As Queen of Earth, Sky, and all the Other Realms!

Haha, just kidding…maybe. 😉

Not working is something I truly love to contemplate, as I’m sure many do.

With a walk like this everyday – Ashford, WA

The absolute ideal for me would be living in the mountains, writing books, debt-free, with the ability to travel if I so desire.

Something I write about all the time.

Peaceful.

Simplicity.

Blissful.

Gotta have the coffee while writing along with the beautiful mountain view!

With a healthy mind and body.

And my spirit and soul fulfilled.

The truth is – I probably will always be doing something to remain active mentally and physically, as that’s just the type of person I am…

Lots of stargazing, wandering, and musing would certainly be nice, too 🔭

So whether that’s writing books or working on a different type of side project that speaks to me and I am passionate about, as long as it comes from the heart – that will always fill me with a sense of purpose.

Early retirement is definitely on the agenda, however! 😆

    • Haha, yes! Oh, I am too jealous of you now, with your fresh air and stunning mountain views! Bahhh! Hopefully sooner than later for me! 😆 and in an interesting twist, I am also drinking coffee in this late hour (at work, lol) ☕️

      • The views are wonderful, but the drives can be scary! But overall, it’s really nice – especially since I added some patio furniture outside on our deck.

        Music camp starts this afternoon so I will fuel myself with all sorts of coffee to try to match their energy lol

  9. That sounds wonderful! Early retirement in the mountains, writing books, and staying active sounds like an ideal and fulfilling plan.

    To be home, writing with a view of the mountains, sounds amazing. I’d also love to live in a cabin or a charming little farmhouse.

    We need to start writing and selling books so we can retire and make these dream a reality. 👍🏻😁
