35 Before 35

My 35 before 35 list is finally finished! Some I expect will be easy peasy. Others, unlikely. Creating this list was actually a bit of a soul-searching experience. Notice that "Polar bear plunge" made the list, but "sing karaoke" did not. I wonder what that says about me?

3. Take a girls vacation
4. Go fishing
5. Learn to sew and make something I can use
6. Host a party

So, fingers crossed that I can get all of this done in the next four years. Anyone drive a stick shift?
