I've done alot of wild &
I've done alot of wild & crazy things & lived a very fun and impulsive lifestyle. For my big dream I'm staying realistic & I have 2 things - the first is to move into a bigger house as we're outgrowing ours, one with another building on the property (or the $$ to build one) for Tim's shop (he owns his own sign business). He works ALL THE TIME, and it's actually his dream to have the house/shop on 1 property combo. This way we will all have more time together, and I can go back to working with him -i did book-keeping, office stuff but I also want to learn more computer graphics and help with the design aspect.
And my #2 dream is to be a published author. I've always been a writer of short stories, poetry, and songs and journals, but I've always had a passion for writing. This one I'm working on, too, I started writing a book on my cancer experience a few weeks ago & take time to work on it every day. There wasn't much out there when I was first diagnosed that I could relate to, and there certainly were very few photos that I could find regarding bilateral mastectomy, reconstruction, expanders, etc. I had my husband take pictures of me & my procedures all the way, so that we could document everything & tell our story as a family -mainly my story, but also things from my husband's and daughter's points of view as well. And, i should add that our dream house/shop combo will have a big barn & lots of room for all the rescued dogs, cats, pigs, and baby goats that we'll also have, lol!
this is a fun post!

i always wanted to open my own little deli/restaurant, but i hear that is a lot of hours and work. I even have little recipes that i would make, all homemade salads, meatballs, homemade cookies...everything homemade...maybe one day. And after that, i would love to live in a small cottage on the beach. I would love to walk out my door and feel the sand on my feet, not have to get dressed up for anything, I just keep thinking of these things whenever i am down and i know that one day it will come true0 -
Thowing in the towel on my diet - I'm volunteering my services as Taste Tester, please send goodies!!!
I love to sing, but have no talent. Dreamed of acting - like the great actresses of the 40's & 50's.
Wanted (& still do) to live where the water is some shade of aqua-turquoise and the sand is white (and maybe have cabanna boys!)

move
I would love to move back to the state I grew up in--Maryland. And live on a lot of property so that I could adopt a lot of little kittens/cats and dogs...lots of dogs. They could have love and run free and be taken care of with nothing to worry about. And while someone would pet sit, I would get in my small RV and drive all around America and Canada--camping.0 -

I'm almost 67 and work full time here in Indiana. I would LOVE to be able to retire and move to Connecticut to be closer to my son, wonderful daughter-in-law ... and 2 grandsons. They are growing so fast ... and I miss them so much.
Unfortunately ... retirement isn't in the cards for me ... now or ever. Can't make it financially ... so I'll just be here working until one day I get lost on my way home and just wander off into the sunset. :-)

I too want to be in Connecticut
Why can't move and work there? I don't want you to get lost in the sunset (;
Please keep your fingers crossed that I get my mortgage and can make my move.
I am getting antsy here in AZ - the heat will be here soon and I want to be gone
by then.

This may be a little off the
This may be a little off the track, but I would like to spend an hour with my mother. She died when I was 40 and my son was 5. I miss her so much. I'd like her to see my family, see how I handled my breast cancer (she died from bone marrow cancer) with grace. Her advice would be welcome sweetness to my ears. I would tell her how we finally moved my father, her only love, to Arizona last October and he is doing great at 88! I would tell her what a wonderful mother she was. She did so many things right and I think she worried that she didn't. I'd like her to know how much I appreciate all the sacrifices she and Dad made in our early years when things were very lean. She was a wonderful person and I wish my son could have known her. I wish I could have had more life with her. That is my dream. Maybe telling all of you this will be enough.
