Well, difficult! I am taking a break from the business after all the recent nastiness and I am tackling things I should have done years ago! Yesterday was to scan and then to shred all of the single record records I have kept in a file and never looked at past the original work I did on each of them. That's one file done and hundreds of records now safely saved in the family history archives.
Today my new shredder arrives and I can really get to tidying up years and years worth of information that I no longer look up, read or need. If it might be important it can get scanned and then shredded.
Other documents and books can be given away to worthy causes. I have boxes of journals that can go and I need to just release my hold on these now worthless things.
The business decision is not going to be easy. Do I run with the business after all this time or do I just shut it down? I am not sure because one requires me to undertake a load more work and one means I can just walk away! I am struggling with this still because it's the end of one journey and the start of another or it really is a terminal event but I get my life and time back. That too is attractive.
I will carry on reviewing this nut not for too much longer as I need to make a decision and it is hard because both options have merit and there is a third part way option I guess but it still involves working. I'm meant to be retired and yet here I am working out about running this business with this interference from someone who "Does not want to be involved in the business ever again!" yet throws bricks in from the side. Hopefully not many more but why bother with it all?
