My blogging buddy Jan posted this the other day. It's a list of 99 activities/accomplishments, etc. The idea is to highlight those that can be checked off your list. I have changed this up a bit. If I haven't done one of the items, I have crossed it out and replaced it with something I have done. This may as well be fully descriptive of events in my life, rather than partial! Play along on your own blog if you feel so inclined.

I enjoyed getting to know you better!
Anne, this was wonderful! I so like your idea better. It was fun to read about you; some I thought, "I did that, too" or "How neat!" So glad you did this this way.
Bravo Luv!
