On my mind...

Can you truly appreciate home if you've never had the chance to miss it?

Bucket List...

Ok, I realize it has been 5 months since I last blogged and I'm sorry. However, you should be used to it by now.

I was recently reading my good pal Andrea's blog and she had posted her "Bucket List". I have been keeping a running "bucket list" myself on my good ol' iphone ever since I saw the show the Buried Life. That is a great show and if you've never seen it you should go to MTV and look up the episodes. Anyway, after reading Andrea's list, ours have many similarities btw, I decided I should post mine as well. So here is my list to date, in no particular order:

Write a children's book
Learn to surf
Swim w/ dolphins
Change my own oil
Play catch on a major league baseball field
Dance with Maks
Finish my brother's scrapbook
Swing on a trapeze
Learn to sail
Attend a taping of Ellen
Workout with Bob/Jillian
Go to a World Series game
Cook with Curtis Stone
Search for buried treasure
Explore a sunken ship
Snowboard
Graduate college
Buy a house
Be debt free
Take spur of the moment road trip
Lay on the beach of every major ocean
Visit every continent
Hug a baby bear or tiger
Get married
Learn another language
Visit all 50 states (especially Hawaii)
Own a house with a big porch overlooking the ocean
Build a house with Habitat for Humanity
Go scuba diving at the Great Barrier Reef
Watch them change the floor at the AAC from baseketball to ice hockey
Open a summer camp for kids

This is an ongoing list. Obviously some of these items are a bit more ambitious than others, but whatever. I think they will all be fun. If anyone would like to help me accomplish any of these goals, let me know :)
