52 Lists - Snafu and Weeks 22 & 23

You know I don't make up the topic of the 52 lists for every week, right?  I found the idea on Pintrest and copy her prompts every week.  Well, Houston, we have a problem.  She stopped after week 21 back in 2013.  I can't find the rest of the lists anywhere!  Also her blog is no longer active, so I can't even post a comment to ask.  I feel so let down!  

Now accepting ideas for lists the last half of the year!  

I will attempt to make up my own lists (aka steal from other lists I found googling online)

Week 22 - List the jobs you've had
  • Local, weekly newspaper delivery.  My brother signed up to deliver the local New Hope paper once a week, when he lost interest I took it over for awhile.  I think my dad ended up doing for awhile too.
  • Proex - I worked there part time in high school developing rolls of film people dropped off and was trained to take portraits for family pics, xmas cards, etc
  • Babysitter/Nanny/Slave - started when I was a pre-teen trying to start my own Babysitter's Club that exists much more successfully today!  
  • Paralegal Assistant - in college I worked part time at a big law firm in Milwaukee, mostly for Corporate attorneys.  I actually ended up doing a lot more babysitting for the partners than I did in a professional capacity (the pay was a lot better too)!  
  • Target Executive Team Lead - co-managed a store in Brooklyn Center.  I was one of the nerds in red and khaki wearing the walkie talkies and getting yelled at because we would not accept a 30 cent expired coupon or comping a customer a free pair of shoes because some a-hole stole someone's as she was trying on a pair.  Worst job ever.  EVER!  My parents even hated that job; I was living at home at the time, and they begged me to quit.
  • Reinsurance broker - the fleeing of Target led me to a career I never knew existed and I'm still here 9 years later.  I rock spreadsheets, pretend to understand what actuaries are saying, manage projects, and occasionally get to wine and dine clients.  
  • Real estate agent - playing with this career on the side has been a lovely hobby that I sometimes make money doing.  


Week 23 - Favorite childhood TV shows
  • Duck Tales
  • Rescue Rangers
  • Jem
  • He-Man, by the power of Greyskull!
  • Xmen
  • Price is Right
  • Matlock (watched this with my Grandma Mel all the time; also Love Boat if I was home sick from school)
  • Full House
  • Fresh Prince
  • Saved by the Bell (I stumbled across this one day and was hooked; it was the episode where Jessy got addicted to caffeine pills--scandalous!)
  • Dr Quinn, Medicine Woman -- this was a family night show
  • Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
  • The Jetsons
