So here I am, Monday morning about to head out into another week of work. The tap in the bath won't stop running, so we have to get the plumber around later. Ahh well.....c'est la vie. No point flipping out over it. I'm beginning to get fed up with this whole work thing, though. It's just getting in the way of all the other stuff I'd like to do, but hey, it pays the bills. And I suppose that here, in France, it's not like you have to break your back. 35 work week, 5 weeks holiday a year and another dozen or so national holidays......whew, it's like the workers paradise here (now where have I heard that one before?!). So life goes on, I can't complain too much. My job pays pretty well, they've given me a laptop for work and a PC for my own use at home, all you can eat munchies and snacks, in the office, plus lunch....not bragging or anything, but just trying to find all the bright spots. They say far away fields are always greener, and I'm looking a lot at those fields now. I should be a little more grateful for what I have though. A beautiful wife, a nice apartment, a job, let's face it, that doesn't break my back on most days, and more than enough money to live on. Life's not so bad, after all.
