Has anyone seen The Bucket List with Morgan Freeman and Jack Nicholson? This is such a great movie...........you will laugh and you will cry.........sometimes at the same time.............
It is a story about 2 men who were terminally ill...........and a list they made of things they wanted to do before they "kicked the bucket". They made the list and than set out to do everything on that list.
Treas and I were talking about it the other morning about the movie and things we would want to do before we died if we knew that we were going to die in a certain time frame.........So I was wondering what would you put on a bucket list if you knew you only had 6 months to a year to live. In the movie Jack Nicholson was rich so money wasn't an issue in accomplishing what was on the list.......personally if i knew I was dying money wouldn't be an issue for me either.......I would just do what I wanted to do..........
If I was told today that I only had 6 months to a year to live these are the things I list on my bucket list to accomplish before I died.............
I would spend time with my best friends........and tell them how much i love them and appreciate them.
I would spend time with my daughter and take her to Europe.......even tho I don't really want to go ..........its been her dream for a long time........and I would want to share that expirence with her.
I would spend time with my son...........fishing and hunting.........because those are two things he loves to do and because I taught him how to fish and shoot a gun.......
I would write a long letter to my granddaughter telling her about how I felt about her and who i was so that when she got older she would know that I was in her life even for a short time.......
and than I would 
Rock climb in the Rockie Mountains cause I have only climbed rocks in small mountain ridges and it would be a challenge.
Hang gliding........
Watch the sunrise and sunset on top of a mountain.
Watch a foal being born. (I have seen this many times but the miracle of the birth is always something to behold)
Go Sailing.........as i have never been on a sailboat.....
I was going to say finish my book........but im going to do that anyways......lol
Visit the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Wall............
Walk around Arlington National Cemetary.........visit my late husbands grave......and visit other graves just to say Thank You.
And walk thru the Avenue of Pines...........a place that I consider the most beautiful place in the world........and where my ashes eventually will be scattered.........
Thats all i can think of right now but I am sure if the time came to make the list I could probably add to it..............so what would be on your bucket list?

I really want to go to Venezuela to see the highest waterfall in the world. A raft ride down the Amazon river with lots of bug repellant on. A raft ride up the Nile, then check out the pyrimids of Egypt. Check out some more giant waterfalls. And spend a day with you.  And a return trip to the Philippines and Thailand.

Well if it came down to it and Lisa was coming to California I would hope she come and see me, I have something straight I'd like to get between us.
If it were my ist I would have to say that I would have to have sex with all my favorites. IE; can'tstop, Lisa (of course),sassy...sensual, snickle, sxze, whispering comet, chocomilf, Barbiedoll_15 and last but not least Taocloud.....You go girl
Now after taking care of that list (boy I hope I get all the time I need) I'll be READY to go. 
P.S. If I got to stay longer I would love any additions to the "list"

I would spend time with my daughter and grandchildren leaving them with wonderful memories..One on one and as a family...I know there are places they would all like to see or visit. There wouldn't be enough hugs and kisses..But there never are now.. I would leave them each a personal letter to always remember how much I loved them and how truly special they are.
I would go hot air ballooning and parachuting, whether they say I can or not.. And scuba diving.. And swimming in the ocean again, and just lay on the sunny beach for a day enjoying the calm and the warmth of the sun.
I would go horseback riding in the mountains of Colorado again...Sunset or sunrise is a beautiful time to do that..
I would take my one best friend canoeing, because she has never been and she would always remember us doing it together and having a blast at it. Unless of course we drown..lol
I would go enjoy Tuscany..and of course I would really hope Rick would go with me.. It would be a trip to, ..well I was going to say last a lifetime...  Hopefully he would remember it all of his as one of his best memories Ever.
I would write letters for my dearest friends telling them the most wonderful things that I love about them. I would spend some time with them while I was able.
And as silly as it may sound, I would read a book....I love to read and I would want that chance one more time.
I know there's more.....but for now that's what I got...

I would sign my house over to my sister...get some traveling done..I have 2 very dear friends who live in England that I would love to go visit. I would take more walks with my dogs, spend more time out at the wild life refuge and watch the deer....and if I knew exactly to the day I was going to die....I'd call Congress and tell them to fuck off!

Before the movie I called my list "My Life List". I started my list very young when instead of saying "oh I will never do that" I started saying "someday I will do that".
But, if I only had 6 months to live I would spend it with my loved ones giving them the best memories of me I could. After all when we are gone what is left but memories.
