Today is all about wishful thinking.

This is a short meme, but it’s fun. Come and dream for a while and escape what’s around you right now and forget your problems, even if only momentarily….let’s dream together today about things that we may never get to do, have or be….

What would you do with your time if you never had to work another day and your expenses all were covered?
I would blog still of course, and I’d start writing on SabrinasMoneyMatters.com again as well, since I’d have more time to research all my ideas. I’d travel in the summers and while away my days as a writer should…writing.

What would you study if you could go to college for free?
I have already investigated this since I’m looking to go back to school full time, I’ll be majoring in Communication Technology with a minor in Journalism. Got to hone these skills.

Where is the one place you have always wanted to go, but haven’t gotten to go yet?
I would like to go to Ireland most of all, in the 90′s Garth Brooks did a live concert there and I remember thinking the landscape was beautiful.

What is the one thing you’d like to accomplish more than anything in the world?
I’d like to know that I’m a good mom. Which I hope to know once my son is older by his relationship with me. But that is the one job I feel that is the most important for me to do right.

When I was younger I dreamed a lot of dreams, as I’ve gotten older I’ve seen the flaws in some of those dreams, but reminisced at my innocence in having them. I believe that dreaming is a large part of life, it helps with that little push everyday to get out of bed and try another day to get closer to one of them, even if not all of them.

The rules of this meme are to answer the questions and tag three other people to pass this meme on to. I am taging Rachel, Debo and DCR! Of course everyone knows when you tag DCR, be prepared for an onslaught.

Bring it on!

Today, this afternoon rather, we’ll celebrate my mother’s 50th birthday. Her actual birthday was on Thursday but this was the best time to celebrate for her.

So today we’ll celebrate her 50th at the church she attends, among her friends and family. I hope I remember to bring my camera .

My nieces and nephews will be there, cousin, sisters and brothers in law, and of course, my Grandmother. I treasure family gatherings more and more lately, even though my relationships with some of my family has been rocky, it’s still important to appreciate them, and be glad that we’re still here to do so.

Today is a day to be thankful, appreciative of life. Knowing that no matter how low our economy sinks, we still have each other.

I think it’ll be fun.

Yesterday we spent a few hours at my sister in law’s for our nephew’s birthday. The kids all had a lot of fun, and J held the pinata, being sure to keep our 11 year old from beating it to smitherines on the first try. He was one of the biggest kids there. This weekend has been full of family, yesterday J’s side of the family and today, my side of the family.

Great way to close out February and start March.

Hope you’ve all had an equally wonderful weekends. Tell me about it!
