Ok where do you see yourself, or want to be in say the next 5-10 years or so give or take?

I will hopefully be married and either have a child or hopfully preggers with one. I want my first one to be a girl and look like me LOL!!! I will most likely be living in Fort McMurry with Tyler as he is going to school to be a Minning Engineer or somewhere remote because that is where all the mines are in remote places. I have not gone to school yet, so I will hopefully have gone to school and have graduated as it is only a two year program. I hope I am healthy and happy with a Cane Corso by side LOL!

hmmm..
5 years- I'll be 20. I better be healthy. Be in a college already, hopefully have some idea of what I want to do :p

10 years- 25. doing good in school, I dont really know how long i'm going to be in college, depending on what I want to do. If i graduated already, I hope I am doing good at work and have a successful career. Maybe have a loft in a big city, one that allows dogs of course, because I'm taking Pepper with me. I'd like to be doing something with modeling and maybe photography on my spare time. I'd love to be famous for something, but not something infamous. Maybe by then they would have a magic pill for CF so I don't have to do ANY of my treatments, but be super healthy! Ummm, let see, I would have liked to have gone backpacking somewhere in Europe by then, seen for sure atleast two different continents. Above all though, I just really want to be healthy enough to be able to achieve all the above and have nothing stop me.

In about 5 years I imagine I will have had baby #2 with possible baby #3 on the way. Hopefully we will be moved or close to moving into a bigger house, with a lot more land. And I hope that I will have a successful small business, probably sewing.

10 years - possibly have had baby #4 (and last, if we have the means), and just being happy, if everything came true in the 5 year one...

5 years. Still married of course, maybe with a kid or 2. Hopefully no longer living in this **** hole town... preferably living in a big house on the outskirts of Columbus with a fenced in backyard for my doggies. Hopefully I'll have a new job that I love. Credit card debt will be a thing long in the past (actually I'm hoping for that to go away in the next year.) Ooh, I'll definitely have a new car by then I think, although I also hope that my CRV lasts at least another year or 2. Hopefully the other car will be paid off.

10 years. Now that's hard to imagine... I'll be 37. That's like.. wow. Hopefully I'll have all my kids out by then, since I'll be nearing the age in which it becomes riskier to get pregnant. Hopefully I'll still have an awesome job that I love. Of course I'll still have Justin. I bet he'll have advanced at his job and be making more money. We'll live in a big awesome house that we love in an area that we love that has good schools.

In five years I'll have a four year old child. Schooling will be complete and I'll be in my career of choice.

Ten years I'll have a nine year old child, in my career of choice, hopefully purchasing a home for us and sadly probably having to look at getting a new K-9 as Bandit will be elderly.

I don't really over plan anything. I have goals and wants like everyone else, but as my mother has always said. "The only thing consistent in life is change". So if my path to it sways a bit, so be it. I'll get there eventually.

Hmmmmm, 5 years, still married of course, our youngest will be 15. That means I will have a 15 + 18 year old still at home most likely, so I guess my biggest goal is to have the other 3 OUT OF THE HOUSE and taking care of themselves, LOL, hopefully with their college degree in hand.

10 years, still married to my love and our youngest will be 20. Hopefully he'll be the only one left at home, still in college or maybe even........dare I dream it? AWAY at college! WOOT!

In my FONDEST dream of dreams, I will be living out in the boonies with at least 10 acres in the next 5 years. (as I type this my neighbors are BLARING music while washing the car......ya, town living sucks, LOL) Gardening for our own needs, maybe have some chickens and goats as well.

I'm a fairly easy person to please, not overly ambitious........just a little land away from town, kids that take care of themselves, and my love by my side will make me happy till I die :D

Years ago I read that everyone should write down ages of their loved ones will be in 5 and 10 years . At that time my family didn't bother me , but my dogs sure did ! We must be aware of things to come for our sanity . None of us are immortal .

Within 5 years I hope to own a home, and have made it to Italy :) Ten years from now, hopefully I've finally settled on a career and started a successful progression upwards.

5 years - I'll be 33, in the Million Dollar club with Passion Parties, own a decent sized house on the outskirts of the city so no one complains about my pack of dogs. Hopefully will be in the middle of a good streak of racing for the MRA. Have a published book and sold some photographs. May or may not be married or in a relationship. Really can't bring myself to care either way. Don't really see kids in there.

10 - I'll be 38, proud leader of a 5 Million Dollar team, traveling the world and doing whatever strikes my fancy. Probably still living in Colorado, though I may have moved to somewhere a bit more green/possessed of water sources.

I don't make many long term plans anymore that don't involve some measure of flexibility, because if there's anything I've learned over the years, is that what I plan will do the exact opposite in many cases.

I want atleast my Cert III in Dog behaviour and training and atleast one more dog.
I would have hopefully completed my hairdressing apprenticeship and be supporting myself all on my own. I want to have a mortgage before I turn 30.

I have no idea where I will be living, parts of me really want to move to Melbourne, other parts say it makes sense to live in Brisbane or Sydney but I have finally found a place here that I have friends. Theres a big part of me that just wants to settle and have the same people around me in 5-10 years as opposed to moving yet again.

5 years: I'll be 26, still living here in this same house, hopefully we'll have child # 1, possibly have child #2 on the way. The college degree will be completed, and hopefully I'll have started a small business from home. Hopefully Molly and Hailey will be growing out of their spazziness.

10 years: I'll be 31, hopefully by now we've moved a little ways out into the country. I can have a huge garden and a little orchard, lots of chickens, a few cows and even maybe some horses. My small business will hopefully have thrived the past 5 years. We'll hopefully be at a place in our lives where we can adopt. Molly and Hailey will have settled into their old age and are now non-spazzy faithful companions. Hopefully Pita will still be alive to be a mouse-catching farm cat, but at that point he'll be 18, so we'll see about that.

5 years: (31 years old) New (better) job and hopefully on the way to finishing my degree part time. Married, at least one of our kids crawling/toddling around - but hopefully two ;) In a house that we own, with a big yard and a garden.

10 years: (36 years old) Still married and happy, happy in my job, finished with babies and onto school-age kids. Active with my dogs in some kind of dog sport or obedience. Active in rescue (either dog or cat) and fostering.

I don't dream big, just simply!
