Current mood:  <\/span>accomplished <\/p>\n

<\/FONT><\/FONT><\/FONT>As my birthday was approaching, I wasn’t certain if I would be able to take a trip for my birthday. With that thought in mind, I decided to create a wish list of experiences. The list was mostly old things that I had said I would like to do “someday”. My thought was that I would pick something simple off the list if I didn’t go anywhere and do that thing for my birthday. The easiest item was to go horseback riding. I’ve taken a couple of vacations and said that I would like to go horseback riding but didn’t do it for whatever reason (usually poor planning on my part). Fortunately, I was able to take a short trip for my birthday but decided to still mark one item as complete \u2013 the horseback riding. I can now say that I’ve experienced riding a horse other than being at the fair with the horse walking around in a tethered circle. It was a raging success because the horse never fell nor did I fall off the horse. I won’t mention that the horse never galloped…<\/p>\n

<\/FONT><\/FONT><\/FONT>Since I can now mark that item complete, I decided to think of other experiences that I’d like to mark as complete as well. Some are a little more ambitious because I don’t have a deadline associated with completion. Here are the results:<\/p>\n

\u2022 To experience sunrise and sunset off the New England Atlantic coast during fall with a fall foliage tour in between.<\/p>\n

\u2022 To have a private performance of Moonlight Sonata in a dark room with the actual moonlight streaming through the windows (and\/or candlelight for the pianist). A professional pianist is not required, just someone who can perform the music well.<\/p>\n

\u2022 To eat a truffle dish made with actual truffles.<\/p>\n

\u2022 To stand alone on a stage and sing a song to an audience.<\/p>\n

\u2022 To spend a day on the ocean, far away from land, on a boat of course \u2013 just not a dinghy.<\/p>\n

\u2022 To spend the night outdoors with the one I love, talking and looking at the stars (before I fall asleep).<\/p>\n

<\/FONT><\/FONT><\/FONT>Also, one of my accomplishments that I didn’t realize until a few weeks after the fact is that I’ve driven from the east coast to the west coast (Miami to Los Angeles). I didn’t do it at one time but I’ve done different legs over different periods of time resulting in my cross-country travel. With the exception of the leg from Miami to Atlanta, I’ve actually driven across the country within the first six months of this year \u2013 alone. Girl Power to the Max! <\/p>\n
