Do you ever think..

You just live to work? I’m mentally and physically exhausted. I like my job but I feel like I barely have a life outside of it, almost all my money goes into bills, what’s the end goal here.

Funnily enough, I came home early from work today feeling unwell, and I hated doing it. Maybe guilt as I do love my job, but even so I don't have much of a social life. I hardly ever go out after work for an evening, and I spend the weekends with my sister and mum shopping, or going for dinner at my parents on Sundays. Yes, money is all for bills and the necessities, it is all we seem to work for.

@Jemimapuddleduck I can relate to that, I’ve never had a day off sick at my current job, if I know it’s busy like it is now, I refuse to take my holiday days. Although how I’m feeling right now I think I need some time off.

I wouldn’t even be social with any time off, I’d just want to actually relax a bit. I’ve been in my first house for a year and felt like I haven’t been able to just enjoy having my own space.
