It’s the only thing I can think of, starting with the letter J. Oh, sure – there’s “jump out of a perfectly good airplane” or “jump from a bridge, into an icy river.” If I liked that feeling of freefall more, maybe. But no. Spend a night in “jail”? Three hots and a cot and a girlfriend named Bertha? No, I think not. “Jousting,” anyone? (That might actually go on the bottom of the list, but I’d probably duck out at the last minute.) Make homemade “jam”? Nah. All thoughts lead back to the man I married, 31 years ago. It was the smartest decision I’ve ever made in my life. Keeping him in my life, to my dying breath – that’s #1 on my bucket list.

Good idea. Keep him close as long as possible. The years fly past too fast.
Indeed they do, Vivian.

Best bucket list item of all! 😀 Congratulations to you and JJ, Holly. It’ll be 42 years for us this year. Doesn’t seem like it!

A good man is hard to find. And I’ll just leave it at that.
Yes. And good idea. 🙂
Fantastic goal!
AWW!
My husband is John and we are in our 42nd year. The best decision I ever made.
Thanks for your comments on my blog!!
My own J..John..and I have been married for 42 years. Best J of all.
Thanks for your comments on my blog!
42 doesn’t seem so far away! Funny how, when you first get married, that seems like this HUGE milestone (OMG, surely we’ll die before we get there…are we there YET? LOL) and it just passes in the blink of an eye.
And thank YOU for your comments, too, Susan!

I consider myself a tough woman but I wouldn’t last 5 minutes in jail. No jousting for me, I’ve never been on a horse. Base jumping off a bridge might be fun.
Growing old with someone is at the top of my bucket list for sure. You and JJ are really sweet. 🙂

Hahaha…I think I’d rather spend an hour in jail than go base jumping! And I’ve been on a horse – even learned to ride a (well-trained) horse using only my knees to control it in the ring. Which is probably important if you’re jousting.
