Jan07_Bucket List_web

You and I are very much alike, even though our lists are very different. I am trying to do the same as you for 2, 4, & 5. Best of luck to us both!

@Electra Partners in crime so to speak. We should encourage each other throughout the year and celebrate our progress. Number 4 is desperate needed it I have no enthusiasm for it.

@flowersgal DEAL! And I am with you on #4, but at least I have started!

@Electra. Good for you -- started already It this point I am into MOC and procrastination on that one. Working on 1 & 2.

@flowersgal lolol!

oh Patsy...don;t know where to start!!!!!! beautiful, beautiful in every possible way!!!! Love that you decided to go full on for a proper challenge, on doing different than travel... and what a gorgeous list!!!!!! #2 is something I have been fiercely trying to follow (taking I am Diabetic and was on my way to Kidney Failure) but still find SO difficult...if you can, there are so many amazing recipes and the way to go is to balance sizes of portions abs many other tricks... I did a complete clean up in August that dramatically lower my blood levels that were wrong...but then carrying in on has been difficult to put it lightly...one tip: sweeteners and sugar replacements act in the system exactly same as sugar (so my diabetes dietitian says) is better to have a tiny little bit of sugar than go for diet stuff.... would LOVE to be able to do my genealogical, it is seriously difficult because my family comes from Syria.... and de-clutter...I have had this goal and...OMG I am such a hoarder... but I think I am getting better on that one!!!
The page visually couldn't be more beautiful, love the "division" and the silhouette how it plays with the title work (gorgeous!!) and the use of the colorful strups for the items, balanced with the balloons...it maybe not your usual style, but I think I would LOVE to see more like this one from you!!!!!!!!!
Thank you so much for playing with us!!!!

@MrsPeel - thank you so much my sweet friend. Yep it is a hard list. I, too, try to avoid artifical sweeteners as I think putting chemicals in the body is likely just as harmful as using sugar. But I love sweets so it is a constant battle. Genealogy is both challenging and rewarding and often extremely frustrating. I worked on it for over 25 years before I simply burned out and laid it aside. I don't plan to do any more research but would like to have what I've already done organized. And as to decluttering, I think it will need to be a life long pursuit -- I'm not very good at it (too sentimental, I think) and I'm easily overwhelmed by it.
