  1. What a great list! I love “to do” lists but have never made one about living life.


  2. These look like some pretty awesome goals to me! That’s a big list. I do have to admit that being chased by a pack of elves is actually a recurring nightmare that I have πŸ™‚ This is a great Blog Shannon and you’re doing great things!
