Question -- What fun thing have you always wanted to do?
(Must be COMPLETELY free of any difficult child connection or any worries.........just YOU?). What are your favorite fun memories or favorite fun things for the future?
Most of mine involve travel (Italy in April!). Yes! I'd love to go on Safari in Africa. I'd love to travel to Spain (Fly into Barcelona, trek down to Madrid, then Seville, then hop the ferry over to Tangier, Morocco -- yes, I've mapped this out....I have plans!).
On a smaller scale, I'd love to swim with dolphins (found that too pricey, but will bite the bullet on it one of these days!).
About 10 years ago, I knew I'd always wanted to have a giant whipped cream pie fight. Made it happen in 2004 and 2005! And I was 43-44, mind you! BIG FUN! I emailed everyone I knew, and turned out about 50 others I knew wanted to join in. YES! Found a park which ok'd it, and added giant water balloon fight afterward (a neighbor even rigged up a shower on the back of his pick-up truck for us to rinse off the goop -- which doesn't reeeeally rinse off for about 2 days! LOL!). I even brought some of the Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) clients I worked with in wheelchairs who wanted to come.......slathered 'em royally with whipped cream and they loved it! I'm tellin' ya, this even cost very little money, was easy to do, fun for all ages (we had ages ranging from 5-55) and even our dogs joined in. It was a highlight in my life I'll never forget. Cheap, easy, possibly never laughed so much in my life!
So, I've covered the expensive and complicated, to the cheap and easy. The fun stuff is all there for our taking!
If not now, then when?
