Bucket List

So I was over on Sweet Potato Pie's blog the other day, and saw her post about her bucket list. It hit me at a time when a lot of these sorts of things had already been milling about in my mind, keeping me up at night. So I decided it might be a good idea to start on my own list. It was harder than I thought. I did half of it pretty quickly - the last half took a lot more thought. 

I decided that this is really just a Bucket List of sorts. Rather than it being all about places I want to visit or things I want to do, it also includes things that are important to me... things I wouldn't be content to leave this life without knowing. Does that make sense? I wonder if that's a control freak thing. In any case, here's my list... I'll probably change it a gazillion times :) Feel free to join me and make your own list too - I'd love to know what's keeping you up at night ;)
