it might sound sad but its the exact opposite ;)

we chose to work Sundays, we don't have to.

I chose to work weekends because I prefer to finish at 3ish during the  week
.
 working weekend means I can go on 5 holidays a year.

its not sad, its the  freedom to chose :D :D

Work to Live not Live to Work, Dave liahore has it right works four long days a take 3 days off.

I really dont see the point of having your own business and working 7 days a week even if you finnish at 3 in the afternoon.

Family is far more important than money, speaking from experience.

Gave up my job because I had to travel all over the world but never saw my family. Whats the point  ???.

You cant take it with you.

Neil, i understand what youre saying but everyones lives are different. i have a young family (three year old son and four and half month old daughter) but due to a bitter ex and many hours in court i only get to have them one day a week! so i work my b*tt off to make sure i give them everything(within reason) and will give them the best possible start in life. to me work isnt a problem at all-i enjoy it and aside from a little leisure time with motor bike and mates then i would sooner work. always have and always will. thats just me ;) some people are happy to plod on i suppose.

cheers, Damian.

HI Damian

Get your point and would be the same if I did not have them around all the time. I am only 34 so see the need to be working.

I probably work just as hard as you do but try to get it into 4-5 days a week (Thats Just Cleaning Though) Marketing and General Office get done in the evenings.

Weekends are looked forward to as I am heavly involved with football.

Never plod along though as this business is going to make me my fortune.
