My Bucket List

After whining and crying about what cancer and chemotherapy have made me, I decided that it was time for me to figure out what and who I will be when it is over.  I have never really thought about having  a bucket list....so...I think the time is now - to set some goals for my future....and I will blog about each one as I accomplish them. I will add to the list as the days progress....it's time to live life and stop just existing.....It's called "redefining the dash"



1.  Make a trip to Galveston. Sit on the beach and marvel at the beauty of God's Creation. Take lots of photos, and have lunch on the strand.  I've done this a million times before - but this time,  I will see it through different eyes.
