No matter where we are in being a housewife whether it is a working housewife, s-a-h housewife, with kids, no kids; we always have dreams of something we want to see or go do. Maybe the season we are in won’t allow the travel, but it will allow learning how to crochet, make crafts, cook from scratch. It can be fun to write out a list and think of anything and everything that we have ever wanted to see or do or just try to say we did.
I have multiple lists written at different times in my old scrapbooks and it is fun looking back and seeing what has happened. Somethings just look ridiculous now and I cross them off my list without being done! There are others that I excitedly cross off and will forever hold it in my heart as a Cloud 9 experience. Then there are the few that I just smile at saying it would be nice, but doubt that it will actually happen.
I have started a bucket list here on the blog that will be updated as I cross things off or find new things to add. As a reminder to have a goal, something to work towards. Somethings might not be possible now, but it doesn’t mean it won’t be in the next season of life.
Sample Bucket List (Full list here)
Have you written a bucket list? Have you ever had a Cloud 9 moment of crossing something off your bucket list? What was it?
Hmmm, I guess the only way I can answer your last question is to either post a link or write a reallllly loooong response …so here: http://wanderinground.wordpress.com/2011/03/20/the-bucket-list/
Good post. I do love reading the “Bucket List’s” as each one is so different from the next, yet so similar in many ways.

John, thank you for stopping by the blog. I know that we want to adopt, just not sure what doors will open one day and how many kids will be able to walk through at that time ;). It is fun to see the similarities and differences in bucket lists! I’d have to say that yours made my breath catch a couple of times as how much more “dangerous” it seemed! Thanks again for checking out the page!
This is really cool! I love the idea of a bucket list, but think it wouldn’t work as intended for me. I work much better with short goals. But, Ryan and I do have a travel list. It helps us pick our trips every year and we can save money by comparing destinations.
Lookingforward to seeing the checks on your list. =)
Travel lists are a must! Think it might take a lifetime to try and do them, but it is a great goal to work towards! Thanks for checking out the blog!
