I’m finding it hard to do much dreaming these days, “hoping’ is more like it.  Hoping I can hang on to my home through the tough times, hoping I won’t have to keep working a job that demands hard physical labor much longer than the age of 60….gee while I’m hoping, I hope I won’t have to work past 60 unless it’s a personal choice to do so!  My biggest hope is for good health when I can finally retire and enjoy life.  But enough about hope, let’s talk dreams.

1. I would like to go to New Zealand and Australia for a month or two.
2. My other choice for travel is a tour of Ireland and Scotland
3. Perhaps buy a newer motorcycle and ride the AlCan highway to Alaska.
4. Always feel secure, and not worry about bills and unexpected expenses like brain surgery for my son, or car breakdowns that leave me stranded. 
5.  And speaking of my son, I dream of  feeling secure that he will be taken care of if I outlive him.  Will he be able to stay in a safe group home like he is in now?  Or will he have  to be shipped to a less safe, lower quality care facility because I can’t afford to keep him there anymore?

Well, that’s enough for now, this is all I dare to dream for.
