15 YEARS ...hmm...well DH and I hoped to move to Florida one day and in 1999, we did ... no more snow and cold weather, so that has been a dream fulfilled.
Aside from that, I have to say I am very content to be where I am in life at this point. Happily married nearly 30 years, seen my daughter graduate high school and college (CUM LAUDE, no less) .. watching her develop into a responsible caring adult has been very rewarding.
Discovering Atkins in 2002, and going on to lose 40+ pounds and keep it off for the past nearly 6 years. Taking up running (something I never DREAMED I could or would attempt) and completing 2 full 26.2 mile marathons at age 50 ...
Well 15 years ago..this month exactly I gave birth to my daughter.. So I am exactly where I wanted to be 15 years later... Just happy being a mom.. Of course I wanted to be thinner..I am bigger
Are you doing now, what you dreamed you would be doing in 15 years time?
In 1992 what did you see yourself doing / being in the year 2007?
I'm not doing what I dreamed I'd be doing... because I can't remember what that was. But... if I did dream anything back then, it's certainly not what I'm doing now, as my life took the most totally unexpected of turns... something I'd never have anticipated in a million years. In some ways though, that's a fulfilment... but not in all ways.
Before and after:
PLEDGING FLIGHTS Completed: 1st set of buildings and mountains (Everest,M.Blanc & Kilimanjaro, twice); Tower Masts & Chimneys; More virtual buildings; Challenger's Choice x 2 (volcanos and mountains on Mars). Currently climbing: Mount Snowdon again: 416/475
Start 10 Jan 2005. Maintenance since Aug. 2005.
F/56yrs/5'.4"
SW:77.7 LW:56.5 CW:60.1 (kilos)
I'd of been 12 and i'd always dreamed of being a pilot... no i'm not one - but i did do 5 years of training and could get my wings if i wanted them... so i guess that fulfilled that part....
