Mmmmrmph! I figured out a goal! I'm going to conquer my phobia of horses this year.
I did not conquer my phobia of horses that year.

I still believe there is a historical reason for your fear of horses and you just need to get to the root of it.
Hail to thyself
For I am my own master
I am my own god
I require no shepherd
For I am no sheep.

Trevor

To finally finish my script and book.
We shall meet in the place where there is no darkness.

Alex

To stick to my course and formally submit my PVR in just over a month.
Hail to thyself
For I am my own master
I am my own god
I require no shepherd
For I am no sheep.

Horses have been importantly and intimately involved in human society for as long as culture.  They are mythic and symbolic in many cultures.  Ever listen to THE DOORS "Horse Latitudes" off the 2nd album?

How about Patti Smith's "Horses?"

https://youtu.be/cSk6jfln84A

Suddenly... Johnny... gets the feeling... he's being surrounded by... horses... horses... horses... horses... coming in in all directions white... shining... silver... studs with their noses... in... flames... he saw horses... horses... horses... horses...

Nothing scary about that.
I'll take you places the hand of man has not yet set foot...

I basically just want to pay off my house, work another 5 or so years after and retire.  Got a renter currently so I'm able to take nice chunks out of it with principal payments (and tax returns go towards it too).  Getting fairly close to halfway paid off.

As soon as you've paid it off, I'll come visit and you can take me to that place which is close to you and makes the best burgers  :wink:

Find my husband a new freaking career.  Three years ago he owned a business that made fairly good money, employed a sizable crew, and he was happy doing it; a year ago he went off into another venture which he recently sold to his partner (I think one was going to kill the other) and now he is drifting and figuring everything out, constantly around, bored, no clue that to do next, classic mid-life crisis. He's not broke, the sale was for a decent return, but he's mystified about what comes next. It's gotten so old I'm ready to tell him to go have an affair, just to have somewhere else to be.

Finish the remodeling projects on our "new" house that have taken me WAY longer than they should have, and try to be moved in by the time winter hits. 

Get my teeth fixed.

Try to find a low stress job that I can hold down.
