I love it!! As I was reading through your list I was thinking of some of the things that I could have been there for. Crazy things that we may have done together once upon a time.

You crack me up. As I got to #37 it asks had enough money to be satisfied and you came pretty close. I think it is so funny how our little lives shift from time to time, or even one month to the next.
I remember when you purchased the hocus focus. I was pretty sure that I wanted the same car too, it could have been that I wanted to be just like you, and you made that car look good.

You are such a fun girl, and I know that you are always up for anything, even if it means that you have to rig tents up with shoelaces in the middle of the desert, or try to catch a little mouse that had escaped from the neighboring pet shop. (trapped in the proofer, need I say more) I sure do miss you.

Thanks for doing this post I needed a little more Kelly today.
