    Nada right now. When it gets cold again I'll have some energy and might be able to pick up a side project of some sort. Like researching more about various countries I might decide to live in and various jobs and careers to support myself with when I'm there.

    Getting my own at home business rolling. When I do finally get pregnant then I will be able to stay at home with the baby, saving the cost of child care and still provide a little income for our family.

    What to do about school and work. Nepotism and connections have gotten me all the jobs I've had so far but that method doesn't work for uni, sadly. I'm thinking about giving up on this degree (it's chopped and changed and stopped and started for close to a decade now) and trying something new. I'd like to work in the funeral industry or design hats. One for money, one for fun I guess. I don't think millinery is going to put a roof over my head although it will put a hat over it.

    Losing weight is a piece of cake (pun intended) next to that!

    Currently working a job I can't stand.

    I've also been trying to stay consistent with my writing which is easier said than done.

    Tried to pick up some other hobbies and beating myself up over the fact that I don't have the time to complete/even start some of them.

    I'm on that forever lasting mission to become as rounded as possible.

    1. Developing and establishing this branch of my company in the local market.
    2. Personal wealth and future planning.
    3. Learning about heavy equipment engines and controls.
    4. Learning to play the electric guitar.
    5. Improving my golf game.
    6. Improving strength and growing muscle mass on my legs.

    no particular order, but something new always pops up to spark my interest

    I am the mother of 2 teenage boys and I also own my own business! We are in our first year and struggling to make ends meet. So eating less will help me achieve that! I wish all of you much success in every journey you are on.

    Everything...I believe in constant change and in never being satisfied the version of who I am today...doesn't mean I"m not happy, just means I know there is more around the next bend in my path.
