This is a repeat of my bucket lost post but I needed to see it again.
Do you have a bucket list? I have read that written goals have a better chance of coming true and that is what a bucket list is. It’s a list of all the things you’d like to do you kick the bucket. Quite a while ago when I was taking a graduate course our professor asked us to list five things we’d like to do in the future. As a lark I put down "Go to Paris". It was a far fetched goal..one I thought I’d never in a million years get to do. But within five year I went to Germany with my sister and we took a train to Paris. I still pinch myself to make sure it was true.
So after that I made a bucket list and crossed them off one by one. I didn’t make a deliberate plan to accomplish all the things on the list, but one by one they were crossed off. There are still some things left to do and I need to add more. But here is the list:
Go to Paris again.
Experience Tuscany.
Take a cooking class.
Study painting and become an artist.
Go to a spa and have a facial. Read along the beach. Take a vacation to Alaska with Don.

Sorry, I accidentally deleted all the comments. My apologies.
ReplyDeleteOh go for the cutting garden, Peggy! My grandmothers and great aunts had them, and my early life was full of flowers! They are wonderful! Paris was on my bucket list, and I finally made it there last spring. It's sad to think that Parisians are going through such a sad day today! Good luck crossing those uncrossed items off!
