Swirly’s Six
Things I Want To Do Before Dying


1 Watch my hubby wrestle. He really wants to wrestle, if only on the independent circuit. I want to be there to see him do it, win or not.


2 Kiss my children’s foreheads. I want to be a mom and get to at least see their beautiful eyes and kiss them. I think this will be my life’s highest peak – to love and lovingly raise our children.


3 Get my degree. I have always wanted to be the first in my family to go to college. I want to set a good example for my kids and to have the satisfaction of saying, “I did it”.


4 Fill up one of my hardback journals. Something for people to read and laugh about after I am gone. Two hundred pages of memories and insight. What a fun thing to look through, huh?


5 Try pottery. I have always wanted to do it and I think I will really, really enjoy it.


6 Establish a college scholarship in my great-grandmother’s name. I wanted to do this since I was in elementary school. I loved her so much and thought she was so spunky and strong. I want to help instill the confidence of a good education in other women. And if they are getting their degree in art, well hey … I’d love it even more.
