Thanks for all the responses. Just to add to that discussion, if I was doing anything I wanted to it would be “full-time writer” – blogging or writing for magazines/newspapers/etc. However, just about anything that didn’t require sitting around in an office environment 8-10 hours per day would be fine. I didn’t have to work this Labor Day, but back in my Big 4 days I worked many, many a holiday – plus often 7 day weeks, 12 hour days. I certainly didn’t love that job, although I must have had a passion of some sort for it to put up with that abuse…

And while I’m not writing as a way of making a living NOW I will be … soon! That’s my goal. So maybe by Labor Day 2009 or 2011 or so I’ll be able to report back that I’m hard at work, but happy to be doing it.

I would love to open a yarn store…and I wouldn’t work on labor day because I was able to spend time with my boyfriend

I’m with paid twice. I’ll be blogging tomorrow.

In all seriousness, I’m discovering that I love writing, and I’ve known for a long time that I love being a stay at home mom. So I’m already doing my dream job.

I can’t imagine what that job would be….
Ok, I got one – if I was independantly wealthy and managing my own finances, then I would turn on the computer on a holiday to check and see how the investments were doing .

Sadly, I actually did go to work for several hours on Bank Holiday Monday last week. Even though I love my job, its sad because no one should let their job define them.
