Not sure what I will do with all of my free time

This is the only day I'm scheduled this week.  With the change in sub scheduling, I suspect it might very well be the only day I get this week.  I'm not sure yesterday really counts as much of a day off, as I was stressed about the medical tests I was undergoing.  On the upside, it appears at this time as though there is no immediate cause for concern, but they will check again in six months.

Anyway, it seems weird to be having multiple days off each week.  Next week I'm only scheduled two days, and it just seems so odd to be having this much time off.  Three years ago was the last fall I didn't work, but at that point I had three kids at home, none of them could drive, and they were younger.  Now there are only two, Catherine can drive, and the youngest is 15...mostly self-sufficient.  There just seems less for me to handle.  Maybe I'll get the desire to continue scrapbooking, or to make some other decorations and creating I've been wanting to do.  For years I have thought about writing a book, either a fictional story or about some of the craziness of our lives.  I definitely want to avoid spending lots of money, because if I'm not working much I sure can't be doing that.  I'm grateful that things have worked out with Andrew's contracts and supplementals and I don't have to stress about not working, just be careful.  I guess this extra time presents lots of opportunities!
