Bucket list

 

It's all about bucket lists this week on the Spin Cycle with Gretchen at Second Blooming.  What things have I always wanted to do?  What things would I like to do before it's my "time?"  I haven't really thought about it, honestly.  I mean, the biggest item on my list was go to Ireland, and we did that, as well as go to the Guinness Storehouse, so I can die happy, right? 

 

 

But I'm sure I can come up with some things...so here are just a few things I would like to do in my time.  (In no particular order, of course):

 

 

Get married to the love of my life (check)

Start a family (check)

Go to Ireland and drink lots of guinness (check)

Write a book (I started this way back when and yeah....it hasn't gone anywhere)

Start my own law practice

Travel across the country (road trip!)

See the Pacific Ocean

Make Thanksgiving dinner for my family

Go sledding.  Seriously, I have never been sledding.

Go on a hot air balloon ride

Meet a U.S. Supreme Court Justice...preferably not one of the following:  Scalia, Alito or Thomas

Go to Hawaii

Go to Spain and meet one of my bloggy friends, Chloe, her husband MJ, and their new baby who is on the way!

On that same note, travel through Europe, including going back to Dublin

Become grandparents (faaaar in the future)

Become ridiculously, independently wealthy

AND completely pay off Sallie Mae so I can get rid of that (insert not nice word) for good

 

 

So while this list might not be glamorous, and I'm sure, given a little more creativity, I could come up with more, I think it's a good start.  And look!  I'm already checking items off!  

 

 

So wish me luck this weekend...I'm going to be the crazy woman getting up at 5:30 a.m. on a Saturday to run 13.1 miles in what is looking like will be a rainy morning.  Keeping my fingers crossed that the rain holds off!  Have a good weekend!
