#WondrousWednesday
@Eggs (thanks for the tag! 😘

I've been out of town, so I'm a tad behind.
1. If I helped to make one child a better reader and writer after teaching for 28 years, I would happily say #myworkisdone.
2. My idea everything would have been to not have had to work but to have been able to use my teaching skills as volunteer at my local library, maybe helping adults learn how to read.
3. Retirement? #heckya! 🤩

#WondrousWednesday

1) Starting a non-profit and advocating for the clients we served
2) when I worked full time I liked 4 10‘s best when I could make it happen
3) My grandfather wanted one of his 5 children to be an accountant. All 5 went to college (which in their circumstance was quite an accomplishment) but he got 3 teachers, an engineer and a CEO instead. It always pleased me that I filled that dream although he didn‘t live to see it.
@Eggs

1. Helping kids gain confidence in their ability to write and communicate, introducing them to the beauty of poetry and the written word, and helping them rediscover the joy of reading.
2. I stopped believing that balance is possible. 🤷‍♀️
3. I used to love to play school, so yes!

1– when I worked at a children‘s shelter, one of the teens I was supervising got into the medication box before my shift started. The shifts switched, & I came on duty only to find that he‘d overdosed. I drove him to the hospital. It‘s been 25 years, & I still think about him and hope he‘s okay.

2– working from home, with the confidence & drive to support myself creatively.

3– No, but I did that career for a while & decided it wasn‘t for me.

1) I volunteered to help a homeless veteran with some employment law issues, got them resolved in his favor, then went on to help him with a place to live and with donations from my law firm bought him a wardrobe and helped with rent. He and I then did a speaking tour for the TX State Bar promoting lawyers volunteering to help veterans

2) At 55 and a partner in my firm, my time can be flexible, so now is pretty good

3) 👍🏻

1️⃣ Back when I worked for myself I helped a local company with embezzlement. I did some forensic accounting and helped prove that an employee stole over 350K. They were able to recover all the money.
2️⃣ At my age, my balance is no work. However, I still work around 35 hours.
3️⃣ Nope. I wanted to ride horses for a living.

1) The most important thing to me has been mentoring young adults new to the work force
2) Working from home 6:30-2:30
3) Nope! Had no idea my job existed. (Market research IT)

I'm gonna combo platter these my most recent job was working my country's last federal election. The most exhausting and the most rewarding. Not a job I ever considered on my own. My grandmother got me work on my first provincial election. My ideal work life balance would be working 3 full days a week with the rest of the week off. Ideally making enough money to own my own home and have a few pets. #wondrouswednesday
