What were your parents doing at your age?
My parents worked until they couldn’t. But they worked hard to have fun too. Plus, they had grand kids that they love hanging out with. Kitt βΊοΈ

That’s me at work lately. I really like my team, but they tend to forget that I would like a heads up when nothing is working, too.
Besides that, it was a really good day. Hubby grilled hamburgers and steaks. We were able to go for another walk. Both those were awesome!!!
On a more personal note…
I realized today that though I do love my job, I shouldn’t care more than management about when there are problems. I shouldn’t let it get to me as much as I do. So I am going to try and let it go more at work.
I also realized that though I do live my job, it is not my end goal. I thought today’s writing prompt was taken straight from my mind in some ways.
I ultimately want my side hustle business to be my main money maker and my job to be a side hustle. As in, work one maybe two days a week. I figure by the end of next season, at the end of September, I should know if it is a viable thing. I won’t be able to actually start it next year, I think, but I should be able to tell if it is viable. I figure probably 3 years, and I can either only work one to two days or quit and not worry. I have a plan… okay, that’s not actually right, I have an idea of a plan. I am hoping to figure out more of it in the next couple days and then break it down into achievable goals. I am very excited about it, too. Yay π€
That was my (mostly) happiest for the day. Hope you had some too! Kitt βΊοΈ
What alternative career paths have you considered or are interested in?
When I was a little girl I wanted to be a ballerina. I took classes and was quite promising actually. But in my infinite childish wisdom and idealizing my brother, I quit doing that and took karate with him.
When I was an early teen I could sing beautifully. But after a horrid case of bronchitis and the flu, I no longer can sing where anyone truly wants to hear.
My senior year in going into graduation, I tested to see what I might be good at. One of the things I tested into was an air traffic control operator. I would have been great at that. But the guy I was dating then said he wouldn’t wait around for me to do training for 6 weeks or whatever it was. And my dumbass thought he hung the moon so I didn’t do it.
In my 19th year to my 21st ish year I was a bookkeeper. I am very good at that, but I went on the road with my ex-husband as a truck driver. Probably the best we ever got along to be honest. But honestly, we were not a good match. He was very mentally abusive and I was young at stupid for a while.
My mid-20’s I started dating my husband now. After a couple years I carried a baby to term. I was prepared to get a job again, but my husband give me the best gift he could have, I was a stay at home mom and wife. What I always wanted to be. I loved it…
By my 30s I had 2 kids and was going to school full time. I was great at that. Lol I love school. Ultimately, I got 2 masters degrees. One in Education and one in Organizational Management. Since I home schooled both my kids and I became a basic bookkeeper again, those were quite helpful.
But today, as I have said in another post, crafting is what I want to do full time. Luckily, we don’t have a ton of bills so it is feasible, as long as we work our goals and dreams to make it happen.
Plus you know, blogging and writing, those would be the ultimate fun. Oh and of course reading. Lol Kitt π
I have a regular job. I have to be there by 445am. I happen to love my job. I get to count money all day that I am there. And best of all, I am not a cashier, I work in a back-office. (nothing against cashiers, I would just smack some of the people I have seen come into our store.) So my job is great. I don’t even mind getting up so early since I don’t sleep well anyways. But that is not my only job….
My family has a side hustle of crafting many different things. (Another post shows the hands we make) and I have to say, I wish that was my main gig and I worked for extra money.
Lately I have been making fur tails and ears, plus clay horns. Well, I became slightly obsessed and made way more than I thought.
Not complaining, I love them and now I have them to sell. It is actually quite exciting to me to know that when we start the different types of fairs and markets again I have a great supply.
What about you? Do you work for someone else, yourself, both? Honestly, I love my job, I don’t see myself quitting, lessening my days sure, quitting nope. Kitt π¦π¦
