Butch Femme Planet - View Single Post - Self Accountability...Where will you be in 5 years?

Ummmm
I always stumbled when the teachers in High School asked this.
But at that time, I didn't see a future for myself... and never had hope of getting beyond Briery Branch or Rockingham County for that matter.

Now... things are MUCH different. I've gone places, earned my resume and done things I never dreamed of back in my bleak days at Briery Branch.

Considering what I've lived through in the last 30+ years.... the next 5 should all be down hill...

Before this summer, relocated to a WARMER place South...preferably living in the county, even if I have to commute to work.
Then...
within 5 years...
Working to make many positive life changes, AND...
settled and very comfortable in my new career (if not new, then more settled and "higher up" in my old career field, just for a different Governor!) Possibly working for the Centers for Disease Control & Prevention, FDA, or a State Department of Health actively managing a division of the Vaccines for Children Program.
Financially secure enough to take an extended vacation to Ireland.
Possibly work for or volunteer at a Job Corps facility (where I feel I can make a difference in underprivileged youths' lives and make an impact on the future of their education and career) ...
Be more active in my local Victim Witness Programs...
Become a member of the Medical Assistance Advisory Committee and their sub-chapter Consumer Subcommittee.
..... Living in a place where I can have a HUGE garden and enjoying the simple things in life.

Celibrating my mother's 6th year survival of Hodgkin's Lymphoma.
