Work is NOT My Life

For the record! I do not define myself by my job. Yes, I said job. Not Career. We as Americans are so obsessed with what type of job/career we have we don't take time just to enjoy our lives. I am sick of people telling me you gotta love your job, do you enjoy what you do?

OH FOR THE LOVE OF GOD!!!

I work because I have a mortgage, 3 dogs, 3 cats, a husband in school, and a father who lives with me. I don't mind doing what I do, BUT and again listen carefully... IT IS NOT WHO I AM!! If I didn't have to work to pay bills I wouldn't. PERIOD!

I would hang at my home, travel, read books, have long intellectual conversation and some long pointless conversations, drink good & bad wine, play with my dogs, my cats & my husband . In general I would just BE.

No I am not my job, and I resent spending more time here than with the people I live with.

OH, and yes I am happy.
