Anyone else wishing this rain would go away and let the sun come out to play? I am so bored at work and the rain is making me feel even more down.

So, a mini poll?

2. What age would you like to retire?

3. What did you want to be when you were a kid?

4. Do you have a hobby? What is it?

  • 1. Where is your next vacation destination? We are going to Kiawah Island (right off the coast of SC) with my whole family at the end of July.  DH is not excited, but I can?t wait to spend 7 whole days with my little niece! 

    2. What age would you like to retire? Depends on what I am doing? right now, probably when I am 55- I don?t think I?ll last much longer then that.  If I am doing something other then what I do now, who knows!

    3. What did you want to be when you were a kid? An astronaut, a lawyer, a singer/actress.

    4. Do you have a hobby? What is it? I love to travel and read.  I used to be a competitive swimmer, so I would really like to start swimming again
  • 1. Where is your next vacation destination? It was gonna be SoCal in August but my job status was up in the air for a few months (just found out my job is safe a couple of days ago, woohoo!). While we could now afford to go, we've decided to go ahead and put our apartment back on the market and try and buy a house, so we probably will still end up staying home in August. So I guess our next trip will be New Orleans in October. 

    2. What age would you like to retire? If not now (27), then somewhere between 55-60.

    3. What did you want to be when you were a kid? A marine biologist, an archaeologist, and a sportscaster. Now, I am none of those things. I did not aspire to be what I am now (a librarian) until my senior year of college when I had to figure out what the hell I was gonna do with my linguistics degree.

    4. Do you have a hobby? What is it? Running, reading, traveling when I can.

    I'm a total control freak, too! ?BAD!! ?My dad and friends convinced me to let go, and that it's a really romantic idea. ?We set down ground rules, and he promised that I would get to do all the planning next year. But I'm still curious/nervous! ?I am dying for October to get here already...lol?
