There’s a group of bloggers livin’ it up and sharing stuff about their lives. They started with a life list link-up and have now moved on to a “life well lived” link-up, which involves making a list of things you’ve done (cool stuff, accomplishments, you know the drill). I’ve done some cool stuff, so I figured I’d play along.
Here’s the list of things I’ve done. (And if you read this blog with any regularity some of this will not be news to you. But some will. Trust me.)
I have:
Played a Muppets song at my wedding
Sat on a boat in the middle of the ocean with no land visible
Gone snowshoeing
Kissed the Blarney Stone
Dyed a blue streak in my hair
Sigh. I miss the blue.
Been published on Huffington Post
Lived and worked in Australia
Driven across the Australian outback with a group of truckers I had just met
Gone on two solo backpacking trips
Gone to the Olympics
Driven halfway across Canada with my parents and siblings (when I was an adult)
Quit my job when I didn’t have another to go to because I knew I needed a change (twice)
Done a TEDx talk
Learned to read and write Russian
Had a C-section
My first baby
Had a natural birth
Sung a lullaby to a baby
Gone skinny dipping
Spent a weekend in Vegas
Completed a master’s degree
With my mama
Seen Lionel Richie in concert (What? I was, like, 9)
Worked as a telemarketer
Driven an ice cream truck for the summer
Confessed to embarrassing things on my blog
Trained a puppy
Wasn’t he cute? (Yes, he does have eyes.)
Very painfully learned to drive a stick shift
Kept a major secret for 18 years (so far)
Lent someone money
Driven through a tunnel that’s 25 km (16 miles) long
Said “I love you” to someone
What would be on your list?
