Let's get ready to.... ROAD TRIP!


Final preparations for the North Carolina or Bust road trip are under way.  I am making a map so that I can update ya’ll on the progress as we go.  We will be driving the Hyundai Santa Fe, my WannaBEE!  I have some magnetic signs for the website that I will use to decorate it up…  WE are jumping in Bucket List Living NOW!!!!  Maybe I can increase my blog readership along the way!  J   

Just so you know - Cheesecake Factory, I was serious!  Here is my Cheesecake Factory trip map!  lol! (a HUGE THANK YOU TO MAPQUEST!)

No one has recommended any tunes yet, so I’ll just go with my CD collection.  My new Adele…  Also another album of the year – Lady Antebellum – We Own the Night…  Of course I’ll have my Rascal Flatts and Kenny Chesney..  My WannaBEE doesn’t have any new MP3 or iPod connectivity, but we will make do. 

Progress 86. Buy a Bumble Bee Car– DH’s truck will be paid off this spring.  Once we have a few more bills taken care of, maybe later this year I can take the car payment plunge again!  Lol!

Don't tell the Grammy's I forgot them! I NEED MUSIC!!!

After watching the Grammy’s last night, I’m musically inspired…  I do have a few musical items on my list… 

17.  Be on a music video shoot
35.  Be in a recording studio while a song is being recorded
60.  Attend the CMA’s
90.  Hang out with Kenny Chesney on a boat in the Caribbean
92.  Tell Rascal Flatts in person that they have recorded the soundtrack of my life
100.  Play the Big piano at FAO Schwartz

Ohhhh MY!  I thought the Grammy’s were on my list!

Now they are!
132. Attend the Grammy Awards 

I remembered some other things that didn’t make my list, but should have…  Guess I should have written them down b/c for the life of me I can’t remember…  UGH!

Okay, here’s a shout out to Music Monday – I have a road trip this weekend and need some tunes for the ride…  Nothing makes a road trip more fun than the sing sings!  Lol!  If you have a suggestion, PLEASE share!  In the spirit of the Grammy's I have already got the Adele CD ready and LOADED!!!!

My Mad singing some Adele... Happy me!


As much as I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE music, I can’t sing…  I love the instruments, the composition, the words.  When I was younger I thought I could sing and remember hours out on the swing set singing my heart out.  When I got older I learned how I really sound…  I don’t even make a joyful noise!  Needless to say nowhere on my bucket list does American Idol, the Voice, X-Factor – none of that shows up…   And one day you will thank me for that, especially if we get stuck in a car for hours…  That said, my young friend Madison would LOVE to be on any of those shows…  And WOW!  At the age of 14, if I had this much talent I could be singing with my favs…  Today’s Music Monday is dedicated to the bucket list of a young’en.  My buddy, crazy lady in training – Madison – sing it Mad!  Love ya girl!!!  And for those who are concerned over the bottles in the background - those are sparkling cider for a church Valentine's Banquet...

Why -Bucket List Living NOW?

This is the short answer -

Several years ago my sister and I went sky diving. A day later I visited my FIL who was fighting cancer at the time and I told him what I had just done, his reply - "I always wanted to do that and now I never will get to." Why do we wait until the end of our lives to start living our dreams? And doing the things we want to do? I'm done waiting on something else to happen before I choose ME - I'm bucket list living NOW!



Please join my adventure! If you wait, you WON'T!
