A bucket list. But who can suddenly dive into adventure when they are seriously sick?
I am lucky. I have lived a lucky life, and have done what I wanted to do. My choices have been nearly all good. My choice of husband was a major win.
I have enjoyed life. I am not claiming that I was especially privileged, but mostly, I have been lucky.
I have enjoyed a full 18 years of being a Grey Nomad and that is one of the most pleasurable things that one can do. I have enjoyed hobbies, from breeding budgies to painting pictures and even writing books. I have children and I have grandchildren, each of them special, each of them different.
I don't need a bucket list. I have filled my bucket.
So goodbye, friends, acquaintances, and even enemies, though I was never a sufficiently notable character to have any real enemies.
(But I would have liked to live long enough to see if Trumpy wins in 2024.)
