The idea of the 'Bucket List' is pretty popular these days. Everyone has a list of things they want to see/do before they die. People are listing and checking off items like, 'visit Nepal' and 'bungee jump from the world's tallest building'.
I don't have a bucket list, but I'm wondering if maybe I need to get on the stick and write one out. But what do I put on it? What is it I simply MUST do? There seems to be a lot of stress involved in simply coming up with the proper items. Do I go with actually attainable items? Do I shoot for the moon?
Ok, Ok....I'm gonna settle down and come up with some things I really would like to do.
After my recent 9 state road trip with 3 of my kids and my folks, I have decided that I really want to drive through the Appalachians. I would love to meander through towns, stop and talk to local folks and take pictures. Maybe I could turn it into a book?
Speaking of taking pictures, I would like to travel around...anywhere really...and take pictures. Not sure what to do with them, but it would be fun to just photo-document my journey.
I'd like to rent a villa in Italy and stay for a month....walk to a little store for food to cook each day's meals and lounge in the sunshine.
I would like to have a home on the ocean or at least a lake.
I would like to write a book.
I would like to go over and work in an orphanage.
I would like to have my vehicle back from the body shop where it is getting repaired after a little meet up with a pole in a parking lot. Hopefully I will be able to check this one off next Tuesday.
So, it's looking like I don't have a very exciting, much less, extensive bucket list. Oh well, I will keep thinking and maybe I will come up with some more interesting things to accomplish in life.
Rest assured that bungee jumping will never be on my list. Never.
