SOMEDAY I WILL...


Well, Tuesday has come and gone; Wednesday is quickly fading into the night as well!!  So glad we have six days to link up with Karen for Tuesday @ Ten!  

This week's prompt phrase is:



SOMEDAY I WILL...

Yes!

Someday I will have the life I have wanted for so long!

Someday I will not be sick all the time.

Someday I will have the energy to keep this apartment clean; including my craft room!

Someday I will have enough money to do the things that I want to do - with family and friends - without having to worry about it!

Someday I will live in a really nice apartment, with plenty of room for us to "entertain"; have family and friends over.

Someday I will have enough clothes to wear without wearing the same things over and over.

Someday I will eat whatever I want without gaining weight.

Someday...

SOMEDAY...

But, when will someday be?

Actually...

I am living the life I have always wanted:  I am retired; my time is flexible - and almost always filled with things to do!  I can spend time with my family and my friends!  I can go on vacations as often as time - ha! or money - allow!

The sickness and the energy?  The weight?  The finances?  The clothes?

All of these are really minor things...

I have enough:  money, clothes, time!

I am who I am...weight and all!

Sick?  Yes!  Chronic bronchitas is not FUN to live with...in fact, chronic anything is not FUN to live with.  We are ALL battling something; and most are not apparent to others.



Lack of energy?  Yes!  Comes with the chronic condition...

But, neither keep me from doing what I want to do in this life of retirement.

I can always rest at the end of a great outing; spend a day at home doing little - or a lot! - depending on how I feel.

Yes, someday I will...

I think my "someday" is here and now!!

    1. Yes, Tessa! I learned a long time ago to be happy where I am and not (TRY NOT) to wish I were someone or somewhere else!
