25 Things I would like to do...within the next 10 years (this idea stolen from Brent, but modified)
I want to be fluent in Spanish.
I want to be "fluent" in ballroom and latin dancing. Meaning I want to be able to dance smoothly.
I want to be able to make a positive difference in the lives of my students.
I want to be a better friend.
I want to be a grandma who's fun. (No pressure. I said within 10 years.)
I want to go to Italy with my family (including parents and brothers).
I want to have another family reunion that's not a wedding or a funeral.
I want my garage to be clean.
I want to go on a real vacation with my husband where work is not an option.
I want the school year to be shorter and summers to be longer. (I'm a teacher.)
I want to exercise more. (without my back hurting)
I want to go back to London and Paris with Bob even if he has to work on the trip.
I want to be used by God to bring someone into a relationship with Him.
I want to get all my photographs organized before I forget who the people are in the pictures.
I want to be free of debt. (oh, this might take a little longer.)
I want to remodel my master bathroom. (see why the previous point might not happen?)
I want to save some money for retirement. (should have thought of that a while ago. the bathroom remodel may not happen.)
I want to see my children playing music together. (The girls on the piano and Steve on the guitar.)
I want to have Lasik, but I'll let Bob go first.
I want to be computer-savvy. Technology-competent.
I want to go on a mission trip.
I want to see my parents turn 80 and have four generations present at a reunion.
I want to make a difference in the lives of the high school girls I teach in small group bible study.
I want to grow my hair long again. (shades of the 70's)
And...I want to finish this blog!

I like your list.
I like you.
I can help you with the mission trip thing!
And, I'll let you and Bob BOTH go first on the lasik thing...I'm a chicken.
I like your list too! Especially about being "80"-after tomorrow, only 9 years to go!!! And we do need to have another family reunion with T-shirts and all. Can we fit everyone on it???
I have a short book you would enjoy by Michael Yaconnelli. It's called "Dangerous Wonder." You would like it because it's about seeing God through the eyes of "childlike" faith. It's a quick read. Let me know if you'd like to check it out!
Yes, I would like to read it. Thanks!
I'll be at church tomorrow at 5. If you will be there around that time let me know and I'll bring it!
We will probably be at the 6:30 service. Do you want to leave it at the greeters table? I can pick it up there. Thanks so much!
I'll leave it there with your name on it!
Excellent, love it! »
