Next year: lose 20 pounds, I know it's shallow, but it is what it is
Next 5 years: I hope to be dating someone seriously or possibly remarried and to have saved a substantial sum of money (I am currently working on the second part)
Lifetime: I would love to travel to Italy and London again and I would love to visit Greece.
This made me stop and think. I don't really think I have an official bucket list, but maybe I should! These are things I've always wanted to do, but I'm so not organized enough to have them broken out by timeframe.
-Go to Europe (specifically spain, france and greece) -Learn to scuba dive -Rock a bikini with confidence -Become a senior vice president at my company -Go on an african safari -Be a positive role model to my niece and hope she breaks the pattern of dropping out of school and being a teenage mother -See Alaska -Learn how to give myself a professional looking DIY manicure -Get my ass in gear and start my sewing projects
I don't know that they are goals for this year, but I have plans to: Go on a cruise to Curacao, Aruba, Grand Turk, and the Dominican Republic Go on a cruise to Haiti (beach island), Cozumel and Jamaica
5 years: Travel to the Greek Isles Travel to Austrailia and Tahiti Travel to Napa Travel to Switzerland Find a new job within my company
I want to go to travel to every Major League Baseball stadium in the US and Canada. I want to save enough money to buy a house. Yes I realize my two goals contradict each other LOL!
Within 10 years, I want to adopt a child, even if I'm still single.
* For the next year? Get some debt paid off and figure out once and for all if I want to go back to grad school and finish my masters. Start putting myself out there more socially, start dating.
* The next 5 years? Travel. A lot. Finish said school if I decide to go back. Decide if I am 1 and done or if I want another child. If I do want one then I would like to have #2 in about 3ish years.
* Lifetime goals? Raise my child(ren) to be happy, healthy, and productive members of society. Accept myself and learn to love my flaws. Be more positive. And travel a lot to tropical destinations.

I had a big one on my list that I tackled last year: run a marathon. I did it despite going through a nasty divorce, commuting and working full time and raising my kids on my own. It was an amazing feeling.
The next year: lose 30 pounds. Go to Nashville.
The next 5 years: I would really like to meet someone who I can spend the rest of my life with. I likely won't get married again, but would love to find a true partner for the rest of my life. Not sure this is a true bucket list item, but it is something I want.
Lifetime: I would love to travel more, I'm a bit of a homebody.

Uh. Tomorrow I'd like to unpack the office?
Things have changed so much. The only thing I'm certain of is I am taking a huge trip post graduation. I'm thinking New Zealand but also considering a European excursion.

you know... This is a really good question. I've been concentrating on the day to day so much without really looking that far into the future. I haven't really put together a bucket list. But for the next few months, I'm concentrating on these:
*Pay off my lawyer *move out of my parents' house *keep doing those things that make ME happy *Texas in October!
*I'd like to buy a new car too, but I'm not sure how or where that's going to fit in yet.

In the next year: Just get my shit together enough so that I can make my big move down to the US Virgin Islands. In the next five years: Enjoy my time down in the islands. That's all I got so far.

Texas? What part of Texas??
Not quite sure yet. My biological daughter's 21st birthday. She'll either be at school that week in Waco, or at her parents' house in Houston. She mentioned in conversation not too long ago that it would be awesome if I could take her out for a drink on her birthday and I decided to make that happen.
