Life altering decisions

This week has faced me with some life changing decisions. Should I switch careers or not? Yes, my degree is in travel and I am working in my field but I have learned that I am not cut out for this field. I need more of a challenge in life. Right now my hardest decision every day is facebook or myspace. So it has be thinking about my next move. Do I stay where I am and continue school? If I do that do I really want to be a teacher or should I look into other majors. Or, the new opportunity that I am faced with, do I go into the insurance business? Yes, I have a lead on a job getting into the insurance business. Not just any insurance agency, my current employers biggest rival. Do I take this on and burn the bridges with Williams? Am I cut out for insurance? A year from now am I going to be asking myself these same questions?

Then we are also faced with what we want to do about having a baby. If Dan goes to the State Police the academy will most likely start in February and would go to August. If we get pregnant between now and the end of October he will be in the academy for the birth of our baby. However, the start date is not set in stone and he may not go until September he will not know when he is going until 3 weeks before it starts. So it is a gamble. Nobody is saying we will even get pregnant between now and October and with all the trouble we are having do we keep trying and work it out when the time comes or do we wait until November to continue to try? Or do we wait until the academy is behind us? I feel that if anything I rather be pregnant when he is away then have the baby or be raising our baby without him. I know it would really bother Dan if he missed out on the birth or any time with our child. It is a tough call that we need to continue to talk and pray about.
