Quantcast

With long-term goals like this one, it is probably safe to say that we are doomed…

“Jon? Can I talk to you a minute?”

“Sure. What’s up?”

“Well, I know we went over some things already but I want to know if you and I could go over some goals together?”

“Ok, that sounds like a good plan.”

“Why don’t we go with long-term first. What’s one thing you would like to see us accomplish at the end of a year?”

“I’d really like to see us be able to get out of bed.”

[Insert Loralee Bink. Blink. Blinkity-blink-blinking, HERE]

“Uh…Ok…I was hoping for something a little more than that, but I can see how it’s hard to do a lot of time. So…Getting out of bed and what else?”

“DEBT, honey. Getting out of DEBT. NOT BED.”

“Oh..Ahha…Um…Er…Gulp.”

[Insert Jonathan guffawing loudly and mercilessly at Loralee's expense for far too long HERE]

“Honey. How on earth could you possibly think that one of my long term goals is to be able to get out of bed?”

“Well, it made sense to me. I’m super hot!”

“True.”

    Jess-LUNCH TOMORROW! YAY!

    Apples-My.bed.sucks. We have no storage space, so my hubs built our bed to have enough clearance off the floor for big storage tubs. We have no boxspring, it just is a massive platform (With a purchased headboard.)

    It works great for Jon. He loves a firm mattress…He could push down on a cement slab and say that it has too much give. :S

    Most of our family goal-setting sessions are about that productive!

    My long term goal is to get out of bed as well, but I don’t think it’s going to happen today. Maybe tomorrow?

    I’m one of those people who really don’t think about nor plan for the future. Even a week from now. Mr G. was asking if we should go to the Grand Canyon next weekend and I was all “Hmmm.. I don’t know. Let me think about it.” I need to be more decisive.

    sigh – that actually is one of my long-term goals half of the time. I wasn’t shocked a bit.
