What's prevented you from doing it?

I've always wanted to take voice/singing lessons. Time and money have stood in the way, maybe someday still.

I always wanted to explore the country in an RV, take all the little back roads, stop when something looked interesting no schedule, no have to be anywhere at anytime. I have been all over the country but always in a hurry to get to a certain place. What has stopped me has been money and someone to share it with me.
Saphire,,, do it, it will be the single most rewarding experience in your life.

This is really weird I asked this same question in Seniors about a day ago!! And there are people hear who answered differently. I think I will too!! : )
Typical and me have Fibro in common and I understand what she is up against. I too love to paint on canvas with acrylics and I found a cheap class at the public library for adults. I bought small tubes to start with in white, black, red, blue and yellow as you can make a lot of colors from those, and slowly watch for sales and added to it. My Art teacher was self taught and she is 84 and has just received the Life Time Achievement Award for her Art. She is an amazing woman that I love dearly who also has Fibro. She says I am the daughter she always wanted. But I have not been to class in a couple of years due to health mainly and other things taking priority so that is what I look forward to doing!!
I have for a while now wanted to go to Las Vegas and I will because I saw a special where a woman from Europe said that a lot of the hotel themes of Europe were just like being there only cleaner! So I want to go just to experience, Venice,
and paris, and Rome, and New York as I may never get to go to all these places. Where there is a Will there is a way and I would be Happy to Take You with me Dee!

well, I've been to Las Vegas, and once was enough for me tho I have been three times, and once to Reno. It was fun, but some things I only need to do once!
There are several things I always wanted to do, but money and time constraints kept me from it. I have always wanted to take a balloon ride (the champagne flight at sunset, preferably); hike the Grand Canyon; hang glide; sail on a schooner; and now, I really want to take a glass bead making class. Sometime in the next 5 years or so I plan to do at least some of these things. Don't know about the hang gliding, but all of the others!

You can do voice/singing for free at a local church--a lot of the other singers will coach you, if not the leader. I've always wanted to go on some kind of cruise, maybe QM II, but I'm a bit poor. Love the ocean, though, and don't get seasick.

I have always wanted to be the grand prize winner in a multimillion dollar lottery.
The long odds have prevented me from doing so. lol Plus I only play a buck once in a while.
Also, write a book. Never made the time, which I believe would be considerable. I waste too much time here in Yahoo Answers

Coming from a show business family I always wanted to sing torch songs on stage ala Peggy Lee. Shyness and time have prevented me but I still think of what might have been.

Always wanted to sail around the world with a small group of my friend. Only two problems with that scenario. No one I know owns a large enough yacht and no one I know has the funds required to make it work. Oh well maybe Bill Gates will read this and let me borrow his partner's yacht for a year? I know, fat chance, but hey, stranger things have happened in the world. I mean look at Microsoft. They started on a shoestring. No look at them!

I actually started making a list of 100 things that I wanted to do. Only got to about 20. Actually did one-go on a cruise.
Reasons I haven't done them Money, health, procrastination.

Make love to Julia Roberts and Demi Moore at the same time. Drew Berrymore would work too. If a fella is going to dream, might as well go for big!

I have always wanted to be a foster mom. Having a home and the money is what has held me back. Once I get that, then I have to take the classes, no big deal there.
