The 2007 movie with Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman probably made me aware that I was living on the BACK NINE of my actuarial chart. Somewhere in my notes I actually compiled my own list. It would be interesting to revisit it. I do remember having these: visit Israel, China, Africa and South America on the list as places I wanted to experience. Say goodbye Africa and South America. Flying a glider was on there, as was winning Broncos Super Bowl✅✅!!! I have created in the past seven week a list of things I Do Not Want to do. Here they
are:
Sky dive
Take a learn to draw class
Own a restaurant
Be in a Control Group for a Covid 19 treatment
Coach Pee Wee anything
Learn a new language
Foster anything
Buy a pet monkey
Do a Senior Triathlon
Ever live in a care center
Take an around the world cruise… or any cruise for that matter
Learn Ball Room dancing
Drink Bleach
Do a cartwheel (never could anyway)
Practice Scientology
Run with the Bulls
Break 90 in Golf
Be George Clooney’s stunt double
Own a 3/4 ton pickup
Take an RV trip anywhere
Retire
Move
Attend The Kentucky Derby, Indy 500 or Mardi Gras
Ride an E-scooter
I will be adding to my list I am sure. Feel free to share the things you no longer want to experience.
