The Dreamy To Do List
This is not a bucket list. I don’t like to think of my dreams as things that I want to do before I die, even though they are. That’s just stating the morbidly obvious. I prefer to think of them as lovely aspirations that I will indulge in one of these days, hopefully sooner rather than later. One of my daughters’ wonderful babysitters, a young actress who is as pretty on the inside as she is on the out, reminded me of this brilliant thing called a dream board. I’d never made one, though I’d heard people say they are a mysterious and effective way to bring your dreams to life. So, forthwith, the first few entries on my digital dream board…
Riding Arabian Horses Across the Bedouin Desert; or Andalusians through Spain; or whatever kind of horse they ride across polo fields in Argentina… you get the picture.

My actual board in progress; needs a little work…
What's on your dreamy to-do list?
