Good luck with your list. I think I need to do my own.
I wish we lived in the same area...I would try to help you out with all of these things! I really have a feeling you will be able to do it! You have written it down...now put it all into action! You can email me at justjill24 @ hotmail .com if you'd like my support! Jill
Great list of things! I could help you out with #78. I'm going there at the end of Sept. My husband and I are going to the Frozen Fury (La Kings vs Colorado Avs) game at the MGM Grand. We are planning to stay for 2 nights which means I will have free time. He'll be playing alot of poker, and I don't gamble.
My friend Becca (aka digitalgoobie.blogspot.com) is doing the 101 in 1001 days list too. I like your #9. Better start the seeds now!
PS. I've been in a hot air balloon. It's so amazing! You should go with Kevin! It will be something you two will never forget! My dad took my sister and I about 7 years ago. You'll love it!!
you have already lost thirty pounds? good for you!
