What I have and Haven't done...The LIST

This was a fun and easy post that I got from Tina, I was really surprised at what I've done (most of it is because I'm married to Frank - he is the adventurous one).
I think it helps to do lists when your blue to see that "wow my life really doesn't stink!" Something like that. Enjoy!

The idea is you're supposed to bold the things that you have done (I also changed the color to blue...so those aren't links to anything...) There are lots of things I haven't done. I'm not sure what that says about me... but anywho, if you like to tag someone with this feel free to do so, I honestly don't know the origin of this, but it's interesting all the same...Have a wonderful day!

I only did the bungee thing last year :). Laurel convinced me to do the bungee dive at Magic Mountain. It is probably one of the most scary things I've ever done and I have video proof! Frank still can't believe it :).

I loved this list because alot of the items are normal stuff that anyone could do...I haven't done that much, but I'm alot older than most of you ha ha ha!

You've done a ton. I thought for some reason you'd been to Paris. I've hardly done anything. I was surprised you haven't been on a cruise. I think we should do a high school cruise. Maybe even an all girls one...that would be more fun.
