So lately I have been pondering our mortality. Why, who knows.... or could it be that ~ the world is rocking, well kind of trembling beneath my feet these days.
We went out to dinner tonight with Tracy and Kosti and Kosti's Russian friend ~ Ksenia. She is beautiful and oh so sweet! Love her!! I like Russians. And sorry Kosti~mosti, she is taller than you ~ and you do look like brother and sister.
Well we are going to have to skip a bedtime story tonight. Late night and if I start editing now, it's going to be 3am before I go to sleep and I can not do that!
Sadie is already snuggled up next to me, waiting for Popi to join us. So let's do a short and sweet ~ what has been on my mind post. As I mentioned already lately I have been conscience of mine, Popi's and Sadie's mortality. I have even started counting the days (Sadie has bad gas tonight and I'm not sure how long she is going to last in the room here ~ it is BAD! sorry I digress can not help it, it's smelling like the Drive through volcano / sulfa mine of St. Lucia! BAD).
Counting the days, counting the days. What days? you ask....
I counted, I have been alive exactly 19,400 days. Wow and exactly what have I accomplished? I am living to a little beyond my 100th birthday (somethings I know).
So this means that I only have 20,819 days left.... with so little time, makes me not want to waste a minute! Have to start planning a few things... like working on my "bucket list".
One ~ okay I know 2 things on it, first hanging out with 2 Russian's reminded me I want to visit Russia in the summer. I like Russians!
I also want to visit Alaska. That has always been on my list. Return to Florence,Italy that goes without saying.
I also want to learn and be fluent in Spanish.
I want to have a home with a pool that I can swim in everyday.
I would like to meet and spend some time talking to Colin Powell. (he's my if you could have lunch with anyone dead or alive ~ who would it be?)
hmmm, I know there is more.... but I'm tired and that's all I can handle tonight.
Okay I will make a better organized list tomorrow. Now, Sadie is snoring, time for me to go to sleep as well.
