My Bucket List


  • Hand make a scabbard - yep, for a sword - you know the kind where you carve from wood and then cover w/ leather.
  • Speaking of which - learn to leatherwork.
  • While i'm learning to leather work - I'd like to hand tool a western style holster rig for my gun - why? Because I think it would be KEWL!
  • Make & FINISH Jacqueline de Jonge's Becolourful Quilt Catch Me If You Can
  • Make lots of Jacqueline de Jonge's Becolourful Quilts just because they are so totally awesome
  • Make & FINISH Judy Niemeyer Quilt
  • Take a ride with my brother in our finished 1969 Boss 302
  • Digitize the family photos and create an album
  • Make the "Family Heirloom" quilt
  • Make my brother's Mustang quilt 


  • See how long I can go without getting on a plane again. I've done so much flying, I think I'm due a break. (To be honest - with unexplained things expanding in my head - call me weird, but do I really want to go up in a pressurized tube knowing that? Yikes!)
  • The Bucket list begins

    This blog is simply an ongoing list of random ideas, thoughts, ramblings, goals, and things I want to do while I still can. You see, I won't always be able to do these things. I've got Multiple Sclerosis. My time - more so my ability - to do things has been shortened. Sure, medicine is working on "cures" and "fixes"; in the meantime, my doctors told me to live for the day while I still have the ability to do as much as I can. So as I think of things I want to do, I'm going to try to post as they pop in my head :-) We'll see if I can get any crossed off my list as the days go by...
