The 99 Things list...

Have you seen this? It's the 99 things list and I saw it from a fellow bloggers list. Seems it may be connected to blog candy from Sue's Krafty Cards Here!

I've not done much I guess, judging by this list. Some I'm sure you wouldn't want to know about (like the karaoke one!). But judging myself - I've done a lot! NOT a lot on this list! Mine would be a more mundane list I'm sure.

My list would contain things like: swam in the muddy old river, climbed a tree, had a Christmas Open House every year for over 17 years!, raised two normal healthy loving sons!, call my Mom faithfully nearly every week, keep in touch with friends - old & new, sang in church every Sunday, visited older relatives, you know.... all those regular type things. But those are my kind of things. I had a son walk the Great Wall of China, and another son who has published a book. My husband has met and interviewed many Celebrity type people. Those things are great too, just not my kind of list.

But come along for the adventure of seeing how you stack up! Actually there is no comparision - just a simple statement of fact.
