Fifteen years ago…Career
Ξ August 17th, 2009 | → 2 Comments | ∇ me me me |
Fifteen years ago this month I was getting ready to go to college.
I was 16.
And I had big plans.
Some of those plans worked out, and some, well, not so much. So for the next week or so (depending how many plans I remember) you get to hear about them!
When I started college, I had several ideas about what my career would be.
A high-priced therapist. Neurologist. Neurosurgeon. Speech Therapist. FBI Profiler.
I didn’t really know for sure what I was going to do, but I knew my career would be successful, I would be highly paid, well-dressed and it would have something to do with Psychology, Linguistics or the brain.
And now? Career? What’s that? I stay home with my kids and I home school them. I have no plans to ever put them in school unless God really changes things. I wash dishes, change diapers and play Candyland. My efforts to lose weight have resulted in a very part-time from-home BeachBody coaching business, which is more fun than work. And I wouldn’t change it.
What were your plans for a career once upon a time?

Pediatric Oncologist was the first career I wanted but that changed over time to include teaching or something with kids. That has not worked out except to be mom.

I wanted to work for the FBI too – isn’t it funny how much things can change?
