"Everybody's looking for something" ... Eurythmics ... 'Sweet Dreams (Are Made Of This)'
Though I've always "strongly disliked" that "how do you see yourself in...." question because it can remind you of what you have not accomplished, dreams ARE how you see yourself in 5, 10, 15, 20 years....
Thus, some of my dreams:
...get married and have kids (not a chance of either thus far).
...purchase my own home in the outskirts of town (or country ... or small town) with a huge garage.
...add a 1975 Caprice Classic convertible and a 1987 Monte Carlo SS Aerocoupe to my auto collection.
...host a "permanent" radio show.
..."retire" ... so I can have time to more-fully enjoy things, such as the nice weather we've had in Chicagoland the last 2 weekends.
...travel and meet people, even more so than I do now....
...among others....
Even with all of those unrealized dreams to date, I _am_ happy. Thus, the "yes" answer to if I am where I thought I'd be at this point in life...
...have relatively-good health (more or less).
...have 5 Monte Carlos.
...have a job I like (even though it is not completely in my field of interest/expertise).
...have time and money to travel ... if only a fraction of what I'd like.
...have family/friends all over the US, who I see when I travel.
...have done a radio show each of the last 2 Aprils ... hoping to make it a more permanent thing, if I can get sponsors.
...among others....
So ... how about you? How'd you answer the "are you where you'd thought you'd be at this age?" / "what are your dreams?" question tandem?

I would say I am exactly where I want to be and where I always dreamed I would be. I have a wonderful husband and two great kids ages 9 and 5. I really enjoy my preschool teaching job and I have a lot of good friends. I feel very blessed and grateful to God! Not to say it is been total smooth sailing...my stepdad passed away from leukemia this year-we miss him terribly. My dad died from heart disease at age 50. My mom is doing okay but is lonely. Health wise she is doing okay, and I am thankful for that, but she has been sick for many years.
