The list...

Last night I tried to write a blog saying farewell to 2011 and looking back over the year that was. I can honestly say that last year was one of the best of my life and it was full of happiness and achievements. However I was too hungover to get my head around the wording. So I scrapped that idea. Instead I thought I would share with you the plans I have for the future.


While I was on the road, without internet and with plenty of time to think, I started compiling a list of the things I want to achieve in my life. This is like a bucket list, a goal list and a to do list - all rolled into one. So that I did not stifle the flow of thoughts, I tried not to think too much about categorising or splitting up my thoughts. Many of these things I may not achieve until I am much older, and I might knock a few of these things of the list tomorrow. I plan to record my progress here! I will surely borrow a few of the fabulous ideas that I have seen floating around on other amazing ladies lists, and I hope you will feel most welcome to adopt any of my list items into your own - if they take your fancy!! This list will be constantly evolving!


Without further ado - here is my list!
