I know this is so random...but whats on your bucket list? and what are you doing to accomplish it?
I have some big things and some smaller
sky diving-accomplished
Hand gliding,
bungee jumping,
exploring Italy,
going on a safari in Africa,
jumping off a cliff into the water in Hawaii
taking my kids through the gates of the old city in Jerusalem
running a marathon- training myself to run more every day
and the biggest and hardest but most important....
Raising 3 children to become good, ethical, moral, amazing, giving, loving, kind, honest, good and successful adults

    hmm I don't know. Will have to really think about it. I do know I want to see African Elephants in their own natural habitat. I think it would be amazing to watch them out on the Africa Savannah. I have already played with a tiger a few times and it was the most amazing experience ever- I will never forget it.

    To feel that I made a difference while I was here.

    To be missed, at least for a while after I am not.

    To be comfortable for who/what I am, not what I wish I had been.

    And at the end, to be called out sliding into Home Plate, not caught looking.

    I just printed out my Life List (my name for bucket list, the positive side) from 2000. It was on my dead laptop hard drive which I had made into a external hard drive. I haven't added anything to it since then and I have plenty to add but I was glad to see that I had done a few things on the original list...like go to England and go soring.

    Other things on my list yet to be realized is..

    Die a size 8
    Live a size 8
    publish a book

    Beautifully worded.....brought a tear to my eye.
