is not doing the chores on the farm. There are also improvements and repairs that need to be done on the farm. My days off from the store are filled with household chores and farm projects.
There is not much if any leisure time in my life. I do take time to take care of me. I enjoy a long hot bath after a day of work. I write blogs and my books I have started. There are times I do sewing or other craft type projects. I would like to have more time to read, as there is a list of books I am interested in. Any time I can work in time to ride a horse or go fishing, I do so.
My days are long and filled with work. The work I enjoy doing, it is not a burden. Most times I do not think about leisure time or what to do with leisure time. I enjoy my days and what I do even if most people call it work.
