Bucket List

update at 1:28 my time----All these comments are making me feel like a ROCK STAR.

Hi SITS gals!!! Thank you for visiting. I'd like to return the favor, so.....I don't know how to do the fancy linky dinky thing.... but if anyone sends me a link by comment, I'd love to have some links to your own bucket lists to add to my post! Just send me your name and the URL where I can find your list! See what you can dream up about your own fabulous future!

Before I die, I want to:
