| May 26th Prompt: Make a list of your top 5 short term goals and a separate list of your top 5 long term goals. What steps will you take to achieve them? Am I makin' a list and checkin' it twice? I'm not much of a long range planner, or a list creator. This prompt is a puzzler. I've never owned, or kept a day planner . Do I have goals? Well, here are my short term goals as I see them at this moment. 1. Drag my hubby kicking and screaming if need be to a dental surgeon for some much needed 'work'. The sooner this happens the better. 2. Enjoy a return trip / visit to British Columbia. There's so much more for me to explore in this gorgeous province. 3. Finally travel to Newfoundland. Two years ago, I'd anticipated this trip, but a knee replacement sabotaged that idea. 3. Spend more time with grandgiggle number three before she begins school. I know she's two-years old now, but time passes far too quickly. Once she becomes a student her time will be limited. 4. Splurge and dine in a restaurant again. Stupid Covid has scuttled similar plans for over a year now. 5. Walk into a movie theatre to satisfy a spontaneous urge to view a movie, any movie. Again, Covid has denied me and many others this privilege. Okay, let's see what my long term goals are... 1. Muster enough gumption and grit to undergo a second knee replacement. My right knee isn't going to limp along for much longer. When this happens, I shall possess a matching pair. 2. Live long enough and hopefully beyond to attend my youngest grandgiggle's university graduation. I figure that will be approximately twenty years in the future. A corollary goal is to encourage, not push, her to accomplish this. 3. Perhaps write enough and organize enough to publish a book. If this does not happen, I will not be overly disappointed. At least I will have created and attempted to create more stories. The journey will be my reward. 4. Retire. Hubby and I will get there some day. Imagine the extra time on our hands to fritter away, or whatever. 5. Purchase a new RV, or motorhome and live in it as my hubby and I travel at whim. If we wish to avoid snow and freezing temperatures, we will. |
