- (Added May, 2004) To keep chooks of my own, looking after them and perhaps even breeding chicks.
- Sew a business shirt of usable quality.
- (Added February, 2005) Build my own Solar Oven, and use it to cook things on a regular basis over some period of time so that it becomes a regularly used kitchen appliance.
- (Added May, 2003) Learn to be aware in my dreams that I am dreaming, and to eventually master the art of lucid dreaming where I can also direct my dreams and decide what I will dream, how a dream will end, change the course of a dream, etc.
- Own a home of my own.
- Work a hobby-farm or other small/medium-sized properly, aiming at self-sufficiency.
- (Added December, 2004) Live in an ecologically-friendly house that I have built myself, or at least designed myself and supervised the building of.
- Give a lecture or talk to a large audience.
- Make a major contribution in some way to helping people with disabilities, be it by volunteering, inventing something, etc.
- Throw a successful dinner party.
- (Added 2003) Own a cat!
Done! I acquired a tonkinese kitten – Thomas – in June, 2003 and am living happily with him so far.
- Have a large garden which I can plant however I like.
Partly Done! With Skud I did extensive gardening/planting at our Preston house, but the gardens don’t count as “large”. I’m living in a flat now but with 31 (at last count) pot plants it almost counts as an indoor jungle.
- Have someone think of me as “Mummy”.
Note: This doesn’t have to be my biological child, one of the things I’d like to do with my life is foster a child, or children, with disabilities – that’s why I worded the dream/goal like I did.
