Thought provoking…

What would you do different if you knew today was your last day?  I hear about all this hype right now with “Judgement Day”, and personally think it’s a load of crap.  The book I read says we will not know the time or place.  And either way, the place that my family and I will be going is a MUCH better place 🙂

So, as I was wasting some time on twitter (because that’s what we do on twitter, right?), I came across a tweet from Babble.com (original tweet HERE).  I thought it was very thought provoking.  You can read the full article, but below I am going to copy a portion of it in case you don’t want to link over…

Now, I DON’T agree and/or think the end of the world will happen today, but I do think doing a few of the things on her list are awesome – nor do I necessarily agree with all the things listed, for example #16. 🙂

I will be doing some.  Thanks for sharing!!

1. Go see a landmark you’ve always wanted the family to see and just haven’t from Yellowstone to Disney World.

2. Go get a hot fudge sundae after dinner. Hell, have one after lunch and breakfast, too.

3. Let them eat a Big Mac, Whooper or a Double Double Animal Style – some fast food staple you’ve banned until now.

4. As a family, sit and sift through all your photo albums, reflect on the life you’ve all lived.

5. Go on a road trip. Take back roads and get totally lost.

6. Let the kids go to sleep when ever they want. Throw away your alarm clock while you are at it.

7. Drink all your best wine. Let your kids be your designated driver, so what if they don’t actually have a license.

8. Go visit grandma, grandpa or uncle George. Be nice. And bring that wine.

9. Eat whatever the kids want to for dinner or let them pick the restaurant. In other word, eat Mac & Cheese and dine at Chuck E. Cheese’s.

10. Play numerous rounds of Candyland, Connect Four, or Uno. Let them win.

11. Give in and let them listen to Kesha.

12. Throw away the chore list. See how messy and dirty you can make the house.

13. Take their home work and turn it into paper airplanes, see how far you can make them go.

14. Watch those family videos that you’ve probably never watched since you shot them.

15. Fly to a Paris, Egypt or Bali. Spend the end of days there .

16. Spongebob Squarepants marathon.

17. Call in sick to work and school. Actually, since the world is actually going to “end”, don’t call at all. No, “I think I have strep throat” excuses for you.

18. Take out a couple hundred bucks out of bank, hand it off to the kids and let them go crazy in your local candy store. Tell them they’ll never have to see a dentist ever again.

19. Get them a puppy.

20. Make Friday your own personal Halloween. Dress up the family in costume and go trick or treating.

21. Tell them all you love them.
