I should probably give myself a break

I handed in my dissertation last week and I now I find myself at a bit of a loose end.

There are things I want to do, but I can't do them while I am working where I am. At least not doing the hours I am.

There are other things I want to learn but they are all evening courses so unless I can find another job or get my hours changed, I can't do any of them. I know I should probably give myself a break but it is hard. I don't like the idea of doing nothing. What has been nice is that I have had chance to do some reading and watch TV without feeling guilty that I should be doing something else.

Maybe I just need to enjoy having time to myself, but I'm not sure I can do that.
