Musing on a 10 Count Bucket List.
Once again I surfed over to Stasha’s blog The Good Life to link up with Monday Listicles.
Because I am FABULOUS at making lists. They are on 3 x 5 cards littered all over my house — ask Diana Blanton, she will nod affirmative.
Implementing them is the problem.
That’s why this Monday’s list is perfect for me.
“10 things you’d like to see happen before you die”
Like any of these things are EVER going to happen, but I shall list away. Because I got an A+ in IB List Making at Winter Park High.
1. Me wearing bonnet, holding mint julep (holding onto the handrail for they are dreadfully strong drinks) standing in the grandstands at Churchill Downs cheering my thoroughbred (bought with earnings won buy me at a poker game) win the Kentucky Derby by 10 lengths. Okay, I’d just settle for making Churchhill Downs the first Saturday in May before I die.
2. Me learn to play poker. (See Number 1.)
3. The Eiffel Tower. Or be able to spell the word Eiffel without having to open another tab to look it up.
4. Run the marathon at Big Sur.
5. A brand spankin’ new right knee. (See Number 4.)
6. Me performing a stand-up routine in front of an live audience. Because I am getting tired trying out jokes in front of my daughter’s stuffed animals. They are cute, but just politely stare. (Except the Angry Birds. They give me attitude.)
The thought terrifies me but I think my list should include something scary and parachuting is so out of the question even for a pipe dream list like this.
7. The United States of America debt free.
8. Still laughing at Number 7. How about me debt free?
9. All my children finding their passion in life and being able to support themselves and life with someone they are wildly in love with. (And still remember to throw a couple bones my way when I need a knee replacement.)
10. The bottom of my laundry basket.
What about you? What would be on your list?
