Life Lists
I really want to start blogging again, but I just don't have anything to say. So, I stealing this idea from my daughter and posting my own Life List (which sounds so much better than a bucket list!).
1. Go to Pearl Harbor and visit the USS Arizona Memorial and the punchbowl. I can come home after that a happy woman, but if I could see a little more of Hawaii I would be happy too.
2. Learn to tat. I have tried to teach myself, but there is a disconnect somewhere. I can tie a knot, but I can't make it slide. So, I need a teacher. Did I mention that tatting is a dying art form? There are no teachers in my world. I've even had to explain tatting to a few people.
3. Own - and drive - a 1971 Doge Charger. I think my son will eventually fix one up for me, but he'd better hurry! I may not be able to get out of a car like that much longer.
4. Be able to stay at home with my grandchildren all day - every day. I want to teach them to sew, to do decorative painting, crochet, hang drywall, change the oil in their car, and all the other cool stuff I can do.
5. Finish my family tree. This may be impossible. Just this week I took one line back to the 1300's (and found out I was a 2nd cousin 9x removed of George Washington). There always seems to be another branch to follow.
6. Finish my house. Before I die. I'd like to live there before I die too.
7. Create a stained glass window. To go in my house would be nice. But not necessary. I just want to create a window.
8. Drive a semi and a wrecker. Not far - just so I can say I did.
9. Build a pulling truck and a show truck (or car). Just so I can say I did.
10. Make quilts for all my children and grandchildren that they can hand down to their children and grandchildren along with a little family history. I also hope that one of them is interested in family history and the "treasures" we have.
So there, Jessi. Did any of these surprise you?

Jukebox Friday - Faith
I guess this was the beginning of Christian Rock.
Even nun's got in the spot light...
A very powerful song. Words and music by Johnny Cash.
My favorite of Johnny's gospel songs.

Jukebox Friday - Cher
No need to say anything else. She has been my favorite since day 1!
Not from the 70's, but oh, so Cher!
