My Birthday Wishes

Yikes! Another birthday is just about to come along..good gracious! I'll be 48.

I've been thinking a lot about the answer to the inevitable "So what do you want for your birthday this year?" question.

I imagine the honest-to-goodness, no-holds-barred answer would be something like "instant success" or something along those lines.

After all, is the very last post, I told you about the physical problems with the house, which is literally going to fall to the ground, I reckon, if I can't get anyone to take me seriously. But..the house has no mortgage and a clear title. How many folks have that anymore?

At this point, every basic major problem in our lives could be solved by having enough money. And, because I have not solved the financial problem factor, my self-esteem has taken a major hit and I basically feel like I am a failure.

But just having money alone isn't really the answer, either. I guess it's my work ethic of doing something to earn it. And, boy, I assure you, I'm working hard to establish myself in the writing/marketing field, in addition to continuing the two internet radio stations. It would be nice to see a little reward for all the effort that's been put in.

Success + self-respect + financial independence = 1 great birthday gift
