Smile 2 wishes what would they be?

If you had two wishes for yourself and only yourself what would they be? We all know that we have wishes for our family and friends to be happy & healthy but what are the 2 wishes you have just for yourself?

My first wish for myself is that I get to my goal weight,
maintain it and be healthy.

My second wish is to get through these years of jaw treatment
& surgery and hope that the six years of treatment is a success after. Surgeons & Specialists can't guarantee that it will work after all the work that has been done. No more being sick is my goal after this is all over.

I only have one real wish for myself....

I wish my husband was pain-free and able to lead a normal life... yes, this is a wish "just for me!" I miss the simple things like taking a walk with him, rides in the car, visiting friends... shopping... snuggling and giggling... Our life is centered on HIS pain --- the past 5 years have become progressively worse... : (

Default My wish

1) that we get full custody of my finaces kids. Yep that's really for me. I LOVE those kids to death, and don't like it when they are out of my life. They are like my own kids
2) I can't really put my true 2nd wish, because it's a mean thing to say about a certain ex, SO with that I will say I wish that my realtionship stays healthy, strong and loving. I know YUCK!

Wow this is easy for me...the first one is my daily struggle. The second something I have missed out on in my life up to now.

1) Make more money so that I actually have extra. I make a good living. I own my own house, car, etc... but I don't have much extra. I would love to make over my house & pay off my credit cards. I don't have a lot of debt but hate the little I do have.

2) A guy to share my life with. I've been blessed with a wonderful life...except in this area. I can't even tell you how long it's been since I've had a date. I'm not even looking to get married anymore just having someone around would be great.

My first wish is that my daughter, Helene, be cancer free - her biopsy (right breast) is on Tuesday).

My second wish is that Glen and I have many more years together, healthy ones, and that, in the end, that I die first, since I don't want to live without him......

Two wishes for me....


1. To be hear normally again. Being hearing-impaired (almost deaf, but not quite there) is one of my most frustrating stresses in my life. Especially when hearing aids and seeing top specialists can't help. No sign language either with arthritic hands.

2. To reach my goal of being debt free by the time I retire at age 62. By that time I will have worked 28 years at my job.
