If you do this meme, let me know so I can check it out.
I don't think it's a good or bad thing to have done these particular things, or more or less of them. I mean, how many things could you add that you HAVE done if you were making the list yourself? And some you wouldn't want to have done, like nearly dying in a car accident? Interesting though to think of all these things and and an infinite number more that aren't listed. Fun to read your list.
ReplyDeleteI know it lighten the load, but I would avoid the head shaving one. Your hair is too gorgeous.
