Very Interesting thread, Lilith! I don't know if I can come up with all 10, but I'll give it a shot....

Here is my Top 10 List of Lifetime Achievement Goals (in no particular order)

1. To move away from the Detroit area, possibly to the Branson/Springfield MO area.

2. To actually complete a quilt.

3. To get out of debt

4. To see the Pyramids and Sphinx in person.

5. To loose about 100 lbs., for health reasons as well as wanting to feel better about myself.

6. To complete, as much as possible, all the family history I've been researching since 1983

7. To try all those recipes I've saved from magazines for years.

8. To see all my sons established in stable jobs, and stable relationships, and happy.

9. To see an end to my husband's sexual difficulties and a reestablishment of our sex life.

10. To see the Lions win the Superbowl!!! (and I believe this goal is the LEAST likely to be achieved!!:D:D:D

Clint,

Don't be concerned whether your list is boring or not. Our goals don't have to be exciting. The main thing is that they are important to us! My list is far from exciting.......but it's what I want for myself. Now we all just have to figure out how to achieve as many of our goals as possible and work as hard as we can to achieve them.
You're lucky, Clint, you have many more years to work toward your goals than some of us. :D:D:D
