I stole this from Kaytabug, and it's a good thing she had it, because my brain is in sleep mode, with no improvement in sight. Today is my first of a five out of six day work run, and even though only a couple of them are twelve hour shifts, I'm tired just thinking about it. Yikes!
Things I've done are in orange, things I haven't are in black and anything pending is in blue. Ignore any editorial comments along the way. (Here's a pre-comment to ignore- dang, I need to travel more).

Wow that is one cool list? Where did you get that from?
Thanks for taking the time to do all that - it's great to learn more about you.
You rafted the Colorado ? (Any river?) Wow.
Loving this list!! Very cool. So glad you took the time to do this. It was really fun to read.
Now get some rest!
Sweet dreams.
XOXOX
Looks like you've been busy at more than just work. I think you should have taken credit for saved a life more than once though. It's probably countless times at this point.
I may just have to borrow that. Very cool. I liked the commentary, it was illuminating.
Great list. Although I'm a bit bummed that Visit Ireland wasn't in blue. :)
lordy that's one long list - no wonder you're tired!!
WOW Loved the list (and the info)- will definitely have to do that - one day!!
crazy cath - it came from kaytabug, and she seems very willing to share!
eileen - I'm awake and rarin' to go!
rudee - you kind of lose count after a while, don't you?
ped crossing - go for it! I borrowed it because I thought it looked like fun.
ann - none of the travel ones are in blue because I (unfortunately) don't see any travel in my immediate future. But Ireland has always been at the top of my list. Always. I spent a month in England once and could never get the friend I was with to go to Ireland. I would love that one back. I'd go alone and love it.
flowerpot - very easy post. Brought to you by cut and paste. All I had to do was highlight what I'd done. (Of course I talk too much and had to put in comments, too!)
SITH - I'd love to read it. Let me know when you do.
Cool! This is fun to read and it was easy to do!! Loved your commentary...I wanted to comment on mine but for some unknown reason didn't. I talk too much too!
I am so jealous. You have a life.
This is just a wonderful list. I think I'll make one of my own to put on the bulletin board, so that whenever I'm bored or in a bad mood, I can look at it and feel better.
Another inspirational gem, RC.
Quite a list you got there!
Bet it took time, but we learned more about you.
Lovely to be able to say you saved someone's life!
interesting list. So many on there that I wouldn't even want to do....but alas...so many that I would, but probably won't. sigh.
Great list RC. There is so much I haven't done.
Hope work is ok and you're not too tired sweetie. Yay we got a blog baby. :D
You've sure done a lot on that list! You've held a tarantula? Phew!
Great list! Life would never be boring with you around :)
I will put mine up Sunday.
RC, I felt so bad about not visiting you for awhile, but I see you have not been here either for a bit, so that's alright then. I assume you are having enough to do with the job and the kids and the dogs and everything else.
Do take care of yourself and be good for goodness sake. Take it easy!
Big hug. xoxox
