It worked last year when I turned my chocolate passion into a business creating chocolate truffles, unfortunately I sold that business when we my husbands job moved us. Now I just need to figure out how to do that with something else...maybe that will work for you too?

I am willing to make a change and go after a career that will make me happy, I just have no idea what that career is, or how to begin pursuing it! As of now (outside of the 2 careers I loathe) I have no marketable skillset. I'm not a spring chicken, either - and as the previous comment notes - options become more limited as time passes :(Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1119835366472826427.post-5298221982682913802013-02-21T21:10:17.690-05:002013-02-21T21:10:17.690-05:00Another thought...

It's harder for me to get a decent job now that I'm older. My college education has become obsolete. That happens very quickly! But now I don't have the time or money to go back to school just so I can get a better job. Your options become more limited, but you just need to be flexible and creative. It doesn't have to be the end. :0)Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04138128962045818233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1119835366472826427.post-52177227473301977052013-02-21T19:59:06.137-05:002013-02-21T19:59:06.137-05:00True!
