When you decide to take those hikes....let me know if you want a buddy!

Okay, I really like you answer to the last question. I admit there are several celebrities that I find interesting and attractive, but I'm not 14 either. I can cook, but I can't organize either. And I can't imagine being separated from my family in order to worship. Good entry.

Wow!
What energy you have .....hiking AND spending time with grandchildren 1-4 on your list.

Lucky you with five days off. My kids go to school on Monday and then have Tuesday and Wednesday off. The following week, they have Monday off for Columbus day and Thursday off for Yom Kippur. The teachers must go nuts with all the stops and starts.
Interesting lists. Where is the "Mountains-to-Sea Trail? If you moved to the Cinque Terre, you could accomplish two of those. I'll have to tuck this away somewhere if I ever feel like I have time to contemplate and for instrospection -- need to schedule some actually.
I'm with you on "7 things that I can't do..."
Gem :-)
I love your lists. Maybe if I made such lists I'd have more focus in my life.
My kids will miss school on Tuesday for the 1st day of Rosh Hashanah and then no school for dd on Friday--h.s. conferences. Neither child has school the following Monday--Professional Development Day. Both will miss that Wednesday for Yom Kippur. I still don't know why our district stays open for the holidays. Over 25% of the student body and close to 20% of the faculty is Jewish. Two 3-day weeks at the h.s. for dd--she's thrilled!
Great stuff!
