My life sure isn't what I thought it would be (divorce, especially) and I'm still working on adjusting to being happy with that. When I was young, I wanted to be a doctor and being married was unimportant to me. Now I feel like my career is nothing compared to my family.Valeriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14796161900653422174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4808385982365935675.post-34815988407893376402012-04-27T19:15:33.264-06:002012-04-27T19:15:33.264-06:00I also thought I'd be an author when I grew up...I also thought I'd be an author when I grew up... at least in Junior High... but yeah not really the easiest way to make a living! <br />I am inclined to think that children don't have ANY clue about money and where it all goes to so of course making any sum of money in the thousands sounds like it will go a long way...

I also assumed I'd be alone all my life, so I had all these dreams and plans that really only required _my_ approval, and when I wound up not being alone, those had to go.<br /><br />I think I also had a wildly unrealistic idea of real estate prices in my hometown. I'm not exaggerating when I say the only way I'll own a home there is when I inherit one. So any house dreams I had that involved Vancouver in any way were patently ridiculous.camillehttp://www.brokenrecord.ca/foodblognoreply@blogger.com
