I see a lot of Bucket Lists out there and I considered making one for myself until I realized this morning that my list is really one that is more impressive from an achievement standpoint, rather than a goals standpoint. It’s just that I like the spontaneity of where my life takes me from one day to the next.
So rather than having a bucket list such as this one:
- Climb Mt. Everest
- Kill and cook my own dinner
- Join mile high club (those bathrooms are SO small!)
- Travel all of Europe with only a backpack(yeah… like the backpack part’ll ever happen!)
My list is as follows:
- Push 7.5lb human from extremely small opening in body: CHECK
- Deer hunting w/ hubby in an attempt to kill my own dinner (what was I thinking?): CHECK
- Fall down county courthouse steps and take my attorney with me(that was fun!): CHECK
- accidentally Insult client with misdirected, snarky reply-all email: CHECK
- Take header off of back deck, graze entire forearm against an overgrown rose-bush and nearly break my neck: CHECK
There you have it – the surprising events in life are really what make it so… much… fun!
To further this argument, I tried to attempt the stylistic and artsy feel of this quilt. And, as many of you know, I’m really not a quilter – I get bored easily and without a change in direction, they end up in my closet, unfinished. There are two there now, as a matter of fact.
So, wild-hair in place, I got to cutting last weekend and this is what I have so far. Disappointing!
I thought the color combinations were coming together just fine and then I started laying it out and now I think it sucks rocks!
Maybe it’s the lighting?
