Yes, I have finally done it. Started a Bucket List. Why, you ask? I was reading a magazine the other day and there was an article about Amsterdam and it just looked so pretty that I thought I would really love to go there and see it. So I put it in my note section on my phone, and while I was doing that, I started thinking of other things I wanted to do in the future, and then it hit me that yes, this could be the ever elusive Bucket List.
Right now there are only those four things on it, and each one is something I had been talking about just recently, and I figured they were as good as any to put on the list. I've always liked to write and have been jotting down ideas and titles for books to write; and last week we were watching one of those shows about fixing up cars and they had this El Camino on it and oh my they took this old rusty heap of one and turned it into an absolutely beautiful car and I was like, I really need to own another El Camino in my life time. And it is a car that is still around and there are ads for them. I did actually go to Hawaii once.....for an hour. It was the first time I went to Okinawa back in 1976 when Ed was stationed there, and we landed there long enough to get a glass of fresh pineapple juice (nothing else like it...it was delicious!). So after joking around a week ago about Sean Michael flying home alone and hopefully he wouldn't end up in Hawaii but if he did I definitely would go get him, I decided that should go on the list too.
So there we have it. I have a Bucket List. Or the beginnings of one anyway. I'm not sure how long or short they're supposed to be, I suppose it doesn't really matter? What matters is trying to make them happen so you can cross them off and be able to say "Yep, I've been there" or "I've done that" or "I own that". Here's hoping.
Someday.
