life list

In past months, years even I found myself wishing and/or wanting things I know I can't have.  A friend recently said "you can have both, you just can't have them at the same time."  Seems a little unfair.  Life isn't fair though.  And if life doesn't turn out the way you want you really only have yourself to blame.  --- All things I know to be true, doesn't mean it can't suck though.


This is my [running] list of things I want to do in my life:

• eat whatever I want [including gobs of cheese and loads of cookies]
• be skinny [or at least healthy]
• live on a farm [aka own chickens, wear wellies a lot, have a field to run in]
• live in a cool loft in a big city
• live in a modern home with a great view
• have an voluptuous outdoor space [with a dining area and a hammock]
• eat meals out of my own garden
• be an amazing cook
• buy, refurb, and sell old furniture
• plan/carry out crazy, awesome, exquisite events [weddings included]
• own a lamp shop
• be able to pick flowers out of my yard to create breath taking arrangements
• live without a care in the world
• be responsible
• have a short bob [haircut]
• have amazing, luscious long locks
• be glamorous
• be the kind of person who always feels great in a sweatshirt
• be content after a day filled with nothing
• never be content because then I would never be growing as a person
• make amazing, huge, beautiful hair accessories
• make jewelry and purses
• make cloth napkins and table cloths and cake stands
• own a pecan orchard
• have roots/traditions
• have small, quaint vintage home store/ stuff you can rent for parties store
• live on a beach [or any body of water]
• live on a whim
• be a baker who makes beautiful cakes
• own a big huge empty barn to have parties in
• take risks
