Awards and things to do in this lifetime

Rebecca of Daydreams in lace has given me the really cute Sugar Doll award, thanks so much, I feel so fab and honoured! I'm supposed to tell you 10 things about myself, but I thought I'd tweak it a little and tell you about 10 things I want to do in this lifetime instead.

They are:

1. Go on a hot air balloon ride.2. Go on an African safari.

3. Spend a few nights at the Giraffe manor.

4. Become a mom.

5. Buy a huge piece of land in the countryside and adopt unwanted dogs and other animals.

6. Have my own kitchen garden.

7. Learn to make soap.

8. Take a year off and travel around Australia.

9. Learn to sew my own dresses.

10. Sleep under the stars at Longitude 131°, Uluru.

I'm passing the award along to:

Why thank you.
I can recommend the hot air balloon ride. So quiet.
An African safari would be wild - in so many ways, and that Giraffe Manor, wow.
I am a mum. Not sure whether that's a recommendation.
I have lived in the country and I walk dogs with my Girl Guide unit at the local animal shelter. That must count.
I have a kitchen garden. Way too many carrots at the moment.
I've lived in three Aussie states. Is that enough? But yes, I'd like to travel Oz.
I can sew.
I can't afford Longitude 131 but I have walked around Uluru and done the sunset dinner.
I love the idea of listing things we want to do. I am in.

janis said...

that giraffe manor is off the hook! crazy!!

my little brother has been obsessed with dogs since a very young age. when he was like five, he would talk about opening up his house to unwanted dogs - "like dogs with three legs. no one wants dogs with three legs".

Emily Cato said...
