Anyways, that is all I have for now. I always add things to the list, but at this point, I have a lot ahead of me in order to accomplish everything. I am going to try to post on each number as I cross them off. Rock climbing has already been blogged about a few posts back. AND I'll be doing that again, this weekend hopefully, so maybe I'll get someone to snap a pic so I can post with more details. I am anxious to hear other's lists

The List

I began a list when I was in high school after seeing "A Walk to Remember" (God, do I LOVE that movie!). Anyways, I made a list of everything I wanted to do before I died. The list contained some small things, random things, all the way up to large things. I kept this list with me where ever I went. When we evacuated for Hurricane Katrina, it came along for the ride. Somehow, in a horrible, horrible mishap, I left the list in the apartment in Marietta, Georgia. Upon leaving the apartment, I suddenly realized I had left it. My heart began to race and I had Robert call Henry to see if he could grab it before he left (Henry shared our apartment and wasn't scheduled to leave until a few weeks after us). The phone call was made and to my horror, my list evidently thrown away. I shed a few tears for the list I had worked so long and hard on, both adding things and scratching things off as I went on with my life. I got over it. A year or two later I had completely forgotten about it. That was, until I began thinking about death so much. I'm not trying to be morbid at all. It is a fact of life, we all die. So I thought to myself, maybe I should start another list? & what better place to keep this list than on here, where it CAN'T be lost or thrown away! So....for your reading enjoyment...here is my list! Feel free to make suggestions, I like to do fun things, exciting, scary, crazy...whatever!!
