Do I have to have one? In my dream world, I wouldn't work. lol.

If I had to pick one, it would actually be the one that I have. I love what I do, and I've been dreaming of being able to do it for years.

It changes frequently, but at the moment being a clothes designer sounds awesomely fun

I'd specifically like to design Tankini swimwear and dresses.

(In reality I'd hate the fashion industry pressures, but the idea of just drawing and designing is nice)

Stay at home wife, with money to lunch, and have a maid and chef and nanny.

Basically I want to do nothing. Just enjoy my couch, afternoon walks and having a freshly made dinner made by neither H or I. Plus with a maid we can relax and enjoy weeknight family time when he's home from his commute.

I would love to do my job forever but without a retirement and low pay, I will have to get out of EMS in the near future.

I would love to write a novel. I used to write all the time but stopped once I got into EMS.

My dream job since I was a child was to write. I have finished children's book I should send out for rejection (haha) but I'd like to have them illustrated first.
DH & I occasionally talk about opening a store.

I'm just going to copy pooh and say: Lady Who Lunches. I'd love to have millions and just be able to volunteer all over the place. Plus, I have SO lost my way....like I have no clue what I would love to do career-wise. I ransacked some old files to see what careers I was advised to pursue when I paid mega bucks to be mentally assessed and dissected years ago. The report I found wasn't as helpful as I had hoped. Gosh, I sound so sad :\

((Hugs)) MrsMB

I would still SAH but also have way more help so I can be better balanced. I don't mind the chores, grocery shopping, and making food (although it would be nice to feel like I had more time to make better meals than I am now). It would just be nice to have someone actually come and take the kids for a few hours (or even an hour a couple days a week) so I can do things like run or go to a moms group without worrying about someone's nap/sleep being all messed up.

If I had to work there are lots of things I would love to do...marathon/triathlon coaching, therapist, nurse (RE, OB, or L&D). Traveling the world would be awesome too but I would have to be able to bring my boys with me.

MrsMB: I feel like I'm constantly lost on the career front. While completing my master's I did career testing and the results were rather inconclusive. Basically anything I was considering showed up as compatible.
katespade: Thanks! The offer is kind of terrifying because it leaves me with less excuses.
