Should I move--sooner or later--from my big family house?
and to where: near one of my bi-coastal children or stay here "alone"?
and to what: a condo, apartment, smaller house?
[It's been 4 1/2 years since my husband died,and I'm beginning to want
to start a "new" life with a new home.
I'd go to the South-Sea Islands like Tahiti and Bali, take the Trans-Siberian
railway from Vladivostok to Moscow, study ancient Egyptian ruins in the
Nile valley, take in a safari in Kenya in a six-month long trip around
the world.
My goal now is to retire without debt in 5 years. I'll
always have a mortgage and car payment, but the credit cards will be GONE.
and I'm moving along towards that goal very nicely. should be free of
those interest rates in another year or so!
'Moving foreward' means going ahead with your intentions
almost totally regardless of the pitfalls put on the way. Especially those
that come up after you start on your course. I just bought a house having
walked thru it once. Then I took a trip and when I came back, the inspector
found that there were more repairs needed than I saw. I feel like a fool,
but am going ahead with it because I committed to buy the place. Its a
big step, but I have faith (which I feel is a cornerstone of "moving
foreword") that things will work out for the best.
My goal at this point in my life is to go foreward with
style and happiness. When? I believe there is only now. Having said that
brings to mind something I once read,"Live as if you will die tomorrow,
plan as if you will live forever.
To finish three life long dreams, not necessarily in this order:
1) Complete my Bachelor's degree
2) Buy a home
3) Develope a love that will be a life long relationship
EDUCATION....I did graduate High school
Then Ms know it all....started a family...since Kids are grown and out
on thier own...its been on my mind.....but....49 yr old freshman!?
I am working on two of my goals now. I just finished my second book...3
long yrs, a bit more actually..alot of hard work for sure. Now I have
to get them out there to publishers, and cross my fingers. I know rejection
is a given, as it happens to everyone, but I will keep on trying &
never give up on it. I am determined. The other goal I have been working
on is my jewelry line. I am working on my own website..also alot of work,
but will be worth it in the end I am sure. I sell alot of it locally,
but wanted to expand, and what better way than the internet. I figure
if it does this well at a local level...just think how great it will do
on the internet. That is my hope, and those are my dreams and goals, at
this time in my life.
Going back to school would have been one but I am in the process of fininshing
that up now. Two more years and I am Licenced, and if I am brave I will
go for my bach in animal science. The real biggie is to be well enough
and have enough money when I retire to take a cruise to Ireland and see
where my father was raised.
For my goal........sad I don't think I have one right right now......Mine
would be wishful dreaming..but ...hey it could happen someday..Hopefully
when things slow down I will begin thinking seriously about it...For now
I am doing what I have to do..
I don't have any high-reaching goals at this point in my life...
I look forward to being a grandma someday... and I really really want
to travel a lot - both of which I think are definitely going to happen...
eventually...
Have been busy getting one in motion. A complete career change. School
the works!
Well my goal at moment isnt really new or interesting...its been going
on for far too long and is boring the pants off me ...its to get down
to target weight....sighhhh...SOMEDAY!
If I were to set a NEW challenge I think it would be to find a job where
I felt I was helping others. Something more rewarding will open up for
me. For now this is what's available for me so i just need to try and
make it a bit less boring for myself and everyone else around me!
I set many goals for my life and so far I have reached them all except
for this one, just to keep on being happy. I never ask for much but being
happy is a very important one for me.
Right at this time I am very serious about taking a course to be able
to work with abused woman. This is something I have thought on for quite
some time now. All I know is as long as we have air to breathe, we can
never be too old to better ourselves and learn new thing's.
My Goal right now is to do good at my new job. But I also have the goal
to loose weight, and quite smoking, the smoking one I think will have
to wait till I get through the new part of the new job, my nerves are
on edge now!!
I would very much so like to get back into being fit, I have gained 30lbs
over the last 2 years (due to lots of stress). Being overweight is very
uncomfortable for me and painfull on my lower back.. But I haven't been
motivated enough to do anything about it....
New Goal: hmmmmmm.........I think to find a house, an actual house, and
get out of this trailer. I hate it, cause right now I'm trying to write
this book in the living room with kids and distractions. I'm hoping to
be able to start that plan in two years.
A new and lofty goal? hmm.. how about to move the beer fridge closer to
the couch? That would certainly make my life easier!
