Lol for one,I would never like to knowthat,but say I know the date,hmmm,I think I'd try to make as much peace as possible,and I think I would get one of the chitties drunk eeevvver lol,that may actually kill me before the real date lol!!

.. yes getting drunk would be a priority...lol.. although at my age.. getting drunk for a night.. really really drunk..lol.. would mean spending three days, on the couch recovering from the hangover...lol..
.. so I don't know if I'd really get drunk then..... can do a lot with 3 days.... perhaps I could use them to drive to a Coast somewhere...... the West Coast Vancouver...... dipped my toes in the ocean for one last time..... ..... spend the day in the Rocky Mountains... just watching the clouds drift over the peaks.....mmm.. |

Always said I would never want to know.. But the older I'm and my kids are grown with now grand kids.. I would like to know..
As far as what would change? It would all depend on how long I had . I always tell my family I love them and get to be around them since we live pretty close to each other.. I enjoy time with friends and we always have the hug session when we get together and leave.. If I had less then 5 years I would take the first year and make even more time for friends and family.. Then I would sell my house put a shed on one of my kids property to store the things I will want to keep... Buy a trike and hit the road for a couple of years.... Then come back spending time with my grand kids telling them of my adventures and letting them live my trip with me, through pictures... So really the only thing that would change for me is selling my house & traveling more... |

I would try to travel to everyplace I could get to...admire all of its scenic value...visit elderly people who are lonely write down their most cherished memory,.pick a pretty flower every whereI went...press it in a book along with a brief sediment of a past experience that made me smile...take selfies of myself standing next to strange landmarks...pick up a souvenir from everyplace I went...put them in a treasure box for my kids and grand kids to open every Christmas Eve...as long as they could...and on my last day would think about telling everyone what I really wanted to but more than likely would sit somewhere and quietly watch the sun rise or set..remembering what a beautiful life I had lived...

.. its funny we all know the end is coming eventually...
.. but yet how many of us truly live our life to the fullest.... .. reality is you still have to deal with the day to day..... but even in that... ... there is joy to be found... ... and "watersign' how do you mix those two ladies up....lol.. granted they are both beautiful... but txs Gal.. always uses a purple ink.. in her post.. .... and by the way..txs Gal... I would sell my belongings as well... And travel this big blue marble..... ....hmm..ok.. on second thought maybe I would not sell my house... I might want to" will "that to my kids..... better yet maybe I could just sell..my kids..lol.. . |

I wouldn't want to know.
I love surprises. |

Yes .. sell the whole lot, max out my Visa Card and go to Kansas to see my girl for starters .. I would like to keep my promise to myself and see Uluru one last time, but I'd like to spend my time with my kids.. that would be more important. Just be with my kids :) Would be a bit tricky, one of them here in the Netherlands, the other in Kansas, but quite sure we'd work something out!

If I have a chance to know when and how I die, I'd like to know if I'll die like my grandfather in his sleep or the other three passangers in the car screaming their heads off.
But really, I don't want to know. If I found out I'll die tomorrow then I won't be able to see my daughter's graduation in two weeks. It's really like being told by the doctor you only have so much time to live. Even if you're 100 years old, it's never a happy announcement, I don't think. |

I'd probably try to read the details a bit better. |
|

I don't think I would want to know but if I had to be told I would just go out and live life the way I want it to be. Travel, have fun and help as many people as I can.
