Career choice

Lately I have found it very hard to juggle work and my personal life. I have only been working my regular 40 hours but for some reason I have been feeling completely overwhelmed. Part of it is that my fiance and I are getting ready to move into our new house as well as trying to plan a wedding. I can't even imagine how overwhelmed I would feel if I children. This has really gotten me thinking about my career choice. For the last couple of years I have been thinking that I would like to be a Catering Manager. I have always known that Catering Managers work long hours and I didn't think it would bother me. But the more I think about it, the more I think that I would resent working more than 40 hours once I have children. I don't want to be a totally stressed out wife and mother! Since I don't plan on having children for a few years I think I will still give the Catering Manager position a try but I'm not sure that I will make it my career. I'm just glad I am still young enough to experiment with different positions before I have to start helping to providing for a family. This internship is really giving me a new perspective on my career choice and my life.
