  • Tomorrow!

    Holy crap, I can't believe we leave tomorrow!  I am so freaking excited, it's beyond words.  I know the week is going to be hellaciously busy and stressful, but I'm excited to be going back "home"...even for a little bit.  Plus, it'll be nice to have the house bought and put behind us, so we can move on to other things (house hunting has taken over our lives for the past month).

    In other news...I'm seriously considering taking a break from work and trying to find out what will really make me happy.  My job is fine, but it's not a "dream job" or anything like that...and I don't leave work every day feeling satisfied with the time I've put in.  I went to school wanting to help people, and I'm really not doing that in my job now.  The only problem is, I really struggle to think of things that I'd be good at.  I have my law degree and my master's, but I really don't want to practice law.  I would love to go into librarianship (my master's), but those jobs are so few and far between, and there's nothing open where we're moving back home to...so I'm not sure how practical that would be.

    So yeah...some of you know me better than people I see on a day-to-day  basis...what can you see me doing?  Any particular "careers" come to mind?

     

    XOXOXO,

  • Safe travels!  I hope you're able to update on the housing situation.  Would love to hear how it's going

    As for a new career, hmm.....  What about working for a nonprofit?  Pay would be crap, but you'd really feel like you were making a difference (not sure if this is a goal, but that's at least satisfying).  Good luck figuring it out....i know you'll find something you love eventually.

  • Have a safe trip back! :D Good luck with the house searching. As for a job, I say make a list of what you want then factor in salary.
    I'm still trying to figure that all out too.

  • Fun!  Have a good time house hunting.  Hmmm new career?  I have always wanted to work in a jewelry store. Ha ha!  Maybe counseling?  I think you are pretty discerning so counseling might be up your alley.  Or case management.

  • I'm trying to think of things to do but there are plenty of jobs out there that help people. perhaps a foundatation or something along those lines?
