I decided this year that I wanted to make a list of 100 things I want or want to do… I’ve tried this a couple of times in my journals over the years but obviously life changes, our interests change and we change… but there have always been things that have stayed on my list.

Admittedly, some of them I have already done – but I’d do them again to create new memories or experience with Jubs rather than my friends, family or people that would just rather forget or are no longer a part of my life.
