When I Grow Up

I don't know if it's my impending doom, I mean birthday coming up but I have been living in my head for a few weeks. Scary. I keep wondering what I will be when I grow up. Sure, I could go back to teaching full time. Am I up for the IEP's, the cranky parents, the fried out hagteachers that should have retired years ago? I have always wanted to be an EMT. Maybe I will do something that requires a little less thought like a clothing store or stocking shelves. What about all of those hobbies I might take up? Painting, worship dance, photography, stained glass, fitness, writing? I figure that with this stay at home momgig I have gained experience that lends itself to careers such as chauffeur, nutritionist, nurse, tailor, chef, toy fixer, Finder of all Things Lost, handywoman, executive organizer, manicurist or pedicurist, just to name a few. Food for thought, people. If you need me I will be changing diapers while I change my mind.

I second the worship dance. Carla, it was such a blessing to me the times I was able to go see you in the programs at North Heights. Also, I do the "when I grow up" daydreaming, too. Have a great weekend!

I am TOTALLY going through the same thing. Sort of like a midlife crisis or something... I'm starting to panic that my life will be over and I won't have DONE anything?!
