Me: Hey, you know what I wanna do before I die?
Alex: Umm, catch up with my parents??
Me: (insert sarcastic laugh) ha.ha.ha.....
Me: No, be in the demolition derby and fly somewhere..
Alex: You've never flown anywhere?
Me: Well, yes and no, mom and dad got a plane for the day and we just flew around but I was too little to realize i was flying, i remember it, but didn't have any fears. I want to fly somewhere to overcome that fear of flying.
Then Alex goes on talking about how he wants to go gliding in a glider.. That I wont even bother with!
I hope to accomplish those goals in the next 2-5 years. I hope to get my sister and cousins together for the derby's, i know they would LOVE that! Even my mom would do it if she didn't have back problems, and I'm sure a few aunts would love to do it as well. We are all the crazy adventurous type of girls, except I've REALLY mellowed out after I've had kids, I'm kinda scared to do some stuff that I used to be able to do before kids, I think its the thought of a freak accident happening and leaving my kids behind, not worth it! However, the derby is still on my list!
Anyone have any 'crazy' goals set for themselves that you want to accomplish? Of course I have other goals but the 2 listed above are the most craziest goals I have. Yes, flying is in my "crazy" category, it scares me! Its the whole, not having any control of the airplane and being WAY up in the air and so on....

i can't really think of any crazy goals... but i do know it would take A LOT to get me in an airport with or without my kiddos. i don't like that feeling of being stuck with all those people on the plan and not knowing who they are or if they are crazy... same with a boat or a cruise. can't get me on one of those!! surely the fear or flying again will go away some day, when a good enough reason comes along - like adopting or something. :)
exactly! i don't think i was ever scared of planes before 9/11. My family just always chose to drive instead of flying..
I can't think of any. :S Not scared of flying, I wouldn't these days though too expensive. It'd be interesting to take a train somewhere...I guess. I think it'd be cool to run a marathon although I suck at running. My sister is not fast at all but just started running 5k's. It took lots of work, so maybe if I could discipline myself better I could accomplish it and run with her.Maybe that will be my crazy idea????????
