Go to Berlin.
Go to London.
Fly a kite over the Pacific Ocean.
Learn a foreign language.
Write a screenplay.
Live abroad, even if just for a year or two.

I want to do it all.
But if I die tomorrow, I'm cool with it so far.

How come nobody's list includes acquiring as many
screen names as possible?

doing one of mine this week. going to the Olympics, attending the short track speed skating finals Friday, and just wandering about soaking it all in. never thought it would be in my own backyard like this!

OMG when I become a grandmother I will shutter at any granny nickname. lol you just gave me nightmares!

I'm with you on the money. wouldn't that be a cool job?

Just found this thread!
 

Its a long list... so maybe I will give it to you in pieces....

... Sing solo in front of an audience of no less then 5,000
... Never stop learning
... Learn to play at least one new instrument ever 5 years
... Record my own music.

Ok, there's a few for now.

adding something...

I want to camp in the woods for a month and practice my survival skills. Then I want to go live in the forest until I die.

A few more for today (please note I actually have a writen out list of these that numbers more then 100)

.... continue my education all of my life, taking at least one course each year
.... own my own home
.... threaten my daughters first date
.... go to a Broadway show
.... watch my children BOTH graduate college

top somebody for a night.

find really great reasonably priced hats in 6 5/8 and wear them all...

i have no idea why this gave me the giggles. :harp:

I remember a story read on Capt Kangaroo when I was a kid. Caps for Sale! The illustrations showed the peddler wearing all of his caps. Stacked up according to colors... I realized after I wrote "and wear them all" it might end up looking something like that. Hey! I could be tall then! ;)

I have done alot in my life I sought to do. But...

create and market my line of lotions & potions

learn to glass blow

help teach people to heal themselves

be totally 'green' (except for travel)

travel, travel, travel

Addendum, if my 'bucket list' wish comes true...this is how I want it...

continuation.....
 

build our log chalet in the mountains
publish my erotica
open my Bed an Breakfast on Lake Lure, NC
travel to Ireland and explore every magnificent inch of it

and I will open every door, and go to every edge I've ever fantasized about........

It was already dead, silly...

even tho I dont drink alcohol at all, the house I am buying has a HUGE pergola filled with ancient grape vines that were used for decades to make wine...I think I need to make some wine! LOL

I too want to have an enormous garden...and am already designing the area I am inheriting with this new house. They had a huge garden, fenced in, and I will put my hands within it soon...

I want to see my daughter happy, and not so stressed with graduation, not so nervous about not being married yet, not so needy to have children yet...I want her to be in a job she loves, with a man she loves, with babies all around her that she will share with me...

I want someone to love the color of my hair, the softness of my body, the badness of my mischief, the warmth of my heart...and if not, then I wish to be on my own as I will not sacrifice the joy I feel about myself for the burden of someone else's misery they could transplant onto me...

I want to travel some...and even tho I have this spinal thing, it comes and goes and if I take care of myself, Iwill have the energy and ability to travel.

and take care of myself is #1....I want to die sober. I want to live happy joyous and free. I want to keep a healthy lifestyle and I want to glory in my ability to take care of myself...

AMEN, sister!!!

..... write a book
..... build a gypsy vardo
..... own my own business
..... design and sew much of my own clothing from used items
..... attend a Native American powwow

.... visit the place where I was born
.... spoil grandchildren
.... take a cruise

I love indian food. I actually was growing my own curry leaf plant but it got zapped this last winter in the greenhouse. I really need to turn you onto this. I love combining things such as indian and asian, using a good seasoned wok. I love my flavors to be exotic and when I have time, which isnt much, I could live in the garden and kitchen.

Italy- wow, that would be so wonderful. I always wanted to visit the country side. Tuscany

I love wine. I understand how some people can't drink. Wine is magical. There's just something about it. I rarely drink anything else.

I have a few grape vines that just started producing. I think about putting in a lot more but then I battle with time and the truth is everything I do is just too much. I'm feeling a little tired and burnt out. Part of me wants to downsize into a tiny cottage, little garden and a few fruit trees. lol- but hell, I bought the 30 acres thinking, "I'll keep part, sell part and keep it simple." Next thing you know I was putting up buildings, greenhouse, chicken coops, small orchards and the like. I'm typical Taurus.

But the key Softness is finding the right partner who shares your dreams. I always said that I would marry the person I garden with.

exactly. don't settle. Someone has to really step up to the plate to impress me. I'm a strong and capable woman. I can run circles around most. I'm tired really and agree that its time for someone to lead... if only they can. I will not turn the reins over to just anyone. The truth is I just might end up alone. My expectations are pretty high.

But how about we make a silver haired femme pack/group... if we're alone we'll get together and garden with each other.

Sachita..I think we should do that anyway. We dont have to be each other's last plan. Let us become friends and garden together and share our lives along the way...I am no longer looking for a punctuation mark that says "aha! There is the end of what I was looking for!" No...my moments are Now. So...I did plant peas today! And after my medical tests are done tomorrow, I will go and get stuff I need to start my gourds and punkins...

I have been thinking... lol... such a dangerous thing, I know.

I dont want to wait until I die. I want to do this within the next 5 years. I'm a serious as a heart attack.

I'm so bloody sick of government and this bureaucratic BULLSHIT. I've come this far to sustainability and I need to go much further. I would like to live as people did before all of this. To be independent of money, taxes, the damn structure. Hell I'm not even sure about being green if it means I have to rely on industry to provide me parts. If I was stranded on an island it would be hard and I'd fight for my survival yet the reward is at the end of challenge when I arrive at peace and a connection to my universe. Now we can struggle to survive and it never ends. It makes us more tired, more fearful and spiritually unfulfilled. The root of this evil is money.

Is anyone else feeling this?

Sooooo, I think I'm going to make some changes and they could be drastic. There's so much more to life than this.
