This week, the ladies at GirlTalkThursday wanted to know what you would do if there were no consequences for your actions.
That’s a hard topic. Because it requires detaching myself so fully from reality!
A million things ran through my head, some of which I had to reject the idea of posting about. Because even admitting that I would hypothetically do something that I don’t do now, might come back to bite me in the ass. It’s *that* big of a no-no currently. (in some people’s eyes)
So if I could do something with no financial repercussions, I would quit worrying about work and bills, and scale school back to half-time. And I would focus on writing more often.
I would spend more time doing fun, not necessary things with the kids.
I would take more road trips, visit more places, and drag the kids along, too.

If I could do something with no physical repercussions, I would cook more of the food I love, and not necessarily the food that’s good for me.
I would take more risks, do more dangerous, yet fun-sounding, physical things.

If I could do something without worrying what everyone else thought,
I would do all of the above, and then some.

What about you? If you could do something with no worries about the consequences, what would it be?

There are a lot of things I'd do! Eat what I want sounds good, so does spend my $ however I want. My rent money could go a long way towards gadgets for mama! ;-)

So many things. But I think the top of the list would be traveling and then becoming a professional student. A student of everything, just because.

I'm with Kisha…what did you omit?
And if we're looking at a mild generality, mine would be similar to yours, sans kids.

Well, ahem, once upon a time, as a college student, there were certain herbal remedies I used to indulge in. But between the husband being in the Marine Corps, and then my starting nursing school, continued indulgence would have some serious consequences. So I sigh, and wait for the day that it's legalized.

I can definitely understand why some of the things that come to mind are not necessarily things that you want to post about! It's a big reason why I haven't posted on this topic yet over at my site… my mother reads my blog! Eek!

Except on the financial side, I don't think my life would change that much. Not having financial burden though would allow my family to travel and certainly take off the daily stress of being unemployed!

@Cranky Sarah, ugh, you too huh? We briefly thought that the husband would have a 2month stint this fall (In Europe!) but alas, it fell through.

@Vixen, oh I would love to stay in school forever. Not that I don't want to be an RN as well, just I love taking classes and researching and writing papers and…..on and on and on, lol

@MommyGeekology, wouldn't it though? Someday, my house will be all geeked out (and yet rural, for the husband.)

@Kisha Floren, I'm a big opponent of Prohibition-type laws, if you get my drift.
