With this temporary admin job having about three weeks to go, it now seems that there won't be teaching work for me at this school from August. Enrollments were a little down, and existing teachers have it covered.

It's a bit of a disappointment; the money would be good and the lifestyle quite acceptable.

Well, I'm sitting here making lists of all the other things I could do instead. There are so many options I don't know how to choose which one(s) to pursue.

I have a startling and almost frightening amount of freedom.
In fact, I have no mortgage, no dependants, not too much sense of responsibility, and soon no job. I have quite a bit of savings.
I was originally thinking of a house deposit, but I could go travelling for a year or even two if I went cheap.
Or try to transition to an independent editor/technical writer with a bit of more creative and expressive writing on the side.
Or try other combinations of travel and work.
Or go be a hippy in the woods.
Or whatever ...

Hmmmmmmmm, some deep thinking time for me.
