I have never been much for making lists. Well... up until recently that is. In fact, I used to think these people were just a little crazy, that had to have a list that told them what to do and how to do it. I have even known people that their lists have lists!
Now... as I am getting ssshhhhh! a little older. Well... Maybe a lot older. Eeeekk! I seem to be one of "those" people with said list. Ok... I will admit, it is very satisfying, fun and calming to cross off the items, and when I saying crossing off I get a colorful pen and cross away. I'm realizing that I'm getting much more done because of this list! It's just plain fun crossing off the items such as...
Then I started thinking... I should have a Life List, aka Bucket List! It would be fun to have an ongoing, hopefully one day I get to do this list! So here are 50 things that I would love to do one day...

XoXo,
WOW. That's all I have to say. WOW. It is waayyy too intimidating to me to make that kind of list, but maybe I'm just a big chicken! Sounds like you have an exciting time ahead of you :)
ReplyDeleteI want to go to Paris too and rent an apartment, maybe for a month! You can come for 2 weeks...Oh and a cabin for the summer would be sooo fun! Cross off photoshop, there is no way to learn it! I am such a crazy list person, if I do something that is not on my list, I write it on and then cross it off....Crazy Lady!

ReplyDeleteHi Katie, Thank you so much for your sweet comment on my blog recently. I love your list! I started one a while ago, but after reading yours, I see that I need to spice mine up a bit! I love the Paris idea.
ReplyDeleteWarmly, Michelle
PS-I also have a tri-colored Cavalier named "Sam", but he is much fatter than your Emma. What a beauty. LOVE that breed.
Hi Katie,
