The title and the blog are diverging and it there's isn't much in here other than the wreckage that the cancer left in its wake :-) By that I mean the changes physically and more importantly mentally. Dealing with the ongoing head issues is proving the biggest deal now where physically coping with the treatment and recovery were the pressing worries earlier on.
I've been considering the practicalities of turning a hobby into a job and by that I mean my genealogy stuff. I've been doing that for 35 or more years and have written articles about that and undertaken a lot of in depth research. If it were possible to monetise that in some way then that would be nice. I've pulled together quite a bit of data on that and then I considered that there are other areas that might also contribute and so I'm thinking through the possibility of combining a number of these together - do many things so that I'm not reliant on the outcome of one and have other things to do during lean times. It is a way forward and gets over some of the indecision I've been having about committing to one thing. The idea being that I could build a series of businesses and as long as I'm disciplined enough to work on one when the other is quiet and so on, it could be a potential way out. Additionally there is a voluntary position going in the local Museum which may help promote my work and I can also get some casual paid work locally although I've not gone into that in any great depth at the moment as I now need to go and work on these ideas and see if they really hold water and make sense.
I can't tell at this moment, the ideas are arriving far too quickly.
I'm wondering whether this blog may soon have run its course in the interim as there are just 2 times a year when something actually happens to me at the moment and they are my check ups?
