    I wanted to be a physicist, mathematician or a doctor. Go figure, but that was the 70s,,, no uni for moi.

    It turned out okay, though, life has gone on .. now I wanna be a graphic artist, there's no one around to tell me NO, so it's off to school I go .... tra la la !

    Artist, writer, wife, mother. I could use some Frankenstein shoes, too, but didn't know it when I was a kid. Didn't know I was only going to be 5'2".

    interesting, just today i was thinking about this

    i have many clients who have known from childhood about how exactly their wedding would be, their husband, their careers

    i never once thought of those things,,,,never thought about my wedding, etc

    although i wanted to go into law, and tried 3 times to start university, first time i enrolled, got preg with 2nd child and would have been too hard a task at the time (no off campus learning then)

    2nd time i tried, i became a jw,,YUK

    3rd time, a few years ago, i ended up leaving my x of 25 yrs, and getting df'd,,,,then the spiral began

    now i am a small business owner, go figuire,,,,,,but, being the boss, i get to have my police scanner on at work so i can keep on top of a few things :):)

    I wanted to be everything.

    A Dancer, Artist, Sculpter, mother, Head of a million dollar corporation, a deep sea diver, an author, a pilot, a gypsy, a a member of a harem, a princess, a wife, a sex goddess, a member of the Beyond Thunderdome crew, a extreme sportist, a florist, a doctor, a safari leader traveler type person, a tiger tamer and a swims with the dolphins gal. A scientist, a seamstress, a clothing designer, a beautician, a model, be on Broadway, a scholar, a poet, a singer, a drummer, a farmer and a con person, a graphic artist, a mechanic, an architech, a pot smoking hippie, a revolutionary, a zoo keeper and a one person band............everything...EVERYTHING. I still think it would all be fun...except for the pioneer thingi. So I try to keep focused and stick to one or ten things and see how many things I can do.

    I made a list once and you would be suprised how many things you can do on that list......except for mine keeps growing!
