My List

This is not a bucket list, I repeat : NOT A BUCKET LIST!

We only get this one life and most of us spend it by working too much, and not spending enough time with the family and making memories that are worth while. I want to when I am old and gray, raising hell in the nursing home to look back on my life and say " Yep I did that, I did what needed to be done but all my fun stuff along the way"

So I have set up a list of things I want to do before each birthday so that the last year while it was not wasted I want it to be a year where I did something I always wanted to do. No I will not be jumping out of planes or getting tattooed (allready am) but things that I think would be cool. Here Goes.... I warn you...some of it is Corney

You may notice that Forgive my mother is on there every year, well I dont know how long it will take but I want to. I want to get it right with God and with his help I can forgive and forget and move on. She will always be that thing in my side that always hurts but I know that with Gods help it wont hurt as much, it wont hurt as long and forgiveness will come easier.
