Eric, I'll have to think about some of the stuff you mentioned to be able to come up with a well thought out response. As for the 5 things I want to do with my life.
1. I'd like to write a book. this whole thing has prompted me to really think about this and how to go about it in a realistic way.
2. Be a grandma--and I have 3 grandkids and one on the way, so that has been very fulfilling.
3. Have a wonderful marriage and a partner who is as honored to be on this journey with me as I am with him. Have great relationships with my kids and close friends. Relationships are very important to me. I put alot of work into them.
4. Own a lakeshore lot so I could dangle my feet in the water from the dock and watch the stars-listen to the loons. That might be what I think of when I see the word peace..you asked about that.
5. I would like to go to Ireland to visit the birthplace of my ancestors. I'm working on that and will do it before I die.
6. Be happy, content and healthy.
