As Fat-Haters’ Club is going through the proofreading and conceptual editing phase, I anticipate that our lives will change once the book is re released. We are venturing into a new career and it is exciting and scary at the same time. We are not in our twenties anymore and I read an article that the older one gets it is hard to venture out and start a new career. With the economics being what it is, I have been reading how people who have had the same job for 20-30+ years are being let go. They are starting over. I think the medical field is going to have an overload of people trying to transition over. That seems to be the fastest growing industry.

Even the school district is cutting and trying to chop pay, like we all make so much money. It is crazy.

My career flip would be in writing-I want to be a reader for books. I want to do voice-overs for the power points I see in online schools. I want to give speeches. I want to work closely with my husband where we can enjoy every day that we have together.

I don’t think the economy is going to get any better, but worse. Time is precious and I feel for those who have already lost so much. What do I want to be when I grow up?

I guess a lot of people will be finding that path now that the security of a job has been striped away. Wishing all a better path in this time of economic crisis.
