I was "tagged" by Julie at Wandering Sails, and here's what I came up with tonight, but keep in mind that I'm rambling and capricious so my list may not be the same after a good night's sleep...
I was "tagged" by Julie at Wandering Sails, and here's what I came up with tonight, but keep in mind that I'm rambling and capricious so my list may not be the same after a good night's sleep...
Things I want to do before I die, God willing:
- see my kids as grounded and godly husbands and fathers
- write a novel that people would pay to read
- write anything that people will pay to read
- get all my files in order
- convince my husband that it's okay to give or throw away the clutter: if we haven't used the crystal cognac glasses in 10 years, we probably don't need to keep all 12 of them....
- buy new underwear just in case I die while running errands
- to know uneqivocally my purpose in life and to have the courage to fulfill that purpose.
Things I can do:
- pray
- fall right back to sleep
- put off 'til tomorrow what I should do today
- make people feel welcome
- cook
- knit one, purl two
- sort of play the guitar.
Things I cannot do:
- sing in public
- order the salad instead of the fries
- understand why anyone would still display a "Howard Dean for President" bumper sticker
- believe how mean I was
- fathom the depth of God's grace on me.
Things that attract me to my husband:
- he's handsome, of course
- his intelligence
- his ability to make me laugh harder than I've ever laughed in my life
- his unconditional love
- the fact that he's the best father I've ever seen
- the fact that he's not ashamed to wear a blinking red beacon on his back if he's out walking after dark
- that he still says I'm beautiful even if I'm 50 lbs more the woman than he married.
Celebrity crushes:
- Only that guy that played Legolas in the Lord of the Rings. Too cute!
