lists and wishes

my list of wishes that are going to unfold:

to visit animal sanctuaries and help care for the animals.

to be open to learning, creating, and loving in all their many forms.

to adopt a couple of rescue pigs and take care of them in our home (if they're smaller) or in our yard (if they're gigantic).

to adopt some additional animals...dogs, hens, whatever else may need a home at the time.

to live on a good-sized space of land (for all the animals to roam freely in nature) in a small-sized home (cozy and quaint, solar and/or wind powered, minimally furnished, with open space to play.... i've been creating a design for it and changing it a bit with new ideas) with a garden (like we have now: enough to feed our bellies, with some to share with others), and good friends nearby to share tea and conversation and laughter.

to become certified as a psychiatric nurse and/or holistic nurse

to travel with josh to planned (east and west coast of canada, japan, india, new zealand, italy, st. john's island...) and unplanned places and appreciate relationships everywhere.

ooooo, i can't wait for our pooches to make friends with some pigs!

the list may grow or change with time. that's one of the surprises of life!
