What's your dream?

I'm 38 and I feel so old and tired. I've got two sons, one is 6 and the other just about to turn 2. Becoming a mum has aged me, physically and mentally, and I also feel tired of the world and everything in it. I want to retreat, away from everyone and everything. Ideally I'd like to buy a narrowboat and spend a lot of time on it, reading, walking, looking at the water, listening to the sounds of nature - and of course, sleeping. I think this may be achievable, if I save like crazy for the next 10 years. (I'd buy second-hand!)

What's your dream? Do you think you can achieve it?

My dream is to have children, I have a rare genetic condition and it is not going to be easy. Alternatively my dream is to adopt! I really really hope I can achieve it!

It may sound sad but just paying off the mortgage would be my dream. Knowing that if anything happened we would have the house paid and DS would always have somewhere to live. Got 28 years left on it (was 33 years two years ago but managed to drop some years when remortgaged) but should have it paid off in 15-20 ideally. Unrealistic dream would be to pack up and move to a quiet little Italian town Grin. Praying for the lotto numbers to come in!! X

My dream is to be married and not be a single parent anymore and have a successful career life

To write a young adult novel.

I love the narrow boat plan and have seriously considered this myself. The only spanner in the works for me is that I would not be prepared to give up my piano and I don’t think I could fit in on the boat!

I want to own a soft play!
