Inspired by my friend Maya over at Musings of a Marfan Mom I decided to post my bucket list. I don't think I have before, but if so, oh well! She did it as part of a contest so check that out on her blog if you're interested, but I'm just posting mine for fun.
1. Own our own home.
2. Finish and publish a novel, preferably with some measure of success.
3. Get some dogs, probably Siberian Huskies.
4. Get a Master's degree.
5. Become a more patient and kind mother.
6. Travel to Hawaii, Alaska, the UK, Australia, Japan, and a bunch of other places.
7. Get back into drawing and painting.
8. Be in a musical.
9. Make exercise a part of my daily (or at least every-other-daily) life
10.Always maintain a reasonably clean home.
11.Live in forested mountains in a house that has a loft with a sliding glass door that leads to a balcony.
12.Do something meaningful with my degree in linguistics, like help preserve a dying language.
13.Pass my passions, loves, and beliefs on to my children, if they're willing.
14.See the world from the cockpit of an airplane, or from a helicopter, or some view that's wider than an airplane window.
15.Learn to be conversational in Spanish, French, Japanese, and for fun and shock value, Welsh.

when you learn welsh, call me on the phone and just talk to me, mmmk? it's a cool language!
and since you've posted, you might as well enter the contest! there are some vacations and a few $500 gift cards up for grabs. :-)
If you're ever remotely close to Davenport, I can help with #14! My dad would definitely take you up in his 2-seater.
@Maya - Ha ha, ok when I learn Welsh I'll call you!
I might enter the contest... I'll check it out again.
@Heather - Yes! That would be amazing! I'm sure I'll be in Chicago again sometime, and that's close enough!
I hope that I can be a little more like my mom with cleaning. Lately my house is making me sick with messes!!!
And traveling is on my list too!!!
