Kids
So, I know it is lame to start off my big bloggers life with such a topic as "kids", but that is my world right now. You see my friend, I am a nanny. Now, before you start thinking of all the horrible movies, news, ect... surrounding us nannies I would like to say that I am not bitter, abusive, or sleeping with my boss. I am one that works in a smaller community for a wonderful family who just happens to consider me family. We have had our ups and downs, that's for sure, but we always end the week with beer. (I prefer wine tho) Anyways, back to the kids. So, the parents are out of town this week which leaves me with the kids. 120 hours in total, not like I am counting tho. We have managed to complete day one of this journey and it got me to thinking...is this it for me? Have my 25 years lead me really just to nanny-hood? Consider this a quarter-life crisis (I guess that's what they are calling it now and days) and now I am left contemplating what my purpose is in life. My sister, whom I love dearly, keeps asking me why I don't go into IT or something with computers. I could, I mean didn't my generation grow up with this technology and a majority of us live off our computers, but am I really good enough is what I struggle with. Considering that a majority of family and friends call me on a daily basis to answer questions about anything that has to do with technology, maybe I am. On the other hand however, there is the Nursing. This is what my father wishes I would pursue. I am a very "compassionate" person is what people say, but sometimes I wonder if I really am caring for others in a genuine way, or is it just me trying to get people to like me? I guess I have a decision to make now...kids, computer, or helping people. What to do? What do you think?
