What you're looking forward to

[Nirvanadragones]

This winter is unending and relentless. And when life seems bleak, it isn't easy to remember the good times, and that life isn't always so harsh.

Be it tonight, tomorrow, next week, next month, summer . . . years from now . . . whenever, what are you looking forward to? What are you anticipating? What keeps you going, knowing that it will to happen?

Those neked pictures that you should be sending me any day now...

 

[Nirvanadragones]

Chicago.

Oh, yes.

You don't like my feet?

They're naked.

 

[Recidiva]

Good day for this.

My birthday's tomorrow and I'll be with my family, I got to pick out the menu...

King crab legs, leg of lamb, potatoes dauphinoise, pecan pie.

Other than that, I look forward to weird things.

When things get bad...knowing that I'll die is kinda relaxing.

But I've got hugs and smiles and laughter to look forward to, good films, good food...

I'm going to Alaska this summer with my mom, dad, sister, brother and their families...all going to Denali National Park. I'm excited about that.

We're going to get a whole solar array thingy put on our home probably, and I think that's cool. Looking forward in a green way to paying for that rather than the energy bill.

Good books, finding them, rereading them, lending them...

Waiting for my tomatoes and strawberries to bear fruit.

Simple pleasures are what I appreciate, and I'm lucky to have a life rich in them.

A poker tournament on the 14th.

Shaving my head when it gets warm.

Driving with my car's T-tops off with a shaved head

My next weekend down in Atlantic City.

Driving to Atlantic City with a shaved head and the T-tops off

Hopefully returning to Vegas some day

 

[ABSTRUSE]

Tomorrow.

Because good or bad, there will still be something new. There may be something I would miss out on otherwise. Tomorrow becomes Now.

Oh.... and sending neked pictures to Safe_Bet.

Fixed your posting for ya. That's ok, you don't have to thank me...

That's nice.

I'd like a day without wondering what will go wrong next.
This morning we returned to the gym where I split my head open on Friday 13th . Ines insisted I needed to get 'back on the horse'. Sensible girl, that. Unfortunately neither of us noticed I picked up a shopping bag and put in the back of the car, instead of my holdall with my gym gear

She swam, I watched glowing young ladies emerging from the changing rooms.

 

[Selena_Kitt]

The birth of this baby.

The memory of labor is nothing compared to the discomforts of this last month. Bring it on!

 

[DesertPirate]

Planting a veggie and flower garden with the wife.
Harvest and consumption to follow

YUM!

I miss my garden. We moved last August, and I left mine. Wanted to do one this year, but baby and gardening AND running a publishing company? *sigh* I had to draw the line somewhere...

enjoy the fruits of your labor!

 

[Liar]

Pretty much whatever happens.


I once was miserable.
Then I took a step back and asked myself, would I rather be dead? The answer was a clear "oh hell naw".
Since then I haven't been able to be miserable. Everytime a part of me slides that way, another part steps in and tells that part to not be such a dick. I have a pulse. I don't have ass cancer. I have the freedom and the ability to take a stroll and look at trees. I have a cool hat. Things could be much, much worse.

 

[JAMESBJOHNSON]

When I was 17 I made a list of things I wanted to do. I've done them all, except be a teacher.

But my immediate goal is to kick Stevie King's ass as a horror writer. I believe its doable.

 

[impressive]

Making a difference.

 

[lesbiaphrodite]

I look forward to:

1. taking an anthropology class next semester

2. finishing the short story I've been working on

3. walking barefoot on the tall grass when the sun is high in May

4. eating corn fresh from the garden at the end of summer

Hear, hear, Liar. I've got a great job and a fair amount of work on the side, I've got money coming in, my diabetes is under decent control, my wife loves me, the cars are in good shape, and the cable works. The Wonderchild (my youngest stepdaughter) is moving back in with us in a few months and I think that'll be an okay thing, too. I miss my kitten, but I shall recover, and the Wonderchild is bringing her two cats with her, so there will be plenty of cats in the house for all of us.

..proving to Imp that she makes a difference everyday...


I look forward to seeing my children in April. When I am with them, I will look forward to returning to my love. And then I will look forward to the all too brief summer weeks when I can have them all together in one home...

 

[voluptuary_manque]

PM's from friends, HM's days off, maybe a new car . . . diving this summer and learning to flyfish the surf. Hell, I might even get a kayak!

We will
Decided to dig up most of the back yard this time

 

[glynndah]

Most days 3:20 and that last bell; PMs; productive visits from a wandering muse or two; opening a brand new book by a favorite author; the lilacs blooming outside my bedroom window.

That might be the best naked pic Safe Bet answer ever. You win something. Let me know what you win and I'll send it to you.


A lot of what I've wanted to do happened. A lot of what I didn't want to do, I got out of. So I have it pretty good. Of course there's more I want. Do I look forward to it? Not right now. I like my now.

 

[OhMissScarlett]

-painting my living room and hallway.
-planting heirloom tomatoes.
-good weather for my compulsive need to walk.
-losing the rest of the weight I need to lose. I'm halfway there and it's taken forever!
-working on getting back the focus I need to write again.
-kicking memory loss's ass and raging war against chronic pain...every day I get out of bed is a victory.

 

[matriarch]

Coming home to my wonderful wife every day. I can't imagine my life without her, and don't even want to.

The first day it's warm enough to leave off socks, and put on sandals

The first primroses and bluebells

My first walk of the year on the beach

Visits this year from much-missed friends

The time I spend with my beloved sons, no matter how few those moments are

The continued health of my parents who are now 88 and 89 years old.

Hopefully being able to lose some of this continually encroaching weight increase, and improve my general health as a result.
