Lists


I will be 50 soon and I do not have philosophical thoughts and pseudo misplaced quotes in PowerPoint.

I do want to make a list because I am obsessed with lists.  So here are some things I want to do after 50.  Completing them before I reach 50 is clearly unrealistic.

1         Bake and decorate an elaborate cake

2         Bake and only eat my own bread (the first one yes and the second bit unrealistic!)

3         Cook kare kare without the help of Rita.

4         Grow a garden/develop a garden? I mean I should grow plants flowers tree or a bush whatever.

5         Read War and Peace

6         Read all the books of a favourite author.(not using my Kindle but the hard copy)

7         Drive to work and back home on my own.

8         Park car confidently.(after doing number 7)

9         Learn how to swim (my float does not count)

10     Run a marathon (what Da!)

11     Not to wear jeans/trousers for a month (dresses are straightforward no fuss no hassle)

12     Visit London and be a tourist for the weekend.

13     Complete the cross stitch I have started in 1999.

14     Get a Masters and a PhD Degree (NO B****Y WAY)

 
I will try to give you updates but do not hold your breath.
