The $$ they paid me to leave (separation incentive) helped a lot in the decision, and the fact that they paid my insurance for 3 years.<BR/><BR/>Clare the DNA thing is for identifying plants and critters in the field. It needs to have descriptions and facts like a field guide as well.<BR/><BR/>Troutgrrrl I am SUCH a smartypants. Sometimes it gets me in trouble. But I usually just can't resist.<BR/><BR/>Nuthatch, the winter wren has one of my favorite songs! I haven't heard one in a while though. The Eastern Meadowlark song is so relaxing to me. It's like therapy. I've heard them at our place, but they really like the neighbors' better.Ruralityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06616461213179182660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10013142.post-1128205294941691892005-10-01T17:21:00.000-05:002005-10-01T17:21:00.000-05:00Excellent!

Anyway, I find inspiration in your story. My husband and I would like to buy some land and I'd like to write full time.

He interviews a lot of people who either changed careers mid-life or desired to change careers but never got up the courage to do it. I fit in the second category. I can't get comfortable with the idea that I either (1) may not have any money or (2) may not be able to retire if I left the corporate world. I guess financial security means so much to me that I have to be corporate for for the next 25 years.
