While most of the things on my list are brand new and still to-do, there are a couple that I've already accomplished, and I'm including those to. I had some big dreams and plans when I graduated high school and am damn proud of what I’ve accomplished in the eleven years since then… so they count. There are a couple things I’ve already done that don’t qualify as proud moments, but were definitely good memories. Plus, it will get me to devote time to write about them.
So, I invite you to join me on this journey and keep me accountable for 22 things to accomplish in 12 months… 30 stories in 365 days.

I love your list Dana! Perhaps I will be inspired enough to make my own. Only trouble is I only have 6 months to complete mine. I wish you are close enough, so I could join you on so much of the fun! I'm in for Vegas (ha ha). Miss you lots.
PS... for some reason it says that Up In Lights left you that comment, but it was really me. I was logged in to the wrong account. Tee hee. Love Brit
I LOVE this idea, I may need to steal it from you in the next year or two =)
I can help you with the shoot a gun! Come to the Academy with you and I'll get one of the SWAT officers to teach you to shoot a gun and the bean bag shot gun!! And you can keep the target as a souvenir (SP?)
Wow! That's a pretty serious list. I saw some on there that I would like to accomplish as well.
Good for you!
I love this idea! I would steal it too, but I turn 30 in 4 short months (Yikes).
Miss you, as always.
