To Dream will cost you nothing...


I was recently reading one of my favorite blogs... maybe because it is written by one of my favorite people? Anyway, the topic: Where would you like to be in 14 years. It made me think.

Hmmm

In 14 years, I will be 45 (yikes). Matthew (my baby) will be 18, Drew 21(how fun) and Tyler 22. And yes it was always in the plan to have all children out of the house by my 50th birthday... but now it kind of makes me sad.

Don't get me wrong. There are days when I can't wait for bedtime. There are also times when I just know I need to enjoy the moment before it is gone.

I can't stop time, but I can dream about the future.

So in 14 years I would love to travel... with Tom but I will go with girlfriends if I have to.

Back to Hawaii for 6 months

Spend a year traveling the US



Italy, France, Greece... oh what the heck the whole Mediterranean too



Australia and New Zealand

South Africa


The Azores

Horseback riding in Scotland

Beers in Belgium and Ireland

A summer in Germany

and then maybe finish off the trip. Because I am sure by then I will be ready to be home. Ready to have my boys home from college for a weekend, hear all their crazy stories, give them a hug and enjoy my reward.
And maybe remember where I was when I started to dream...
