Working on My Life List

Life List #122 Start a Blog

Although in no particular order one of the things on my life list is to start a blog...although very bare and generic at this point it wasn't too hard to do...to my surprise. I just signed up...lol....I will have my thirteen year old daughter help me spruce it up a bit as she is very well familiar with the computer.

I love working as an oncology nurse which I have done for nearly twenty years...this has given me a profound reverence and appreciation for life andI decided that now is the time to work on my life list and experiencing the things I have so long dreamed of doing.

Growing up my grandmother lived two doors down and my mother was caretaker to everyone...my grandmother, all the kids in the family, my elderly aunts, etc. etc.......and it seems as though I have grown right into that role as well.....not that I mind it, I'm a great caretaker but all of a sudden I am ready for an exciting life.

My main goal is to travel and travel and then travel some more and see the world. I also have a lot of little things on my list that I am enjoying working toward and this has really turned out to be such a great fun experience.

Twenty things on my life list include but in no order of significance:
