As I am beginning to feel better, my thoughts are filled with ways to enjoy life. A year ago, I didn't know if I'd see another spring. I want to seize the day and enjoy the life God has blessed me with.
~smile~
My Bucket Lists help me to focus on the things that I want to do that aren't part of my daily routine. I know I won't do it all, but it gives me ideas when I have a bit of time. They also remind me to have a little fun and enjoy the season!
Here's my Spring Bucket List 2018.

Real Estate Investing (Decluttering)
Go to a few yard sales~smile~ I'm looking for candles (love them) and a medium size glass mixing bowl. I used to give each child a dollar, and you'd be surprised how much they could get for a dollar. The youngest wanted hers in nickles! This is mostly something to do with the kids. I don't buy much

I may add or subtract as I go, but it's a start! My bucket lists inspire me and help me to enjoy life and get things done. I hope this list will inspire you to make your own list! I know some items will be passed on to my summer bucket list, but it is motivating!
What will you put on your bucket list?
Be blessed!
