To Career or not to Career...

How do I always get here?  Weeks without posting, feeling guilty about it, and having to try and remember everything to update.  Boo on me!

My latest dilemma...

I took a non design related position about a 6 weeks ago.  My unemployment was running out and the market for designers hadn't even started to go up.  In taking this job I took a 35% cut in pay.  This was not easy for me to do.  Once you work for a certain pay amount, it is hard to take less then that.  I have really been enjoying my job and find that my days go fast and the work is fun.  I also have Fridays off which is wonderful. 

On Friday I checked my email and had an email from a commercial furniture dealership saying that they were hiring another designer and wanted to meet with me.  I interviewed with them yesterday and am now waiting to hear.  I am so torn about this. 

Getting this job would put me back into my field, doing what I love and getting paid a lot better.  It would also take away wearing jeans to work and having Friday off.  It would also add pressure and overtime, but the pay would be MUCH better. 

I think the biggest hangup I have to this new position is that it feels more like a career.  I don't want a career, I want to be a mom.  I want to spend my days taking my kids to the park, seeing the animals at the zoo, playing in the snow, just savoring every mom moment.  Taking a "career" job some how makes me feel like I would be farther away from that goal. 

I know my success in having a baby doesn't matter where I am working.  I can leave one company just as easy as another.  I have tried to explain this feeling to my mom and husband, but they don't get it.  They can't see why I wouldn't be excited about a job that I like to do and that pays well. 

Am I just crazy or has anyone else felt this way?  I guess right now I don't want anything that feels farther away from my dream.  But dreams don't always come true....
