Feeling 43 and it SUCKS!

I'm so tired. This job, although convenient, is draining the life out of me! I'm a babysitter (really, a nanny) for two girls, and I literally feel like more of a mother than their real mother. Don't get me started on her... she's a mess. I feel sorry for the girls that they don't have a mother-figure in their lives and I'm happy to be there for them but I can't deal any longer. I'm literally living the life of a suburban mom and it sucks! I'm 23 but I feel 43!

I want a real job ASAHP (as soon as humanely possible) but I don't even know what I could get since I only have an Associate's degree in something so oddly specific. I've got to find some job that combines Visual Presentation/Display with health food/restauranting. Maybe I can work at a vegan bakery or something? Suffer the $9/hour for experience and fun. Hmm... something to look into.

Career Options

These are the careers I would love to have:

* High school health teacher
* Health food product developer
* Travel Channel show host (like Samantha Brown, but cooler)
* Buyer for kitschy store (like Anthropologie)

ALSO,

Owner/Operator of:
- Healthy Fast Food Chain
- Healthy Food Truck (NYC)
- Healthy "Themed" Restaurant/Cafe (NYC)
- Boutique: Imported Crafts (Mexico, India...)
- Furniture Store: Imported (Morocco, Thailand, India)


I just finished a semester in a Foods & Nutrition major but I'm not going to stick with it, at least at this school. The program itself is really geared towards being a Clinical Dietician, aka working in a doctor's office or hospital, which is so far from what I want to do. I liked my Nutrition class a lot, but the others (including Anatomy & Physiology and Inorganic Chemistry) were hard for me to get through. Then again, certain units like reproduction were quite enjoyable ;)

Now what I'm really wondering is if I should continue Nutrition at another school or try a specific Health Education major. Would a Health Ed major be too limiting? Or would a Nutrition major be too geared towards a career in dietetics?

or, should I drop everything and go for my ultimate goal of being a business owner? Can I even start a business being as broke and clueless as I am? My biggest worry is that I will waste my time and effort trying to build up a business while some bigger stronger business just eats me up.

Should I be focusing on one career at a time, or can I keep two in mind just in case one doesn't work out? What am I supposed to do??

First post!

I'm starting this blog for myself, as a way to push myself forward to my goals. At this point in my life I'm not happy, and I'm not the person I want to be. Perhaps blogging can help me discover what's holding me back?
