My Bucket List
1. Visit London! I don’t know why but ever since I was a little girl I’ve wanted to go there.
2. Stay at The Broadmoor Hotel in Colorado Springs, Co. Growing up my parents worked there and it was like my own personal play ground (yes, I ran around a five star hotel like I owned the place) I’ve never actually stayed there though.
3. Go skydiving!
4. Ride along in a Jet with The Blue Angels.
5. Take car racing lessons at the Texas Motor Speedway. I’d also like to learn how to drift.
6. Buy a Big ol’ RV so that the hubby and I can take the kids on a super tour like to the East Coast and see them learn the history of our great country.
7. Spend a Christmas in Vail with my whole family.
8. Be able to see all my children graduate from college. I started but didn’t finish and it’s always pleasing when your kids reach higher than you did!
9. Buy my dream car, a 1965 Mustang.
10. Have a maid. Yup, I hate house work and I would be creating a job for someone and my kids would insure her or him job security. 
11. Go snow skiing! I lived in Colorado many years and never went.
12. Be able to keep a diary. Yes, a “just do it” thing but I’ve tried and haven’t been very good at it. I would like to do one that I could leave to my kids.
13. Buy a home on land with a “party barn” so that when all six of my children are grown, I can have them, their spouses and my grandchildren over to have great times. Barn would be complete with stage, dance floor, lots of tables and a commercial kitchen.
14. Like to become a financially successful writer so that I could easily afford the above mentioned things.
15. Help needy families without them ever knowing it was me. You know like just walk in the water department and pay the bill for a year anonymously.
I wrote this for a contest but decided to leave it on so I could come back every now and then and see if I get to accomplish any of this stuff.
Where’s The Jewelry?
If you are a regular visitor to Trinkies.com then you are probably wondering, where are all of the cell phone charms and jewelry?
Well, I started Trinkies in 2005 and I loved doing it but last year I started a new adventure, blogging! After finding my passion there and after much deliberation, I decided to sell out most of my jewelry stock and give up the online store. Over the years though, friends and online acquaintances started calling me Trinkies so, while I was ok with leaving the online jewelry business, I just couldn’t give up my acquired nickname.
The header of this blog says, “whatever goes…” That’s what this blog will be about any subject that moves me to write about it, at any given day or time. Just something fun for me that I hope others will enjoy as well.
As mentioned above, I sold out “most” of my jewelry stock. I have some remaining so be sure to subscribe to this blog (in the upper right hand corner) for some jewelry giveaways!
As most of you know my old logo had a butterfly on it so I’ll leave you today with this quote…
If nothing ever changed, there would be no butterflies.
