We have all heard of a bucket list, right? It’s the list of things you want to do before you “kick the bucket”. But what about a Living Life list? I have a reasonable chance of not dying anytime soon so I thought I would focus not on what I would have missed out on if I died soon but on what I can experience while I am alive and kicking!!!

Having said that, I have found a fun website called bucketlist.org which has some wonderful ideas! Check it out here!

I figure I need to keep focused on what I am gaining in lifestyle and how I am feeling physically rather than on how much weight I have lost or what I can’t eat if I am going to meet my goals. So below is a list of things I would (will) do if (when) my fitness and self-consciousness were not (are no longer) an issue.

This list may evolve, so stay tuned.

I would love to hear your “Living Life” suggestions! I hope to journal each of the experiences as I complete them.

LIVING LIFE CHALLENGE (in no particular order)

1. Take the family to wet’n'wild and enjoy all the rides with my kids!
2. Rock climbing – with Karlee followed by a massage
3. Swim in the parent/teacher race at the kids school swimming carnival
4. Run in a fun run (10 or 12km). Bridge to Brisbane and Gold Coast Marathon, 2012.
5. Go bike riding with my children and keep up!
6. Swimming in the ocean (haven’t been in for years due to embarrassment of body).
7. Bush Dance – call me crazy but I think it’s fun, the whole “Bow to your partner!”
8. Go surfing
9. Hike – yet to decide where and how far
10. Water skiing (I’d love snow skiing too, but bit too far away at this time).
11. aerobics
12. Dancing. I am coordinated enough for someone to teach me something hip and fun!
13. Zumba
