Things I've Done

It's a good day for a list, don't you think?

I am 29 years old, and I have...

1.  Visited London, the city of my dreams.

2.  Worked for eight different employers since age 14.

3.  Had seven different cars/SUVs, three of which were Hondas.


4.  Had two significant car wrecks.

5.  Learned to play the flute and piccolo.

6.  Read thousands of books, including almost fifty this year.


7.  Nursed my babies.

8.  Attended the same church my entire life.

9.  Been baptized and given my heart to Jesus.


10.  Been inside the White House.

11.  Taken three cruises (Bahamas, Mexico, Mexico).

Elation

12.  Won a spelling bee.

13.  Taught a college course.

14.  Ridden in a horse-drawn carriage.



15.  Made many, many mistakes.

16.  Been forgiven.

17.  Seen a cow give birth (Random, right?!).

18.  Gone fishing with my dad.

19.  Played slot machines in Las Vegas.



20.  Had three dogs and at least a dozen cats over the years.

21.  Had my heart broken (or so I thought at the time).

22.  Been to Disney World.

  1. I enjoyed your list. Let's see, I haven't taken a cruise yet (but would love to!) or played slot machines, taught a college course or watched a cow being born. And you're only 29? Wow!

  2. Excellent list! I haven't done a lot of those things and I'm 40. But I know I have my own interesting list.

  3. I did a study abroad for three months in London when I was 19, and LOVED it. I would love to go back there with my husband.

    I also really, really want to go on a cruise someday!

  5. I should do this...

    I would love you to do a post on cruises - why you love them so much, what to beware of, etc.

    DO you think they're appropriate for our babies?

  8. #3 for me it has been 6 in total and 2 were Honda Civics (but I have a love-hate with cars - they just eat big chunks off my pay every month)
