Inspiring!!! I so need to make a list like this. Do you mind if I ask how you made the collage?
Awesome! I especially like #35!
Those are great! My head is already spinning with ideas. I'm going to add a couple of years to mine. I'm already 32!
Alright- I LOVE this!!! Can I borrow some ideas? I missed the cut-off but I can shoot for 45, right?:) As far as the swap goes, it is super easy and fun! Just make/purchase some goodies for your swap partner (I will mail their address to you) and then enjoy the goodies you get in return!:) Send me your address and a list of things that you like (ex. polka dots, aprons, chocolate, etc.) when you get a second, OK? This will help your partner get an idea of what you like. toosillysisters@cox.net Lori
Hey, girl! I wrote a list after seeing yours, inspired by this post but took awhile to get it on my blog...I had to change it due to pregnancy changing what I could do before my 40th (next April) so changed it to 45 to do before 45. Just posted it...here's the link...I gave you credit for the idea :o)
