Enjoy your day!!
I can’t work because of my disabilities but I had a vivid imagination as a child: https://justkatherineblog.wordpress.com/2023/01/22/bloganuary-day-22-what-was-your-dream-job-as-a-child-bloganuary/
On time today. https://everythingandnothing.blog/2023/01/22/kitchen-school/
I captured my youthful fancies of my dream jobs in an essay that I wrote.
“The Dummy Never Showed Up.”
Charlie broke my heart in 1971. Dressed in a top hat and tuxedo, and well-groomed with manicured nails and combed hair, he was debonair, even if his monocle made him look a bit stuffy. Always ready with a smart comeback, a smooth put-down, or a drop of wisdom, he was witty, candid, and self-assured. Charlie was a dummy, but I wanted him anyway.
The big problem—he was unavailable. Like all desirable men, he was taken. Women everywhere had lined up to have a chance with him. Seems like everyone wanted a wise-cracking fella who was perpetually dressed for the opera.
My mother broke the news to me. “Honey, I have to talk to you about your Christmas list.” I was twelve, so we had long ago stopped calling it “my letter to Santa.”
“I’ve looked everywhere.” Her voice shrunk as she spoke. “I can’t find a Charlie McCarthy doll.” She asked me to think of something else to add to my list. I did, but I don’t recall what it was. I could’ve asked for a hand puppet, but that would’ve been like having to settle for Eddie Haskell after hoping to date Donny Osmond. There was no substitute for Charlie.

As a child, Nursing was my dream job. Here’s how it unfolded.

I’ve dreamed of being so many things that in the end I am what I dreamed of.

I don’t remember what I wanted to be when I was a child. I don’t think people focused on that very much when I grew up.

Hi there,
While I feel safe in saying that most adults aren’t in their childhood career, I also understand and admire those who followed their dreams. I am in the first group of those who aren’t in their childhood careers as life happened differently. Here is my blog sharing my childhood career: https://grownwomanflow.com/index.php/2023/01/22/who-followed-their-childhood-dream/

Okay! Here I am again. I ended up in the hospital for several days. I could write but couldn’t get things together well enough to post. Here’s the first of several catch-up posts:

[…] During my growing up years, in most Nigerian homes, they were coveted professions that parents chose for their children, Doctor, Pharmacist, Engineer, Lawyer and maybe nurse or teacher for those who are unable to fit into the other ‘chosen professions.’ I ended up studying Law since my language proficiency was considered excellent and my mama felt that my oratory skills would serve better in the law court. To cut a long story short, I have never been in a courtroom nor worked as a lawyer. My career path has vacillated over the years, however, these days, I find that my writing and speaking skills are being used more and more especially nowadays that we have social platforms that offers us the opportunity the embrace our latent skills.
