Before your time is up, name one or two things...

[catsrule]

Go to Hawaii, which I'm going to do very soon.

 

[Danauk]

I had 4 things I wanted to do in my life:
1) Go whitewater rafting - done
2) Visit the Grand Canyon - done (drove out to the Canyon and flew over it in a helicpoter and landed on the bottom.)
3) Swim with dolphins - done
4) Go up in a hot air balloon - still waiting to do that one.

 

[Lynn CC]

I'll die happy if my son is a well established happy adult out of college. So hopefully I have a few more years to go!

 

[snoopy]

Learn to speak French fluently
Learn to play a musical instrument
Experience my grandchildren
Travel the world
Live on the beach
Work in an art museum

(not much to ask for, eh?)

 

[Serena]

Most of all, I want to see my kids and grand kids and great grandkids, happy and healthy.

I'd like to travel, there are so many places I'd love to see and experience.

 

[doxdogy]

Travel. There are so many places I would love to visit. Living in Florida, we don't see snow. I would love to go to the mountains, rent a cabin and watch the snow fall. Then off to Scotland and then to Poland. My grandmother immigrated from Poland, my great-grandparents immigrated from Poland and I would just love to see their birthplace.

 

[Mskanga]

Blondie, you and I need to go to Africa together.
I want to take care of baby chimpanzees and gorillas ( always have been fascinated by them ).
I also would want to learn to play the piano.

 

[Pam]

I think I'll hang onto Mary's coat-tails:

1) Travel to Scotland and Ireland
2) Cruise to Alaska
3) Have been to 38 states - would like to visit all 50
4) Dance at my children's weddings

 

[Blondie]

4) Dance at my children's weddings

Good one!

 

[BrerLizzie]

i wanna get a tatoo and ride my horse in a show and take first in something!

 

[ElizK]

Annemarie, you and I might be kindred spirits.

I have always wanted to write children's books. I've dabbled in watercolor, and would love to do more. I want to see my 2 girls grown and settled into a happy life of their own. And I want to travel throughout Europe, especially Scotland and Ireland. And I want to go to college.

 

[Micca]

I want to win the lottery. Just once Y'all will like me as a multi-millionaire, I guarantee it.

 

[gina2000]

Travel the world with another adventurous spirit

Have a book published

Live to see our child become a happy, well-adjusted and successful human being

 

[ibouncetoo]

Looks like some of us need to get together for some collabortation...I'd love to write and illustrate a children's book!

 

[Boots]

1-Go on a dig. Somewhere historic. Maybe Mount Vernon or someplace like that.
2-Go back to Washington DC and spend a lot of time touring everything, especially the Smithsonian. Maybe spend an entire week just there.

You know the funny thing is, I don't like antiques.

 

[Alice28]

I would like to visit New York, London and Paris


And of course see my boys grow up to be well-adjusted men and marry a nice woman and have some grandkids for me!

 

[Talking Hands]

Get RID certification.
See my daughters married.

 

[bumcat]

Only one thing I would want to do:

Go to Arlington National Cemetery where my mom is buried and take a picture of her grave site. She died when I was 13 (34 yrs ago) but I can't seem to get up the nerve to go there.

 

[Hey|Crazy|Beautiful]

I want to start my own Journalism Magazine

+

Become a missionary in Central/South America.

Hi ElizK,

I have a collection of children's books (I can't remember when I started collecting). There are so many I just love. (Now my children do too. I have always wanted to write and illustrate children's books.

I've taken some short classes in creative writing and painting. I even sold a few paintings years ago. I had them in a small gallery. They weren't anything that would stop the earth from spinning or anything. Kind of folksy and colorful. I was so tickled when my first one sold, that I asked the owner what the buyer was like. And she told me the lady said she was feeling down and my little painting lifted her spirits. That really put a skip in my step. I took pictures of the ones I sold, with the intent to recreate them one day. That's on my list of things to do too. Recreate those and ones I gave away.

It would be nice if I could publish a children's book while my little ones are small. I read the author and illustrator's name to them and they know many of them. Wouldn't that be a neat surprise?

Nice to see a kindred spirit!
Annemarie
