    1. To lose all my excess weight and be fit.
    2. To own a house with land where I can have a garden and several fruit trees.
    3. To see England/Scotland (and many other places, but the others aren't part of the bucket list Top 5).
    4. To make some kind of major contribution that improves people's lives (could be a scientific discovery, an invention, or a business product or service, just something that really helps people in some way).
    5. To find my soulmate. (He hasn't shown up yet, so I don't have much hope for this, but it can still happen.)

    It's understandable, and there is a genuine risk with flying. But the vast, vast majority of flights go just fine.

    For now, start by just thinking about it. Maybe daydream about it, because you control the daydream. Enjoy the daydream, the plane smoothly rolling down the runway, then just the slightest angle upward and you're off the ground! Soon after, you have the coolest view of the city or town, and soon after that, you're above the clouds and can really see the heavens. Eventually, they will show a movie or maybe some short shows, and except for the shortest flights, they'll bring around beverages and snacks. Not long after they come around to take your cups, it's time to land, and you are rolling smoothly towards the gate of an airport in another city.

    When you do feel ready to make your first flight, choose a fairly short one, like two hours or less. Pick a larger plane (you may have to go to a larger airport to avoid the puddle jumpers), because they fly the smoothest. And just enjoy it!

    2. Visit Ireland
    3. Have enough money and space to take in dogs no one else wants especially the old ones and the broken ones.
    4.See my DD in a good relationship
    5. See my DGD get her wish of being a herpetologist. (money for college)

    That's just a few but today its the top five.

    1. See my children grown and happily married with children of their own.
    2. Move South, but take my parents with us! (Oh and have my children all buy homes in the same neighborhood as us when they are grown up!)
    3. Retire and travel with my hubby.
    4. Buy our next home with enough room for a craft room, and a small farm where we could have horses, goats, and a bigger garden.
    5. Become healthier so I can live a long life with my family.

    Things you want to do before you kick the bucket.

    1. To see a cure for Parkinsons, cancer and all other diseases.
    2. To have my husband well enough to see our grandchildren graduate from school and go on to do the best they can do in life.
    3. To have financial security so we won't have to worry about money.
    4. To travel again.
    5. To live in happiness always.
    I quilt and will continue to quilt so that doesn't need to be on my bucket list.
