10 things I’ve never done

A cool meme found over at The Journey.

1. Borrowing from Kyla – I’ve also never lived alone. Yes, I have been the only *adult* but in 45 years I have never lived entirely alone.
2. I’ve never seen the movie Titanic
3. Also borrowing from Kyla when it comes to missing out on huge current popular things – I’ve never read the Twilight series or seen one of the movies.
4. I’ve never owned an iron or ironing board (much to the chagrin of my oldest son who bought one for himself finally but I have not touched it!)
5. I’ve never read a Judy Blume book – particularly the book it seems *every* girl read on the cusp of puberty: Are you there God? It’s me, Margaret
6. I’ve never cooked a turkey
7. I’ve never been to the Grand Canyon – I consider this an item worth listing given that I’ve always lived in So Cal & it’s totally drivable & I have no idea why we’ve never done it & it seems quite a shame – Bucket List!
8. I’ve never owned a full set of matching dinner ware or, quite frankly, any full room of matching new furniture.
9. I’ve never flown First Class (I know that’s maybe not all that rare, but given my age & how much I’ve flown & how often I’ve heard of my friend’s getting upgraded…I’m kind of irritated about this!)
10. I’ve never had to quit a job, or been fired. I had two part time summer jobs which had specific dates of hire & termination built into the job and after those I started working where I am right now.

This was a LOT harder than I thought it would be! Now, I have to admit there were a few things I thought I could list, but then I’d kind of have to wince at remembering that, no..yep, I did do that once much to my chagrin! OTOH, some things that I thought of I was happy to remember that, yes, I HAD tried/done/been there at least once!
