There are many careers I have wanted. I want to be a phlebotomist, have wanted to be a stewardess, or even work in a funeral home or at a cemetary in the business end of things.

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

Woww peggySue I'm really impressed welldone. I admire well oriented and focused people and you are one of them. I just registered Jude in the University nursery, it's a small one not great and fansy like the one in Kuwait but it's a good one and I was watching the teachers and the manager in Leeds nursery they look very prefessional ones and I always wondering are these teachers buy education? profession? training?
who evaluates them?

oh dear! there are so many dream jobs for me it's hard to pick just one. (so your gonna hear about at least two).
First and foremost i would kill to be a profesional musician playing my clarinet in a famous orchistra. I love music and making music just fills me with so much happiness and joy and contentment. I love how all the instruments sound together with their different parts and come to gether and make such beautiful peices.
The other one would be to be an anthropologist, i love discovering new things and learning about past cultures and lives.

(when i was younger i wanted to be first a nurse, then a vetrinarian.)
Why have i not become involved in one of these professions as yet? because circumstances in my life so far just haven't allowed it, but there's always the future.)

(ok since my last post here she's been screaming at me, she wants to be heard,)
so working with children, seniors or mentally challenged is the route i have taken so far. will be finishing my schooling after January. I love working with these three categories of people, in a activity, or life learning capacity. (helping with literature, sports, games, crafts, outings, home cooking, ect.)

One of the other things i have thought about for years and something that everybody says i should do is to be an author. Write fantasy novels, children's books and poetry. That would be so cool if i could make a living doing that.

I also think it would be fun to do some writing on the side, but have never really checked into it. Who knows what the future holds. Go for it.

i think i would go back to school and get my teaching degree. I am a girl scout leader of four years and absolutely love working with kids. I have enjoyed watching them grow and learn. It is so worth it. The pay sucks, the hours are sometimes crazy but I love seeing the rewards.
