7 things I'd like to do before I die:

1. See the glory of God change my city so that I really live in Pleasant Hill.
2. Be debt free.
3. See all my children loving and serving the Lord.
4. Travel, travel, travel (I particularly want to see Scotland, Ireland, Venice, Austria, Spain and Italy)
5. Make a REALLY fabulous quilt - one that might actually win a prize for something because it's just that good.
6. Hear my husband singing on the radio off of one of his many fabulous CDs.
7. Have 9 hours of sleep in a row.

7 things I can't do:

1. Stand on my head.
2. Crochet anything other than one long string.
3. Do anything remotely attractive with clay.
4. Say no to a bag of chips (okay once in a while I can do it but not often)
5. See in my head what a pattern will look like with a different piece of cloth than what's on the cover of the envelope.
6. Estimate the size of a crowd.
7. Decorate cakes.
