eat lobster anytime I want to, rather than when I can afford it
That doesn't sound right - 4 years ago

After re-reading this goal, it doesn’t read right. I guess I meant to say I want to eat lobster anytime I feel like it, rather than thinking it’s too expensive, and that I should just order something else.

Get fit and stay fit
Any exercise you love will help 4 years ago

I was the most non-athletic person, all the way through high school and into my mid 20s.
Oddly enough, I’m pretty overweight presently, but I’ve been a runner since I was about 28 – my then-boyfriend/now-husband got me into it, and I thought it would be good to be fit by my 30th birthday.
Now it’s almost 15 years later, and I still run six days a week, even with my added pounds. My blood pressure is fine, and I have endurance as well. My father died at 54 after his second heart attack, and I’m doing my best to fight heredity.

If you don’t like to run (I do it because it’s easy, cheap, and I can do it anywhere), join a gym or find some like-minded individuals to walk/run/play ball, whatever.

You’ll find when you’re more physically fit, you get more emotionally fit as well. Definitely worth doing.

go to museums in Chicago
Fabulous Chicago museums 4 years ago

I’m a Chicago-born Florida transplant. There isn’t anything down here that compares to the museums in Chicago. My favorites are the Museum of Science & Industry and the Field Museum. Went there plenty of times with my family, and always on school field trips.
Every time I make it back to Illinois, I want to go downtown and see everything again, especially since I have two boys 11 and 13 who’ve never been there – we stay out in Rockford with my Mom.
I’ve also enjoyed the planetarium and the Shedd Aquarium. The only place I’ve never been (gasp) is the Art Institute.

All the Chicago museums are totally worth the trip. Spend an entire day at each one, and you still won’t be able to take it all in.
