I wish I had time to take up yoga. I would love to hear your thoughts on the master plan. <br /><br />@ move to portugal: Thank you. I love my job, but the commute is a pain. I can't wait for the day, too! Time to put the plan into action!<br /><br />exercise, hard to accomplish. I literally have to drag myself outside. but its not so bad once i make it out there. <br /><br />And a Farmer's market... totally nice way to wake up. :)<br /><br />@ adrian J: thanks for stopping by! I think owning my own business is definitely part of my Life's Purpose. And will it help me acheive my number? Actually, I do as long as I reinvest the money into stocks, realty, and back into the business. :)<br /><br />@ Ms. Money Chat: I think for me, it is time to take that risk to jumping the corporate ship and pursing what I was meant to do. I would love to hear about your path, should you pursue it. I think I would rather take the gander than to regret not doing so. :)<br /><br />And the purging, my hubby totally agrees on the downsizing. Especially if it will help knock the debt! <br /><br />@ Ostrich: A store for sale, huh? Hmmm... i think it would be really nice. I know it will be a lot of work, but well worth it. And in order to bring in more revenue, I plan on holding local craft fairs, maybe garden shows, cooking classes... all extra ideas. :)<br /><br />@ shtinkykat: Thanks for the idea. There are so many directions I could go, but which way?? lol! Hmmm... a healthy "fast food" place? ;)<br /><br />@ sharon rose: so good to see you around! thank you for such wonderful comments. Now, if I can just <i>stick</i> to those goals. I am sure my DH will see to it cuz he is so ready for the simple life, too! <br /><br />Thank you, all! @444 Dad: was your cake tasty?

I'd love to open a small market stocked with local veggies, meats and cheeses, plus baked goods. There is even a store for sale in my area that it would be perfect for it. <br /><br />Someday... <br /><br />Kudos for doing a great job tracking your food and exercise! Great minds think a like.

Or, is running such a business part of your Life's Purpose, anyway?
