My Bucket List

My friend, Jennifer Witcher, asked on Facebook

 what five things would be on our bucket

list if $'s were unlimited.

I've given a lot of thought to her question.

At 76 years old do I still have a bucket list?

I'm afraid my immediate answers

sounded like a Miss America candidate--

world peace, end to hunger, etc.

But...don't be so literal, Linda!

Lighten up, girl!

So...

#1 would be the same as the several other

responders to Jennifer's question.

Lose weight.  No, I'm not saying

how many pounds. 

#2  Learn to play my violin.

Yes, I have a violin.  It is under my bed. 

I took 3 or 4 lessons, but my teacher

moved.  (I hope it wasn't me!)

#3 Exercise faithfully.

Yes, this would also help with #1.

I'm starting today.

I'm not joking.

#4 Ride the Trinity Trail on my bicycle.

I have always wanted to do this!

I have the bicycle.  I have the carrier.

(I have the osteoporosis!)

#5 Have my closets, my garage, my 

whole house organized!

This is where the unlimited $'s come

into play!

It would be $$$$ to have all the 

stuff I've accumulated in 58 years

sorted through and organized.

I can't afford myself. 

But...

I hope I never get too old to have a

bucket list.
