A Survey Wondercat Made Me Do

8 Things I'm Passionate About:
- raising my son to be independant, free-thinking, and loving (and every other virtuous trait you can think of)
- standing up for what is right and just, not what everyone else tells me is right and just
- cooking and baking. And eating.
- being honest... always. You never NEED to lie. As a result I don't usually tell all of my life's stories in fear that people will think I'm exaggerating!
- astronomy. I took many astronomy classes in college and seriously considered it for my major.
- being crafty! I like to scrapbook, paint, draw, knit, and just make things in general.
- not turning into my parents in raising my son
- being the best wife I can be, because my wonderful husband deserves absolutely no less of me than that.

7 Things I Want To Do Before I Die:
- climb the pyramids
- see all my grandchildren and at least some of my greatgrandchildren be born

- retire on beach and lounge around in the sun all day like a seal.
- lose weight... significantly BEFORE I die
- scuba dive
- does "discover the fountain of youth so I can NOT die" count?
