A wife or husband is not something I'll be looking for that's for sure. I thoroughly enjoy being on my own and making all decisions by myself - getting exactly what *I* want.

No more kids for me either - at least not of the two-legged variety


I do want to make a committment of taking better care of myself and getting my finances in order. Once I move into my new house, there really isn't much else I need, so retirement planning is on order - sheeshhh..... Along with that would be to really think about what I want to do with my life - workwise. I don't want to be in my job for too much longer and I certainly want to retire before 65. Perhaps I will eventually act on my dreams and open that pet store I've been dreaming of.... If so, I need to come up with a good and solid plan and work on it - dreaming alone will not accomplish anything.

Then, all I really need to do to keep my health up is to find ways to relax for once. I feel so unbelievably stressed out, I just want to crawl into a hole and stay there and fade away. Haven't had proper vacations/time off in such a long time and now if I do have a week off, I don't know how to relax. I still end up running around like crazy.

Finally, I want to go on vacations that *I* like - without pressure of what is expected of me and what my family expects of me. I really need to listen to myself and do what is good for me and be a bit less pre-occupied with accomodating other people.

My goals are a bit less defined, but I feel like I've been there done that already for most things, so now it is time to BE ME!
