I want to go to Disney World as an adult!
ReplyDeleteYou have done a lot of cool things. What animals do you prepare and cook in the fall?
Teach me how to garden! I need to do this list!
ReplyDeleteI love this! I think you are a tad more adventurous than me. Some of them I'd be proud to have not done (like breaking a bone, been involved in a law suit, been fired...well, sorry about that one but I am sure it wasn't a great work experience anyway). You have done some cool stuff and made a great start in life. I am with you on hoping to travel more in my future. *Sigh*
ReplyDeleteThis is SO cool! I'm gonna have to jump on the bandwagon too :)
ReplyDeleteThis was so much fun to read. Thank you : )
ReplyDeleteI really like your blog, I'll start following.
