This is part 7 of 30 Things My Kids Should Know About Me.

dream job

Honestly, I have no idea what my dream job would be. I worked in convenience stores for over 10 years before this past September. I’ve been a stay-at-home mommy for 7 months now. I actually just had to count because it doesn’t feel like it’s been that long.

My dream job would have to be something that makes me proud of myself and what I do. It would allow me to be home for dinner every night and attend family get-togethers on weekends.

I’m completely torn about working because I want to get out of the house, socialize, and earn money; but I hate the idea of someone else watching my children all the time.

I’m in love with the idea of owning and running my own deli or convenience store. It’s what I know and it’s what I’m comfortable with. Maybe someday.

    I’d love to teach in a university but make what I did as an admin. 🙂

    I agree that whatever makes you proud and hopefully, it is something that you enjoy. I am finally finding what I love in blogging. 🙂

    Someday your dream will come true-you just have to slowly work towards it. Right now it seems that you are enjoying being home with your children which is perfectly fine! Just keep that dream alive!

    When you know a craft, that is what you go with. Someday, you will be selling the best potato salad ever from you deli.

    I’ve done a lot of different things, and I’ve loved all of them for different reasons. But I’m the most content when I’m home-making. But you can’t be a stay-at-home mom without kids LOL So I’m working on it 🙂
