Earlier this year I was inspired by a friend from high school, which we reconnected through Facebook, after she created a list of 47 things to do before her 48th birthday. It has been 6 months since I started my list and I cannot say I am half way done but I am having a blast doing the things on my list and I have checked a bunch off. If there are any of the items on my list that you want to help me with please get in touch with me.
