**** Thursday Thirteen # 9 ****

Thirteen Things Suz Would Like or Have Always Wanted To Do



1. Would like to lose atleast 67 pounds, yes you read that right. Weight has always been a problem with me that started in my teens. I know its possible ( have lost 75 pounds about 14 years ago) though also know as you get older it gets harder to lose. (Working on this now)

2. Live in a logcabin style house, not to big, 2 bedrooms upstairs and 2 bedrooms on main floor. Full finished basement and rap around porch outside. This is my dream house, nothing to fancy, just simple.

3. Get a tattoo of a crescent moon rapped around a sun. This I have wanted since my early 30's but never had the guts to do it and don't know if I ever will.

4. Take a dream trip to Australia. I have always wanted to go to Sidney and Melbourne and maybe even the wilder parts. If this happened it probably wouldn't be until the kids are grown and hubby retires.

5. Hawaii and Paris are other places I have always wanted to go but probably wont happen until later on in life if at all.

6. To visit all 50 states. This is something hubby sees us doing in a fully loaded mobile home. I think it would be neat to see the interesting places that each of "our" states have.

7. Skydive, This I have wanted to do since I was in my 20's but never had the guts to do and probably will never have the guts to do, lol!

8. Do the 3 day breast cancer walk. This I would probably do if I could find someone to do it with me. Its something that is close to my heart for a while now. A close friend lost her battle.

9. Learn how to crochet something else besides blankets. This I can definitely do just have to take the time to learn the stitches.

10. Learn how to ride a motorcycle. I have been on the back of plenty of time, love the feeling of riding on one but have never actually driven one. Maybe someday.

11. Own a black Pug. I have always liked this breed of dog but never had one and it doesn't look like its going to happen anytime soon because we already have 2 rescure dogs Jesse (MinPin) and Katie (Beagle).

12. You will probably think Iam crazy, but I have always wanted to visit a real haunted house. I have always believed in spirits and have to say, have had some strange experiences in my life. I know for one that my grandmother is around me constantly. Other things have also happened to me that were unexplained.

13. Get out of debt. For reasons I wont get into right now, this one can definitely happen but it probably wont for a few years.

I hear you on the losing weight battle! I think as we get older we get more nervous about doing certain things, I always wanted to bungee jump and now I don't think I ever would!!

Mines up! Isn't it interesting to think of the things you've always wanted to do? I was doing that the other day and thought, wait, why don't I just DO one of them? So I got our vacation booked.

I've never owned a black pug but I've known a few and they're tons of fun. Very sweet dogs.

As far as the tattoo thing goes, just do it. For years I listened to people tell me I wasn't a tattoo type guy. Then about 2 years ago I just did it.

My 13 are up.

Hi, Suz! Just reading through your list. Good one--though losing 67 pounds sounds crazy!!! Personally, I think you look great in the pics you've posted! I tried to post my Thursday Thirteen earlier and it said blogger was unavailable. I'm going to try again tonight when I get home from class.

Fun list. I need to lose weight, too. It's kinda hard sitting around doing nothing but eating. Do you think that's my problem? ;)

A real haunted house... just thinking about it makes my hair stand straight up. Good luck with that!

My 13 are up!

Great list!!! I'm late getting around- been gone all day, and have to head out again later, ugh! LOL We have so much in common- wow! :) As for bungee jumping.. I'd only do it if someone pushed me. Then I'd be in jail for murder.. so.. ;)

i love your list suz! definitely want to go to australia, paris and yes..hawaii!!!
but I guess I will let you go to haunted house though, I am a chicken in that part of the world ! ha.ha..ha..!!!
You can do it...losing weight is not something that will happen overnight but if you have enough will, you can do it!!! =)

With ya on the weight loss thing. sigh.

I also want to do the 3 day breast cancer walk. Too bad we did not live closer =(

 
At 12:10 AM, Blogger Shelli said...

We have some of the same things on our life to do list!

Thanks for coming by my 13 today!

Good luck on losing weight! it's a hard task but it's worth it. A logcabin style house sounds wonderful to me. But I am not sure about the haunted house! My TT is up, thanks for visiting :¬)

 
At 9:21 AM, Blogger Anne said...

i love it! And I too would like to visit all 50 states. I think that is jsut such a cool thing to be able to admit you've done.

 
At 10:50 AM, Blogger Katherine said...

Hey, I want to go to Australia too! I also totally believe in spirits and our loved ones visiting us after their deaths. I refuse to believe everything just ends and that's it. Good luck with your list!

I just joined Calorieking.com on Monday and I'm already down 3.5 lbs. It makes a huge difference when you log in everything you eat.
