So fun to read. I hope you find your wedding ring. We leave for Oceanside on the 10th so we are totally going to hang out! Can't wait!
I found my rings- they were where I out them but it was above my head so when I felt for them I couldn't find them. Then I got on a chair and they were there. Now if I could just not take them off!!
This was so fun to read. We are so alike in so many ways...our list could have been identical if I was doing some of the categories too. I had to laugh about the "4 piece chicken nugget" thing...isn't it the truth...it is just so much EASIER that way sometimes!! I too can't wait to own a home, have more kids (not anytime soon though!), be out of debt, etc. This was a neat tag!
I agree, that was really fun to read. You are one of my idols Sarah. You are so "together" or at least put on the illusion quite well. :) We totally missed you last week but I know how it goes with the whole brain thing. I thought mine would return once I was un-pregnant but it seems to be a more permanent condition than I was expecting. :)
