Today, I am 40. Does life begin at 40? I don't know, but certainly this past year has been full of highs and lows, and I look forward to the coming year with much anticipation. My birthday present to myself was to resign my job. I handed in my notice today, readying myself for a big challenge this year, heading to WINTEC and the Building Trades certificate.My other big challenge this year will of course be Emily. She is nine weeks old now, starting to take a real interest in the world, and developing her personality. I am excited that for most of this year when I am not at course I will be there for her, not stuck working unsociable hours in a dead end job.
