So, lately I've been thinking about my past interests. One of them being traveling. There are SOOOOOOOOO many places I still want to go to that are on my bucket list. And in just 8 short years I WILL begin making it happen. Why 8 years? Well, in 8 years both my kids will be 18 or older. Which will free me up to do my own thing. I've seen how fast 12 years has gone by, so I know 8 years is a blink away from now. :)
So, this afternoon while waiting for my laptop to get diagnosed with nothing. Grrrr, I spent the day writing down all the places I wanted to visit. Before I knew it, I had a pretty long list of places on my paper. I have several countries I want to go to, and tons of landmarks in each. I also found many places that I want to go see in the US too!! Nonetheless I'm so excited by this and want to begin learning about all the places I am interested in seeing.
Nothing more exciting to me that finding new things to do with my free time. This is one of those times that I can't wait to begin. I am going to go to the library tomorrow to start my research.
So, late tonight, me and Ethan were up together after Aiden fell asleep. He as astounded to learn of all my music tastes. He thought I only listened to soft rock or girly music as he put it. haha I love how the mind of an 11 year old works. When he found out that I loved many of the bands that he does, he kinda just was in awe and sat across the room staring at me, as if I was a stranger to him. I finally said to him, just because I don't allow you to listen to certain music, doesn't mean I hate it, it just means you're too young to be listening to the lyrics at this time. He now truly understands and seems to respect my wishes a little more. :)
While listening to music together, I remembered how much I used to love country line dancing!! I mean I really loved it. I used to line dance waay back when I lived in WA. State. I remember, that after work, I'd go to this hall and practice with several other people. It was a LOT of fun and a lot of movement. But, it was the first time I began to appreciate SOME country music. I emphasis some! I'm not a big fan in general at all, but can tolerate some just because I had so much fun dancing to it back in the day. As I was remembering that time, it made me wish I could do it again. However, lacking the mobility, I most likely will have to add that to my bucket list as well. ::sighs:: ahh well.
So yes, just catching up. LOVE Fridays!
