i've hiked through the himalayas...

...but there's still so much I want to do.  Wait, can you believe I've hiked through the Himalayas!  Who get's to do that?!

On of the things that inspired me to start this little blog was Mighty Girl's "Mighty Life List."  I've always loved lists, as I'm sure you'll see as this blog grows.  I really have no idea why I love lists...maybe it's the fact that The Madre (yes, the oh so affectionate way I refer to my dear mother) always had sticky notes everywhere with lists on them.  

Anyways, as I continually sort through the craziness that is life, I wanted a place to remember, reflect on, and share all the wonderful experiences I've had.  And of course, I also need a place to fantasize and plan all the wonderful experiences yet to come! So...tah-dah!  The BIG Ol' List!  Yes, some of the things I put on it I've already done, but they were just too wonderful and fantastic to leave off.  And yes, some of the things may look quite familiar to Mighty Girl's list...but they are just too fantastic to leave off as well!  I'm excited to add  new things...I don't think I'll take anything off, unless I develop a super unnatural fear of, say...well I can't think of anything.  Above all, I hope this list will help me see the things that are most important to me in life.
