When you grew up....Kristi Loved the other answers you guys sent. I felt I should send my response.

How many of you are actually happy with your current working situation?
Not happy, but I can see the potential in it. If I can become successful ie; make money, then I can be happy with it. I think I was born to do this job. If the economy will just straighten up things can be great. Of course, I always thought I was meant to do more than just sell candles. Kinda thought I would save the world.

How does your current job differ from what you thought grown up life would be like?
I was a very ambitous child. My biggest dream was to become a truck driver or join the Navy, so I could travel. Never have to stay at the same place to long. However, my school counselor tried to steer me into other directions. (I don't know why). Nursing, computers, a lawyer. Given my genetics, I think being The General is where I was meant to be. For Now.

What did you want to be when you were growing up?
All I wanted to be when I was younger was an adult. Never went any more specific than that. Now I wonder why I wanted to rush it.
.

Or is all this job bullshit a normal part of getting older and more mature?
I think being a grown up is alot harder than I ever thought it would be. Let's go back to school.


Final thoughts..... Out of all of my dreams I never knew how much having a child would change them. I am blessed to have Connor. It is neat to see things from his eyes. It kind of lets you become a kid again. Instead of thinking of my dreams when I was growing up, I just hope I can help Connor fulfill his.  ¶ 10:16 AM
