In Keeping with Julie Marie's post of What Were You Doing 20 Years Ago? (https://www.susans.org/forums/index.php/topic,92212.0.html), where do you see yourself in 20 years?
(https://www.susans.org/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.retroclobber.co.uk%2Fmovie-t-shirts%2Fimages%2Ftshirts%2Fladies-back-to-the-future-delorean-flames-t-shirt-logo.jpg&hash=cf288f15425ff719683ded28d290870d99ea99b1)

I'll be 41, hopefully own my own island and be retired...
IRL I will hopefully have a job that I love, some kids, and a house. That would be pretty awesome.

Ack! Cait is planning on being a Cylon. Or maybe starting Skynet and/or The Matrix.
I was going to say that in 20 years, I'd like to be approaching a young/early retirement.
Now, I'm thinking that in 20 years, I may be fighting in the first Cylon war or the battle to save humanity from the machines.

Where would I like to be in 20 years?
Well at my age simply still being alive and in good health would be good for a start.
Actually of course I'd like to do rather more than that. I'd like to be a successful author, have widespread notoriety, and still be active in some professional capacity.

Ooooohhhh another aussie lover! I'd love to visit, perhaps even live in the land "down under".
I have taught myself how to play the didgeridoo, and have quite a collection of "tubes".
I know we have a fair number of people from OZ here, and as I look out my window at the blizzard that is pelting Chicago right now, I yearn for some Australian summer.
In twenty years, I will have surpassed being older than dirt, and by then I might even BE dirt.

At the moment we are baking in southern areas of Aus. A massive cyclone is about to hit the Far North and there are floods in between. You might want the blizzard, but don't send it too me :laugh:
Yes there are quite a few Aussies on the site, I've talked to many and met a few and every single one has been totally fantastic. Mmm we might have to start "Sheila's". Sorry Aussie joke.

Yeah, I've been watching the weather stories coming out from there. It looks like Yasi took dead aim on the coast.
I offered a couple of my aussie FB friends 5 boxes of snow for 2 boxes of warm. My offer still stands.

Age 75, still alive, healthy, happy.
By then, will have sold the private equity firm I'm now planning, have funded Transition House (Created and run by two AWESOME T-girls right here on this site), and have helped describe people like us to the general public in order to educate them about us and to foster acceptance of us.
Finally, I'd like to be whiling away my time living the ascetic philosopher's life and living in the C.O. resort which I hope to develop. Spending time occasionally with a small cadre of sincere friends would be a bonus which I'd greatly appreciate.
Peace
;) Lacey

I would be 39.
Now for the 'hoping':
1- Still being alive (Assuming the other points come true. Otherwise I'd rather just be dead to be honest)
2- Living an atleast half competent life unlike now : - Have a decent job - Have actual friends in 'real life' -Being healthy - Essentially be more than a shadow on a wall
3- Being comfortable being myself : -Successfully having transitioned -No longer having intense anxiety everywhere -Be post-op if transitioning was indeed for me
4- Being less irritable and snappy than I am now
5- In general, just being better off than I am right now.
Small list and not much too them, but they're quite large dreams. Will they turn out? Who knows.

20 years.. damn. I will be 40.
I would be completely done with transition, been on T for 20 years! Will have had my top surgery for at least 15 years by then, and will have had my hysto as well.
I would hope to be living in Seattle or new york, living in a nice studio apartment or loft, something nicely decorated, but also simple and masculine, I want to live high up in a tall building with a nice view. I want to have a steady job, doing something that I take joy in, something that I don't dread, maybe writing, or something related to psychology. I currently have a boyfriend, and I know its a long way away, I can see myself still being with him, maybe living together, maybe married who knows.
No kids, they arent for me, a cat of course, Im sure my cat Edwin will be gone in 20 years. (he is 1 now)
Maybe I will be an uncle though haha, I can see that.
I would really hope that in 20 years, I can find that I have confidence in myself as a man, and no longer worry about my gender. No longer think about it all the time, and just move on and not even feel transgender anymore, just male. I would also hope that my whole family would be completely used to me being male, and maybe come to accept me as their son/brother. Maybe even forget who I used to 'be' thats what i really want, wish I could erase all of those years, they are just embarrassing to look back at.

I want to have a steady job, doing something that I take joy in, something that I don't dread, maybe writing, or something related to psychology. I currently have a boyfriend, and I know its a long way away, I can see myself still being with him, maybe living together, maybe married who knows.
No kids, they arent for me, a cat of course, Im sure my cat Edwin will be gone in 20 years. (he is 1 now)
Maybe I will be an uncle though haha, I can see that.
I would really hope that in 20 years, I can find that I have confidence in myself as a man, and no longer worry about my gender. No longer think about it all the time, and just move on and not even feel transgender anymore, just male. I would also hope that my whole family would be completely used to me being male, and maybe come to accept me as their son/brother. Maybe even forget who I used to 'be' thats what i really want, wish I could erase all of those years, they are just embarrassing to look back at.

I'll be 42, my little girl will be all grown up at 20. I'll be planning something awesome for her 21st
My transition will be a distant memory
I can see myself still being with my current boyfriend, should have been husband for a good while by then. In a nice house by the coast, with an amazing kitchen I can make all sorts of delicious food in. Maybe running my own business either in fashion or having a coffee shop/bakery.
My cats will more than likely be long dead, there's a sad thought :( I'll have new kitties
I hope to have seen most of the world by then. I plan to take my daughter to see lots of different places and cultures when she's old enough to appreciate it.
