What’s your biggest goal in life right now? Why?

1. Move.

You said biggest goal, so that is my biggest goal. I want to move and have my own/rented place. I really want that. Why? Hmm. Independence, happiness, room to do arts and crafts, cook, all the happiness being in a nice place will bring. :) I count my lucky stars, all the time, that I don't live in a rough area.

Traveling means a lot to me, so I want to visit all the countries around the world, it's one of my main goals. I am trying to travel more often and I've already visited more than 15 countries.

I want to retire, or at least be part-time. Even though I love my work, each year I find I have less energy for working around the clock. I want to garden and canoe and play banjo. :D

Find myself proper employment (even though I am getting help finding work) and finding myself my own place that I can buy or rent.

I think you are amazing to be able to live in London. I don't think I could do it.

My Goals.
____________

At the moment... Survive.

Future. Live in a certain area and find a lady with a lovely heart and personality and get married.

It is very hard for me to even think of a job at the moment as even as I type this I feel te fringes of a partial shutdown as lately I have been quite delicate.

I have the most supurb Mum I have ever known. She maybe the only Mum I have ever known... But she is absolutely the best Mum I can think of. And I know she has autistic traits, but she doesn't struggle like I find myself doing at the moment. I want her to live forever. Ummm. But never get old, as age has difficulties...

Anyway. Those are a few thoughts.

Thank you. I actually do not live in London, I live in Essex. I was born and partly raised in London.

Right now? Buy a place of my own. As things are right now, it should be possible in the following 1-3 years. I'll need a loan of course, but the point is that I would no longer be renting. As for why, well, it's a relatively safe investment and having my own place would mean being able to hang a picture or two where ever I want in the place without asking the landlord a permission for every nail and other small change.

Essex. Umm. I think that is near London? When I see London on the map I think it looks about 100 miles accross. Haha. Well. To me the whole of the South East is London. Haha. It is like I see the busiest areas on the map which are the South East, Birmngham etc and catagorize the whole area as either London or Birmingham in my mind.

Short term: tidying up my apartment once the plumbers are done with their thing.

Mid-term: general striving towards a higher standard in every regard.

Long term: World domination.

It's one of the home counties (counties that surround London). Everything here probably is pretty small compared to the US.

Edit: Huh, you live in Wales. I dunno what to say to that!

Yes. Wales. It is home. I know I live in Wales because when I have been out of Wales (It has been known on one of those rare accidental occasions), and then I come back into Wales (Phew! Feelings of relief etc! Haha!) I see a sign that says "Welcome to Wales".

To find a job with a steady daytime schedule, no overtime, good benefits, good pay, friendly co-workers, low stress, minimal or no customer interaction, preferably physically active.

Probably doesn't exist, but a girl can dream... :D
