There are so many things that I want to try, and things I want to accomplish. Some are very “small” everyday things, and others are major events that would require plans, creativity, and $$$. I have had a bucket list since I was 17 years old. It’s really long, and I’ve been adding items, crossing things off, and erasing some things too. They are not in any particular order. This list will definitely grow over time. For now, here it is in black and white…or grey ha ha!
