Still deciding.![]()

Hmmm. thinking back..I don't remember. I think I said "secretary"..we're talking 1950's kids..and it was prestigious. Actually, I think I said that 'cause I wanted to be with my beloved daddy all day. He was amazing and I learned so much from him.
My mom wanted me to be a nurse and wear a white cap and white shoes and white dress. No kidding.
I had too many ducks in a row and never really made up my mind. I finally became a corporate travel agent by accident. I did that for 35 years, was lucky enough to travel everywhere I wanted, made terrific money and made great friends. I was in heaven. I don't miss the unbelievable stress, but I was never ever bored, that I can say. It was a wonderful challenge that incorporated my physical, emotional and mental skills.
If I'm ever physically able again, I'd do anything..anything..just to be with people and get a paycheck. Right now, I'm helping my old aunt and uncle out a little since she had a stroke. So, since I also cared for both parents, maybe that was the way I became a "nurse" afterall.
