It’s been almost a year since I answered this prompt the first time and I wanted to do a small check-in at this point.
Last time, I mentioned that I suck at planning for my own future, and this still holds true, but let’s see where I’ve made progress.
- Do I own a home yet? Nope, but I still have a couple years to go.
- Same goes for publishing a novel. I have a couple projects I’m working on simultaneously (which is kind of bad because then I’m not being consistent enough to knock one out yet) but I have a plan for distributing one of them at least!
- The student loans thing? Well, as it turned out there was a major class-action lawsuit taking place over the last several years that finally came to a close which led to the federal government forgiving my student loans (and, to be clear, this is NOT in any way associated to whatever the president had been trying to accomplish).
- Romantic relationship news: still nothing, but again, as far as the “three years” thing goes, I still have time.
- Visiting friends in other States and countries? Very soon I’m going to a wedding in a different State and meeting some of those very same friends I had planned to meet! Which includes the ones in another country!!
- The motorcycle is a low priority, especially if I’m hoping to buy a house, so I honestly forgot I had that listed. At this point, if I can get the house thing sorted out, I’d probably settle on renovations for the home so that I could have a proper hobby space.
- A second novel is definitely not happening, at least not in the same vain as the first.
I mentioned in the end of that first post that I didn’t have plans and I still really don’t. I’m just kind of winging it. Again.
