I cannot give any advice about changing careers, in that I have never done it, BUT I have always felt strongly about people taking control of their lives and their happiness. I think if you're not content with what you're doing, then you should make a change. From what I know of you Betsy, you're a very strong woman, and I encourage you to do what you need to do to be happy!

Not that we don't all have bad days, where we need to complain, or vent, because we ALL do, but I cannot stand those women who complain about everything, but do nothing to change it. We are given a lot of options in our lives, and I think we should use them, to make the most of our lives. If we're not happy, then we're not giving our best to ourselves or our families.

Do what your heart leads you to do! Change is always a bit scarey, but also necessary. Have you read Who Moved My Cheese? It is a GREAT BOOK to help people deal with change!
