forgave my parents
found God
slept under the stars
ate and loved foi gras and drank Dom Perignon
stayed in love

understand the charm of a apron
play an instrument with some decree of skill
play that instrument in church

Spent a whole day eating junk food without feeling guilty.
Made love outdoors
learnt how to sweat pipes
Had a room with a view
Sent a message in a bottle
Took a horse and buggy ride.

Planted trees.
Learnt not to say yes when I really mean no
Made a complete and utter fool of myself many times
Took a ride on the highest roller coaster in the city

Became a mentor to a young person who needed direction
Become a good listener
Spontaneously gave flowers to my husband for no reason

Learn to ballroom dance properly
Be an extra in a film
Make my own wine
Develope a talent for photography

Ohh thank you for posting and coming back. I so loved reading this. You've lived a wonderfully glorious life and your so many of your deeds and dreams are similar to mine.
I love this post and I hope all your "buckets" get fullfilled.
Wow - you have a great list! gave me some ideas of things I would like to do - especially spending New Years in an exotic location and going to Ireland. You have a nice life to reflect back upon.
