So, I just watched Stranger than Fiction and in it Harold asks his friend what he would do if he knew he was going to die - he said Space Camp, but I don't think I share that dream. So I made a list of what I want to do in this life. No, it's not a "bucket list" because I haven't even seen the movie and I have made variations of this list long before that movie ever came out! Ask Robyn - we talked about them in high school! I wish I could find the ones I've started before, but oh well.
My "To Do" List
- Travel to at least one country on every continent (especially
- Skydive
- Write a book
- Be a mom
- Ride a tandum bike again
- Run a successful floral business
- Sing in church
- Learn to play the piano well and learn how to play the guitar
- Take a road trip across the
- Knit an entire scarf without giving up at potholder size
- Take a dance class (ballet/jazz/whatever)
- Meet Michael Buble in person. Oh! Oh! OR JK Rowling! or both...both good, both favorites
- Learn how to really cook
- Go fishing at least once, but not have to clean the fish or eat it or anything
- Fly in a helicopter
- Learn how to interior design
- Learn how to paint and then paint something really cool
- Be at least half as good of a friend as mine have always been to me
- See "Chicago" (the band) live
- Go to a Broadway Production in New York
- Pet/kiss/ride a dolphin
- Touch a (tamed) Porcupine
- See a real, live moose (already did that in Alaska, but it really was on my old list)
- See Brian Regan live - so funny!
- Overcome my fear of birds, fish, snakes...animals in general
- Be able to touch flour and not cringe - seriously, it's like nails on a chalkboard for me
- Be fearless
- Magically find some athletic coordination so I can be better at sports, etc. Dude, I struggle!
- Really learn my left from my right
- Read/study the entire Bible from cover to cover
- Do yoga on the beach every morning again, like I did on the French Riviera. So peaceful, sigh.
- Be in a real life musical

LOVE your list. I share in half of those. A ride in a helicopter would be so sweet.
And Stranger than Fiction! Don't you love? I just blogged about it, too. Missed you at the Bravery this week. If Mitchel tells you I was embarrassing... well, he is right. :)
If you think back you will remember our scary encounter with a bird. CRAZY! Also I agree with everythig and many are mine also, however how come marriage didn't make the list? Are you going to be a mom without a hubs?
i LOVE that movie. it's so fantastic on so many levels. i have to say, i have a secret (well no secret now)that i want to write a book someday too. i have NO CLUE what i am ever going to write about, and maybe i just wish i had the all the skills it takes to write a book, who knows...someday. i've said it before, but we are more alike than we ever knew. i miss you. too bad you didn't find a floral design school in edmonton.
