Before I die I want to …
- parasail off of Rainbow Bridge
- live on every continent (except Antarctica)
- fall in love again
- take all my kids and their spouses to Italy
- bike from the east to the west coast
- write the books in my head
- visit a supercollider
- learn Italian and remember French
- build my own home
- retire, so I can get more work done
- live in a house without one white wall
- own a red velvet gown
- overcome my fear of heights
- quit blushing
- be requested as a welfare consultant by a head of state
- spend a week in the Smithsonian
- have an afternoon to chat with Stephen Hawking
- be my children’s best friend, my grandchildren’s favorite toy
- overcome my fear of open water and sea animals
- read the top 100 literary works in a garden hammock
- be an angel investor
What’s on your list?

A week at the Smithsonian? Cool. I grew up a half hour away from it and never really appreciated it. Sad, huh?

* Be in the temple with each of my children.
* Make my home a place of refuge and peace.
* Be a soft place for others to fall, always sending value, never judging.
That’s really it. I do not want to travel or have adventures. I love where I am and what I do.
So you go have your adventures and I will wait right here for you. And when you return, you can tell me of your adventures. And I will watch your face light up. And that’s where I will find my joy — in yours.

I just spent a week and a half at the Smithsonian. You will need at least that long. Honestly though, there were some things that weren’t worth the time, like the Natural history museum’s shrine to Darwin. (Actually, I think the whole place is more like a temple to Darwin and Darwinism).

I want one white wall. Just one. A big empty one. For photography. And a black wall. I already have a grey one.
Please don’t quit blushing.

Chad and I are working on going to 101 temples. We are at 17.
Run a marathon.
Become a teacher and change a child’s life.
I like the no white walls. I think I will start working on that one. I’m with Luann, don’t quit blushing.

Why Italy?

I LOVE Italy, Katy! The pace is different there, the history, the ocean from that side … and I want my children to have a chance to see a different life, for just a bit.
