I’m telling you – it’s completely addictive! After a year in the RV, Rod and I can’t even imagine going back to living in one place again. We may want to get a house again and be stationary at some point, but right now it’s not something we can even begin to picture ourselves doing. The pleasure we get from traveling makes all the “inconveniences” irrelevant.

Then, of course, they’d be stranded in the woods, pooped and thirsty. Maybe dogs are too impulsive to have big dreams.

I had a dream to be an exotic animal vet at a zoo, but wound up going to a different school so I could “try on” someone else’s dream. It didn’t last very long. But, even still, I wouldn’t trade the life I got for a do-over for anything.

I do have a dream to travel abroad someday, but since I can’t afford it, I watch a lot of “An Idiot Abroad” (Science Channel – you’d love it) and live vicariously through others.

Unless the door slams shut in your face, keep the sailing dream alive. 🙂 At least keep sailing! It obviously suits you well!

By the way, I love walking around in bare feet inside and out.
And in the winter I love the fluffiest, cushioniest slippers I can find.

I used to make these sweeping, lofty goals… and I realized I was never meeting any of them. So, this year when I was thinking about goals, I decided to think of things that I wanted to try/accomplish, and broke them down into smaller pieces. I’m not really sure what my dream is at this point – sometimes I worry that I’m too scattered. What’s that saying? A jack of all trades is master of none? However, I think that I’m treating this as a year of discovery and trying to figure out which of my disparate interests I’d like to pursue more seriously. I’m easing in to a few different things, and we’ll see which one really takes hold.

(However, I need to snap out of my annual February doldrums and catch back up on blogging and blog reading! I think that’s going to have to be step one.)

Unfortunately, it doesn’t need saving (not by him and his methods of manic barking, anyway).

My dream, I suppose, is to conquer my fear of failure enough to attempt my dreams. As my life evolves and changes, I’m hoping that I’ll have the courage to tackle all my fears head-on. If I can survive the next six months to a year, I think I’ll survive anything.

We all have to try on different hats and live our dreams, even if it’s on a small scale!

Even with my speech impediment (damn cancer), I am often better at pronouncing odd and difficult words than my colleagues; I love words. OK, I won’t make the Olympics but a friend has a horse I can ride….I need to make the time and find my saddles like you sailing in your home.

At thirty, I still don’t know what I want to be when I grow up. It’s why I just studied a subject I loved in unversity instead of learning something practical in order to get a job. I’m always so envious of people like yourself who seem to know exactly what they want.

Maybe that’s my dream? To figure out what my dream is?

I don’t think my dog ever dreams of being someone else. Maybe in brief spurts. Like if another dog has a treat and she doesn’t. 😛

It is very smart of you to work in this manner, I don’t think I could manage in a 1 x 1 space. I can barely manage in a 6 x 6.
