I shared my completed Bucket List from the book, "My Ultimate Bucket List" last month.
Now, I'm sharing my To-Do List!
Of course, some will be easier, and others not so much... Some will take time to occur, and some will take $$$.
In book order, not mine:
1. take a cruise
2. visit Las Vegas
3. plant trees {I've done this, but want to plant more!}
4. learn to play instrument(s) {Again, done it, but I'd like to expand my skills.}
5. learn a new language {This may be difficult; I *barely* passed my spoken language sections in college!}
6. write a song
7. send a secret admirer letter {My eldest daughter says this is impossible, but someone I admire doesn't mean love!}
8. start a blog and keep it going for a year {Thanks friends! You're participating with this one!}
9. raise chickens for fresh eggs {Can't happen at our current place...}
10. participate in open mic night
11. start a weekly family game
12. experience the northern lights
13. get on Jeopardy
14. throw a dart at a map and go where it lands
15. witness a geyser erupting
16. create your own game
17. read over 100 books in a year {Maybe when my kids are older!!}
18. sleep in a hammock
19. make someone's wish come true {Anyone with a wish?}
20. have an Alice in Wonderland themed dinner party
21. create a children's book
22. volunteer at a homeless shelter
23. take a pottery class
24. visit 5 National Parks
25. visit Hawaii
26. create a new recipe {Lots of modified recipes, but I don't think those count.}
27. visit all 50 states {Family vacations when I was a kid got me halfway.}
28. explore the Grand Canyon
29. see an eclipse {Debating whether that's happening for us driving to see totality this month or not...}
30. pay it forward every day for a week
31. serenade someone in public {I've done this as part of Sweet Adeline Valentine quartets, but not alone!}
32. solve a Rubik's cube {My nephew can, so maybe he can teach me!}
33. take toys to a children's hospital
34. be part of a flash mob {I would LOVE to do this singing Hallelujah Chorus!!!}
35. attend Olympic Games
36. read the Bible {I want to make this a yearly plan!}
37. go scuba diving
38. visit a volcano
39. mentor a young person {I have, but this is repeatable!}
40. see my children graduate high school, college, marry, have children...
I may be able to combine a few items on my list, for example, visit Hawaii and a volcano, and maybe visiting all 50 states if that's the last one, but those 3 are going to take me a while yet. Several others, whether due to time or money constraints, will also take some time to happen.
I see a strong creative interest pattern, with playing instruments, writing a song, creating a game, writing a children's book, taking a pottery class, and inventing a recipe. I'm currently working on paring down and organizing my sewing and craft closet space, so that should help. We've been decluttering and simplifying our lives for a long time, and wishing to never find ourselves in such an awkward space again!
So, now you know my bucket list; what's on yours? Anything that I should add to mine?
