Dreams, Plan and Goals

For a long time I've lived without any dreams for the future.  Ok, the standard I will work and pay into a retirement account and eventually retire to some place warm and cheap.  But no specific dreams to work toward.

I think its time I start dreaming so that I have a goal to work toward.  Something to look forward to in the future. Its always going to be a work in progress cause a better idea or desire may strike.

I imagine you should have short term and long term plans and goals.  Right now, I'm working on the long term dreams.  Once they are some what established, I can work out the short term goals in order to get to the big dream at the end of the rainbow.

I want to travel and see the country and maybe even the world.  There is so much to explore and see. So much that I haven't seen cause I've lived in one place all my life.

After experiencing RV life with my parents, I think that would be a really neat way to travel around.  It would be like taking my apartment with me.  I don't know if I want to choose between an RV or a trailer.  With the RV, you park it, hook up and your there.  Unless you trail a vehicle behind the RV.  But I do have a vision of me riding around towns on a little pink and purple scooter that rides the back of the RV.

Cute, Right?
This is not me...YET

Of course, then there would be the trailer option.  Yes, you park and hook up but you also detach the truck and have the freedom to explore outside the camp grounds. But it might not be as cute as me on the scooter.
                                                  

Its feels good to have a dream.  Something to work toward.

I Love My Bed

I love my bed.  My bed sits up high, so high I need a stool to get into it.  I have lots of fluffy and soft pillows. In the winter there are blankets and comforters galore!  I snuggle up with my pillows and my pets and my eReader and all is right with the world.  Usually.

I sleep all spread out, from corner to corner.  Its been a long time since I've shared my bed with someone other than the 4 legged animals.  Even when I was married, he was on nights so I've had lots of time to hog the bed.

One thing I've never missed in my bed is another person to share it with.  I love being able to sleep corner to corner if I wanted.  BUT, the other night I found myself wishing there was someone to hold me, to remind me that everything would be ok, that I am strong enough to do this, that I was not alone in this.

Ultimately, I know that I am not alone.  I have wonderful family and friends and my posse'.  But at 2 am, its sometimes hard to remember the wonderfulness I have surrounding me.

But at 2 am, I have my bed.  My wonderful, high, full of pillows and comforters bed.

I love my bed.
