This blog is basically just a collection of my "random thoughts". I must warn you, though. I have been told that "I write like I talk", so if you don't understand what you are reading... chances are, if you met me... I wouldn't make much sense to you! Feel free to comment if you care to. Or not. I'm good either way!

Bucket List #19-21

I am a day late posting these next three. Sorry about that! I got interrupted and had to wait until today to finish! ~ Enjoy!

#19 --- Camp at least one night in every state --- I'm not so sure that this is going to actually happen.... but, hey... I can still dream about it! Ya see.... Hubby and I used to talk about traveling all over the country while towing a 5th wheel (a VERY large camper, for those of you that don't know!), but now I'm not so sure that he's still wanting to do that. His thoughts on camping have changed a bit. I still think that this would be a blast to do, but I can't do it by myself!


#20 --- Go camping in NC and go white water rafting as family. --- Now... THIS we CAN do with the "pop-up" camper that we have now! I have only been white water rafting one time and LOVED IT! I went with our church youth group to the North Carolina mountains for a youth retreat and while we were there, we went rafting. We went down the Nantahala River. It wasn't really rough until the end, but it was great fun! Dtr. #1 was with me. Hubby & Dtr. #2 have never been. I think it would be so much fun to do it as a family!

                                          

#21 --- Attend the Country Music Festival in Nashville with my girls --- This is something that my girls and I have always wanted to do!! It looks like so much fun! We would stay in downtown Nashville and go to all the concerts that we could! We would stand in lines to meet our favorite singers and hopefully even get to attend some fan parties, too! Yes, it would be crazy! And yes, it would be wild! But.... FUN!!!

Bucket List #1-3

Since my mind has been blank lately and I haven't been writing, I decided to blog about my BUCKET LIST! I wrote this Bucket List several years ago, around the time the movie "The Bucket List" came out with Morgan Freeman & Jack Nicholson in it. --- A movie that I really need to go back and watch!

I think I will blog about 3 things on my list per blog entry. That will spread them out over.... gotta' think here a minute.... about 33. 3 days. So, that's a whole month's (plus more!) worth of blogging! Wahooo!!!!!

By the way.... the things on this list are in no real order. They are just in the order that they came to my mind when I wrote the list.

#1 --- Live to see my girls marry the right man, have children and be happy --- Yes. This is very important to me. I want to live long enough to see them each marry, settle down, have children, and be happy. Of course, they can't just marry "anybody"! He has to be the right guy for them. Someone that I know will love and respect them, and take care of them, the way that they deserve to be. I want to see each of them settled into a nice home and start their families. If they choose to have a career... I pray that they are working and doing something that they love and not working just because they have to pay the bills. I pray that their children are all born healthy and that my children live to see this very thing happen to their children.

# 2 --- Celebrate 50+ years of marriage with my Hubby --- We are already at 25 years! We just have 25 more to go!! I pray that we can make it to 50 years and even longer! I pray that we are both healthy and are still very active. I pray that our love will do nothing but grow stronger.

# 3 --- Visit all 50 states --- Yes. I want to travel all over the country and visit each state. Not at one time, of course! But, over time. I have already been to 13, but still have a long way to go! I live in Georgia, and have been (by car) as far west as Louisiana and as far north as New Jersey. And then of course, I have been to Tennessee and Florida. So far......the most beautiful countryside that I have ever seen is when I went to Lancaster, Pennsylvania with my mother-in-law. The prettiest beach that I have ever seen is Santa Rosa Beach on the Gulf Coast. The best city that I've been to is a toss up between Nashville & New Orleans. Well.... I guess I need to throw Washington D.C. into that mix, as well. It's a great place to visit, too!
