Over at No More Spending, a Bucket List was posted. The Happy Homeowner also has a GREAT one! I've been wanting to finish creating my bucket list for awhile. Hopefully I can cross some things off my list also. I've done some of these things, but some were so long ago, that I don't think they should count anymore. Here it goes.

August 29, 2011 at 9:07 amThanks for the nod–my list was so much fun to put together! The best part about doing this is knowing these goals are tangible and fluid–my "life list" is always changing, and most often for the best. I look forward to following you as you get to cross things off (this is one of the best parts of having such a list, for sure!).
