I have to admit, when co-workers do NOT make me batty, I already have my dream job.

I am an Early Childcare Educator, I get paid to play, cut and paste, paint and read books every day!


message 7: by Corazon (new)

Corazon (corazonsliterature) I have my dream job since many years.
I had (and have) always a concrete conception how my life should go on. So I always have done what I want. Life is too short and precious, so you must live it as if tomorrow would be your last day.

Cindy (eclecticfirefly) (eclecticfirefly) | 1237 comments I've been saying for years that I will have to work at least part time at a bookstore to be able to continue supporting my DLPS when I retire.

FYI - DLPS is Delusional Literary Purchase Syndrome: The conviction that buying 20 books per week is the same thing as reading them.

message 22: by Missyb (new)

Missyb | 71 comments Help, I started a challenge in this group and now cannot find it. It was for all of 2012. It's called: Seasons Of Love Challenge.
It had 27 total books to be read, and had 3 parts to it.
Part 1, #1 was to read a book with Day in the title or series name, or Light in the title or series name, or cover showing natural source of light, or yellow cover, or white cover.
Part 2, #2 was to read a book with a blue cover, or a white cover.
Part 3, #1 was to read a book, series, or author with the letter L, O, V, E in it (4 books to complete)

I looked through the challenges listed, but could not find it. Any help directing me to it would be apreciated.

message 30: by Nerdy Werewolf (new)

Nerdy Werewolf (nerdywerewolf) | 217 comments No one's written in this one in a while... :)

My second favorite activity/pastime outside of reading or WWE, would be drawing/painting. I love how it makes me feel when I'm creating something...even if no one will ever call it 'great art'...LOL.

Dream job? In all honesty? Some type of clerical work. I'm good at it and there's always a new challenge. Kinda doing it now. If I did something I considered 'fun' for work, I don't think it'd be fun anymore...

Savannah Haley | 4 comments My second favorite thing to do is to crochet. My dream job would be helping veterans when the system fails them.
