Take myself off to a cottage in the country for a couple of months and finally write that novel that’s rumbling around in my head.

Go to North Korea, Somalia, Iran, India, Afghanistan and Algeria. Alone and travel around.

Yours is less killy so you should do it!

Legally go back to my maiden name.

Iateallthechips · 18/01/2023 15:32

Walk out of the door and keep on walking.

Bit like Forest Gump but with far less running and more holiday inns.

What’s stopping you.
I never took my husbands name
It’s not against the law

KangarooKenny · 18/01/2023 15:56

I wish I’d not let DH talk me out of another baby. So I’d say go for it, dont regret it.

You should read ‘Jack Reacher’

Ask DH if I can buy him out of the house, and live in separate houses.

JeanMarie · 18/01/2023 15:58

Right now I'm all people'd out so I'd take myself off to a little coach house on the coast (been there before but not in my own) . I'd take the pile of unread books currently residing in my bedside cabinet. I'd also take some wool, a crochet hook and a decent playlist or I could sit in blissful silence. I would eat what I want, when I want. Loved ones would be under strict orders not to contact me unless it's an emergency . My first grandchild is due in May so I'll come back then.

Have a couple of pet wolves.

Artic, Gray or Timber, I don’t mind.

Have therapy for issues relating to my childhood and family.

YorkieTheRabbit · 18/01/2023 16:02

@Tamarindtree Ooh I love wolves, DP thinks I’m deranged at loving something likely to rip your throat out 😂

Crumpleton · 18/01/2023 16:03

Own and run a little B&B/Tea shop down by the coast.

Where do you live that you have legally changed it? The US?

HerRoyalNotness · 18/01/2023 16:08

Pack up the kids and move . Difficulty being I don’t know where to move to, and H most likely wouldn’t let me remove them from the country. Grrrr

England.
I never changed my name when I got married
Hasn't been the law since the 1700s
