I have many things, but the one thing I really, really want to do, is to visit Asia, as in, China, Thailand, VietNam, Japan, India...that part of the world. I love the culture, the art, the everything there. My ultimate, would be to live in that part of the world before I kick the bucket.

Hummm...my bucket list...

1. Drive coast to coast, northern route one way, southern route the other.
2. Go to Ireland
3. Learn to fly (well I was taking lessons, I divorced my instructor, so I would like to start again, not with him, though he was a great instructor and excellent pilot and that's about all the nice things I can say about him)
4. Completely let the past go. (appropriate after my comment above)
5. Go to Alaska
6. Get the guts to quit my job
7. Spoil my grandchildren (at this point I have been told I may not have any, I told her that she is my only shot so she is going to have to take one for the team...lol)

I know there is more.... I may just come back and edit this.

A couple things I have checked off....

1. Find a man that loves me completely for who I am
2. Get my daughter to 18 without any major problems (drug, pregnancy etc.)
3. Make the financial sacrifices to give my daughter the private school education she deserved
4. Go to Yosemite
5. Go to Belize
6. Go to Hawaii
7. Be proud of who I am and what I have accomplished.
8. Find strength within myself to overcome anything.
9. Go to Canada (ok, been there a few times, but wanted CrazyJames to know that I already checked it off my list that I wasn't forgetting about Canada)

and a few other things
