Since that time I have written a book (that is yet to be published), indulged my right brain, dabbled in politics (strictly from an advocate point of view), focused on family and health, watched several soccer games, gotten on my teenagers nerves, played "housewife", caught up on the latest marketing trends in web & social media, and generally, as my aunt puts it, "practiced retirement."
But the reality is, I am still trying to figure it out. And there is one part of me that said, don't let this anniversary pass without acknowledging it. And, more importantly, don't let this next year pass without figuring it out.
And so, my challenge is to figure it out....to find myself before I turn fifty which is just over 13 months away. Besides, I'll need to figure something out to actually bring in an income.
I think I'll use this blog to help me get there.

Hi Roz,
ReplyDeleteDidn't realize all the drama going on with you! Your topic sparked my interest because we will both turn 50 a day apart and it got me to thinking about what I will have accomplished and what I haven't. I have no complaints being a mature Single, childless woman with a great career and stress-free life (probably because I'm single). I've been in limbo waiting to move into a new house. It's been really stressful but hopefully I'll be in the house by my birthday. You know you always set goals for your life on where you want to be at a certain age. Only a few of my plans/goals panned out (career, owning a house). Now I don't know if I should set new goals for myself or just WING IT and enjoy! There are so many things I have NOT done and other things I want to do before I turn 50. Thirteen months will be gone before you know it. I guess I'd better get busy...
Anyway, I have faith you will be successful on your journey. I will support you anyway I can. I love you and God Bless You!
Txgold4X,
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for your support! I am really new to blogging & just discovered your comment today.
I find that if I don't set goals, I kind of stay in the same place. And, because I like learning and growing so much, and I've realized that goals really are essential for my happiness.
I have faith I'll get there too. Thanks again!
