gosh, i wouldn't want to do that meme for fear that the world would then know what a BORING life i've had! =) looks like you've done some neat things! happy new year and GOD bless.
ps. have you a patron saint for this year yet?

A gondola in Venice? I am SO jealous!

The story goes that when I was touring Europe as a college student, I "saved" Venice for my honeymoon. My honey ended up taking me to...Winnipeg.

In late December, to boot.

This was fun!! And I'm not as boring as I thought I would be :-)

What an exciting life you've had so far! Many of those are still on my 'to do' list!
