Where do you see yourself in 10 years? – Another good question from the Daily Writing prompt.
Ah, 10 years from now. I’ll be in the same wonderful home, with my better saying we’re hiring someone to do the yard work instead of you this year. And it might be the first year she wins that argument.
Like this year, I’m planning cookouts for family and friends all spring, summer, and fall.
I’m getting ready for a short trip with my better half. And a solo day trip to the beach.
I hope to watch my granddaughter in some high school activities and my grandson in middle school. And who knows, maybe another one or two behind them.
I’ll have 20 years of blogging under my belt, hopefully, a few books written and completed. I hope to look at my photo library today and see it dwarfed by the last 10 years of work added to it. I will have become proficient in woodworking skills and created a few pieces.
The Miata will be 18 years old at that point so I’m sure I’ll have rebuilt it by then. And yes I’ll still be getting a lot of seat time. No matter how difficult it is to get in and out of it.
A thought I had while writing this was I hope I’m still here. I find due to previous experiences with cancer I have this switch in my mind that I can’t find to turn off. It’s this uncertain feeling. It helps you look at every day better but you get very nervous looking out ahead.
In 10 years I’ll look back at this post and set thoughts forward on another 10 years. Think positive.
