Someday...

You know how Someday always felt so far off in the future?

Someday we will go to....Someday I want to...Someday I hope we can...

And then one day you realize that now might actually be your Someday.

And that Someday isn't going to last forever.

The other day I was driving through the country and slowed down to look at this house I always

 notice every time I go this way. And I always say to myself, in my head; 

"Someday I am going to have a big old farmhouse out in the country like that....."

It's not even that this house is my dream house or anything, it's not.

But it's more of the location; being in the country while being close to a bigger town that I like.
It's just the idea that this house represents for me I guess.

I imagine us in a big farmhouse with a huge vegetable garden and a flower garden and a little creek.

There would be a lot of old trees-one with a tire swing and one with a tree house for the kids.

We would have a big fire pit and an outdoor brick oven and plenty of room for all of

 our friends to come and camp out in their tents overnight.

Of course we would have chickens because I already fantasize daily about having our own fresh eggs.

This is just one of my Someday's.

I have more. Lots more.
There's the Someday where I am able to make a living doing something creative that I
absolutely love, whatever that may be.
There is the Someday where I open up a donut/coffee shop in a cool old building.
Oh, it would be the cutest shop decorated in all it's vintage finest, just so ya know.
There is the Someday where I publish a book full of all of the old barns I have photographed.
The Someday where I do more with my photography.
The Someday where we adopt a baby, maybe from another country, maybe from this country.
And then the Someday where my little family travels around the world, visiting new places, learning more then we ever knew we could and making memories to last a lifetime.
Those are just a few of my Someday's.

What is on your  Someday list?

What brought on all this thinking today, you ask?
Well, the last few weeks I have been doing lots of thinking.
Thinking about life and choices and responsibility and anxiety and happiness and...yeah, all of it.
And this week we got some news about a family member, and it wasn't good news.
We are hopeful but it is yet another reminder that you never know how long you have here
on this little place we call earth. We really don't.
So I am thinking about all of my Someday's and dreaming and planning because
I  know we only get one chance to live this life and Someday might just be today.

Two more days of school, the countdown is on and all the little last minute things that need to be done-like baking muffins for the teachers and getting Wyatt's teacher a gift.
Wow. Two days!
Happy Wednesday, y'all!  {Remember, no H-word allowed here}
