i like your list. i should be more open to things. i realize i say no automatically a lot of the time.
i have a bunch on my list. to name a few:
learn how to play the piano
travel to new zealand, europe, and maybe north africa
get certified in pilates
get a masters degree...
it goes on longer, but there's some good ones.
You're right! I'm always saying, "No, we can't afford it, No, we don't have time, No, I just don't think I can..." etc. And while I think it prudent to live within the means, here are some on my list!
Become a SCUBA instructor
Take Cake decorating
Travel to Switzerland...well, Europe.
Buy a Bike (to go with the kiddie trailer Grandpa bought us!)
Buy a piano
Learn to Sail
Join a Volleyball league
plant a garden with lots of fun exotic-ish flowers
