The next decade....what's in store?

Trying desperately to get pregnant

Not me, but actually, after rummaging through some papers from when I was living in Grenada, it could very well have....

At a training session with my team one day in October 2000, each person had to fill out a 'Getting to Know You' form. I kept the one I filled out for myself. I'll share some of the questions and my responses.

Q. If you had your life to live over, and knew then what you know now, what is one thing you would do differently?
A. Done different subjects in 'O' Levels eg Food & Nutrition and Accounts.

Q. Finish the sentences:
The things/ situations I wish did not exist in the world are.....
A. Famine, abuse, hatred, war and quarelling

One surprising/interesting thingk you may not ever have known about me is.
A. I played a mad out-patient in a musical at age 19. Costume was a
cardboard box, neon orange plastic top and neon green plastic pants!

I would love to meet.....
A. Oprah and Tiger Woods because they are so good at what they do.

I spend my spare time....
A. Exercising, eating, reading, watching sports, listening to music

Q. Goals in life and time frame to achieve them

A. 1. To be well respected/known in the hospitality industry in the region
2. To gain a Masters degree in Hospitality Education or Organizational
Behaviour by 2003
3. To have a child (adoption not ruled out) by 2004.

???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

WHAT WAS I THINKING????? I didn't even have any sperm prospects in mind then!

So, since I haven't achieved that goal, at age 44 (that will be in 2010), I might just decide I want a child, and end up writing to a doc like this lady to say 'HELP'.

By the way, trying for 14 years, and trying often I would imagine, must be fun.
