I am a contractor too and often "plan" stuff for when my current contract finishes. Invariably though someone calls me and I have more work. Its very hard to turn down work when you don't know if you will have any more for a while.
In 15 years I have had work apart from when I did a ski season 2 years ago. I am sure if I have looked for work I probably would have found some then too.
I like the fact it gives me the illusion of being in control of who for and when though

Yep. Agree with your whole post in fact.
Although if you are surviving on a spouse/parter's wage then it'd be easier. I'm the only earner in our house...
