When I started this blog in 2006 my third entry contained the following information:

10 Things I Wanna Do Before I Die:

1. Learn to play the guitar
2. Sing one of my favorite songs (while playing
the guitar) in public.
3. Go to Disney World.
4. See the Grand Canyon.
5. Take the whole family on a white water rafting trip.
6. Take a vacation with my husband - just the two of us.
7. See my children happily married.
8. Get through my brick wall in my genealogy.
9. Find a sport that I love.
10. Go to Belgium and drink beer and eat chocolate.

Guess what I did today?

I took my first guitar lesson. Yup, this old lady is learning a new trick.

I am so excited. I know it is silly but for most of my life I have wanted to play for my own enjoyment. Funny thing is, my sweet husband is just as excited as I am.

He says he is waiting for me to serenade him.

Maybe by next valentine's day.
