I have watched “The Bucket List” over and over again for the better part of the month on HBO. I did not see it in the theater. I thought it would be too depressing. I must tell you – it is one of the best movies I have seen in a long time. Each time I see it, I see something that I missed before – and I have cried for different reasons each time. For those that have not seen it – I will not spoil it for you. I highly recommend it. The relationship that the main characters form – is a life lesson to be learned.
I think my favorite line is “I wish I had met you before we were dead.”
I just have some questions for each of you:
Do you have a Bucket List?
Would you care to share your Top Five things?
Would you want to know “how much time you have left”?
Have you found JOY in your life?
Has your life brought JOY to others?
I know that you all have brought joy to mine! Thank you.

Oh MEK, the boxer/shar pei puppies sound so cute. They get my vote. And you have brought me more joy than you know.
Zona, I would have come to help you dust! And you have brought me joy, too.
Carol, you have brought me joy with this blog and just being you.
I am still tired and the kitchen blueprint guy is coming to measure very early tomorrow, so I am going to bed early.
Good night Owls. Sweet dreams to you all. Love you all.
I agree NO DANCING!!!
CPGEM: I know..it would be a funny footnote though.. ;)

And if I were you, I would take the Hazel apron off, as Mr Z, but get the wrong idea.. ;o)
Goodnight Barb!
I am going to go and lie down. It will be interesting to see how I feel tomorrow.
Have fun everyone in all that you do!!!! Happy Travels!!!!!!!!!!!
Zona: I think Shirley would have a really hard time keeping up with the exclamation points!!
I will try my best to not "drunk blog" again. Sorry for that folks, I am normally very conservative!!

Nite!
Nite Carol...
Had fun tonight also...
sweet dreams!!
Zona Have a great Weekend.... and YES.. Pictures!!
No, I am not packed yet but in the process. I am worlds worst packer. I hate to do it and this time it is only for a few days. You guys should see me packing for a cruise.
ZONA: Save Bucket List for another day..we are going to be dancing and singing all weekend long! Be ready for my Over the Rainbow rendition.
MEK: Yes, I am coming a long way for Cardinals jersies. My three grandsons are so excited that I am going to be there and bring them back a shirt. I asked the girls and they wanted to know who the
Cardinals were and said maybe they would take a tank top to sleep in..guess they aren't quite the football fans. You would think they would be as they were on the Junior Bronco Cheerleader Squad for two years but didn't join in 2008.
ZONA: I have packed my white gloves...just to freak you out!
JODI AND GOLDIE: Have fun tomorrow and do a few more pictures. There is no doubt that we will have pictures...I am even bringing a camera so fluff your hair.
Guess I will get back to packing. Mr D had to bring a larger suitcase in for me.
EBJ: I will get back to you on the Mama's Boys..not now..packing (maybe).
How funny you are all telling ZONA no dancing and I am writing at the same time about her dancing.
Packing....
Thank you Carol- and Mek

I just finished reading all the comments and everyone has left!
I wanted to thank everyone for their congrats. on our anniversary.
We had a quiet dinner and met up with friends for drinks. I did sign up Mr Mary for another 30 lol!
I loved reading everyone's bucket lists today.
Diane, U R welcome to my # 1 & 4 !
SacBarb, you brought so much joy to Raquel & I when you taxied us around this summer. What would we have done without you?
Scirish, a friend of mine had the electrical pack inserted under her skin. It helped her a lot, but she was so skinny that the pack could not be left in.She has chronic pain.
Mr Mary had back surgery many years ago. It worked out great for him. Everyone is different. There are so many variables. It would do you well to get a 2nd opinion. A good Dr. would not object. Good luck to you. Back pain is the worst! From what I hear, migraines come in a close 2nd.
MEK, great blog! Hey, I would have loved to had a reunion! Any excuse to go somewhere warm! Give me a invite next time, who knows, I may show up lol!
I'm off to bed soon. I think Mr Mary is happily snoring! I may have to take a closer look at that contract lol!
Tina, that reunion post was meant for you too! I should have put you on top of my bucket list lol!
Okay.....Zona and I just got back from In-n-Out.....guess what my number was? yup....
69~
AND....the cute guy brought me my food.....I've NEVER had my food brought to me there before!!! :D
and then.....the girl called Zona's number and she had to get up! lol~
MEK Sweet dreams to you! Also, keep in mind that shar peis can have a lot of skin problems.
Tina When you got it, you got it! :)
omg J/L~ i thought you were talking about sharp penis' having skin problems!!!
oh....and honey...i got it! :)~
oh....Di....GET OFF THE PHONE AND FINISH PACKING!!!!!!!!!!!!~
Tina Sharp penis would be a whole other problem!
Dianne-still-packing-in-Denver You must pack the way I do------taking everything "just in case".
Better late than never??
MEK: Here goes!
Do you have a Bucket List?
Not until you made me think about it!
Would you care to share your Top Five things?
OK:
Understand electromagnetism
Write a book
Tour the military cemetaries in Europe
Experience a supernatural event
Live long enough to find out what dark energy and dark matter are, and how prevalent life is "out there"!
Would you want to know “how much time you have left”?
Yes. Then I could plan things better.
Have you found JOY in your life?
No. But I've found joy in some ways.
Has your life brought JOY to others?
Again, no. But maybe, again, a little joy here and there.
Bebbi: Congratulations! Yes, you Could!!!
okay old bear~ you bring joy to my life~ (and DeeDee's!) so there! :D
Mary: Happy Anniversary!
Bebbi~ I feel like I should get on a plane to ur house NOW to make sure you make it to the bathroom when you lose it tonight! :)~ Congrats on passing ur test~ Must feel great~
Thanks, Tina!!!! Love ya!
One person's top bucket wish makes me sad.
Joey's list made me smile!
... and Zona: I'm watching you! LOL!
Tina: I bring joy to Delores's life???? OMG... don't tell Tinkatia!
lol bear~ remember when she got excited and told you that you should go see NASA the next time you went to Texas? I'll never forget that, cuz i LMAO!!! It was the cutest thing ever cuz we already knew you worked there!
....and I won't tell Tink~ :)~

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh~
Tina Congrats! Did you get the Trifecta today?
Bear Hello!
I'm signing out now. Have a nice night and sweet dreams.
SacBarb....Congrats on the new kitchen...but a word of warning! My Mom had her cabinets refaced and it looked great at first. But after a while the facing start coming undone at the corners of cabinets and the tops of the drawers. Not sure this is normal or if it was just a crappy job, but if the wood is in good shape maybe refinishing would be a consideration?
Thanks everyone for all the comments and good wishes for my back dilemma..
Bebbi...Hope you don't have a hangover...you are a cute drunken blogger!
Hope all the traveling/meeting owls have a fantastic time!
I'm off to get assembled....have to take Mom to the Doctor this morning.
I am really glad I came back here and read all this. Thanks for the offer to come and tuck me in, how sweet. And, I never thought I would blog drunk..now I can hang with the "big boys"...huh, Whabby...LOL ;)
275 just because.
