As I said in an earlier posting, I've abandoned my 101 Things in 1001 Days list because it felt more like a " to do" list than a list of things I wanted to actually do.

Oh my! You have totally worn me out!!!
Somehow I never had you pictured as a chainsaw type of woman though!
But I love lists! I write tons of them. There is just something about scratching the entries off...
I'm not a chain saw type woman, that's why I need to learn to use one. ;) Someone needs to be using one around here or we won't be able to get in the driveway by the end of the year! I wish there was someone I could learn how to be a country girl from. I'd sure sign up for lessons.
Call me if you go to the HOB brunch and we'll meet you there!
