Elicia got another two jobs on the weekend. Her own business is going well, but the number of massages she can do in a week is limited by the availability of the room - which she shares with another person at the clinic. After working 40+ hours every week at Hotham, coming back here to what is really only a part-time schedule left her feeling a bit bored (and poor also, I think). So she went out and talked to a few cafe places in Queenscliff last week and two of them offered her work on the spot. So it's not just me that appreciates her good qualities!
I've also been searching for something else to keep myself entertained. I have always liked learning new things - when I'm not in formal education I like to do classes in something-or-other (preferably not computer related) just for fun. Since getting back I have pondered returning to several previously-discarded hobbies: karate, painting, photography, harmonica, woodwork, ham radio and piano, plus several other things that I've never done before but would like to try. Like fashion design - I was briefly inspired after watching a very interesting doco the other night. I also considered doing a bachelor of theology part-time off-campus, I could take it to Hotham with me next year, but the cost is prohibitive. Maybe some time in the future. Anyway, I made a deal with my sister so she will teach me to play the piano again and I will teach her guitar. I only learned piano for a year or so and that was a few years ago now, but I enjoyed it and will enjoy getting back into it. If I make that my main hobby I should get plently of time to practise... that's the plan, anyway...
