Bucket, bucket, bucket list. Ok, this is gonna be a LONG ass post,
so, I hope you are ready for it. My bucket list is long. I want to do
so much before I kick it. I can't pick just the top items on the list, so, I thought I would grace you all with my ENTIRE bucket list. I doubt I will get to accomplish a lot of
it, but, it's on the list, so if I do, YAY for me!
Let's get down to business. Starting
with the most attainable things on the list first.
- See the Texas Bluebonnets. Photograph them. Be happy.
- Put together a family cookbook. Started on this once, need to restart. Somehow I lost the notebook that had all my shit in it. Damnit.
- Make a crochet granny square blanket.
- Knit myself a pair of socks. Might take the rest of my life, but, hopefully I will accomplish this one day!
- Vacation in Gatlinburg, TN. It's beautiful there.
- Make bath salts. Not the kind that make you crazy, the kind you actually soak your body in.
- Start and continue a gratitude journal.
- Keep a daily journal for at least one year.
- Can foods. All kinds. Master the art.
- Figure out how to mold my children into amazing adults.
- Do a photo a day for a entire year.
- Stay just one night at the Ritz Carlton. Just to experience it.
- Go to the Bonaventure Cemetary in Savannah, Georgia.
- Take time to photograph the Bell Gable in Fayetteville, Arkansas.
- See the big Jesus and the Thorncrown Chapel in Eureka Springs, Arkansas.
- See the Proxy Falls and Multnoma Falls in Oregon.
- Have a love that lasts a lifetime. A love that actually follows vows. A love that is REAL.
- Watch my babies get married, and start lives of their own.
- Have grandbabies. Love them. Play with them. Laugh at them.
- Live on my family compound. (That comes with a whole bucket list of it's own.)
Now, on to the hopes and dreams.
Because let's be honest, it's gonna cost a LOT of money for me to
actually make these things attainable.
- Trampoline bridge in France. Why? Because I would LOVE to pee my pants while crossing a trampoline bridge over a river in France. That's why.
- Visit Jerusalem. Walk where Jesus walked. (I went to Memphis and walked where Elvis walked. I stood in the studio he recorded in. I got chills. It was amazing. I can't imagine how much more amazing it would be to experience where Jesus was.)
- Go to Germany. EAT. DRINK. Be merry.
- Go to Greece. Eat some more and take some AMAZING photos.
- Go to England. Visit London, where my Daddy was born.
- Head over to Whales while I'm there. Rumor has it, we have some family roots in Whales.
- Tour Scotland. Because it's pretty.
- Visit the Fairy Pools in Isle of Skye, Scotland while I am there.
- Tour Ireland. Because it's pretty too. And I want to dance naked under the full moon with the fairies. (If you have to ask, clearly, you don't get it.)
- Find some of the most amazing castles and ruins in Europe and photograph them. For my own personal happiness.
- See the pink lake in Australia.
- Go to the Glass Beach in Hawaii.
- Visit the Crimson Forrest in Poland. Just because it's gorgeous!!!
- Go on an Alaskan Cruise. See the Northern Lights. Just once.
There you have it. The beginnings of my
bucket list. Maybe one day will cheerfully announce that I have
accomplished EVERYTHING on my list. I'm gonna plan for that.
Shoot for the moon and I will at least
land among the stars, RIGHT? Right. I thought you would see it my
way.
Off to survive the rest of my Saturday.
Love, hugs and smooches....to most of
you.
