The One with the Bucket List, asking for your Help and More

First, I would like to thank everyone for their kind, supportive, and uplifting words. I feel them and I use them to motivate me. Second, let me make this VERY clear.....I am not going down without one hell of a fight. Just thought I would put that out there.


I went in for my new socket but unfortunately, it was too small. Thankfully, they had created an "oopsie" one a little bit back and that one worked a little. So I am wearing the oopsie until the too-small one fits. Life as an amputee is maddening. Something works great one day, but not the next. Your socket fitting depends upon, the weather, what you eat, hormones, etc. I swear it never fits the same. I have become a little more aggravated with it lately and I feel it is because I cut my leg off to be cancer-free and...here I sit with cancer again. I guess I felt like it was all for nothing. I think my anger is making me a little impatient with my socket at this time. This too shall pass.


I know staying positive is key! I have been spending time trying to write down all the places I want to see and things I want to do. This doesn't include the obvious things like watching J graduate, taking him to college, dancing at his wedding, etc. These are just things I have always wanted to do. I would like to start crossing some of these items ASAP!


Cortney's Life Bucket List


  • go to Turks & Caicos

  • go to Hawaii

  • visit London and tour everything!

  • see NYC (see Broadway show & the touristy things - I've never been)

  • go to Disneyland/tour L.A./tour California (Must see the Friends, BBT & HP sets on the WB Tour!)

  • re-visit Las Vegas (it has been 19 yrs)

  • Go to an Indianapolis Colts game

  • Go to a Taylor Swift concert (not even caring I would be the oldest person there)


This is my "will never happen but it doesn't hurt writing it down" List


  • be a zookeeper for a day

  • have a drink with a celebrity

  • meet one of the cast from Friends

  • take a private yacht cruise

  • fly on a private plane

  • sit courtside at a sporting event

  • stay on a wildlife reserve in Africa


When I became a travel agent, I set a first-year goal for myself. To obtain my AITA Card. It generally takes agents 2-3 years to obtain their card. This card allows you to receive personal discounts on hotel rooms, cruises, etc. To work on my bucket list, it would be so much more helpful if I had my IATA card. So here is what I am going to ask from YOU!


PLEASE help me hit my goal!! I am a little more than halfway to my goal. If you could help spread the word about my TA services I would greatly appreciate it! I DO NOT cost my clients anything. My commission comes from the company. I have planned amazing trips to Jamaica, Mexico, Disneyworld, Universal Studios, Disney and Royal Caribbean cruises, international hotel stays, excursions and weekend getaways. If you or someone you know has yet to plan their trip for this summer, late 2024, or 2025.....please send them my way! My TA e-mail address is cort@magicaladventurestravel.com. If you want to share my pages with your followers, my FB account is facebook/cortrobateau and my Insta is @cort_mat Please help me meet my goal!!!! Thank you for being my crew!


I wanted to have a light-hearted post for once. Things are difficult for me right now and I have good days and bad days. Focusing on fun things like this helps me! It forces me to see the future. I also am so happy to be concentrating on work again. I was hopeless for a bit but I am digging myself out to see the sunlight!


Love,

Cort

The One with the Results

Hi gang!! Wish I had better results news, but it turns out that it was a clear cell sarcoma tumor in my right humerus bone. ($@#%!)...
