I usually have a pretty good idea of what Life List items I’ll be tackling in the year ahead but this year really was a toss up. We’ll be focusing on paying off our new deck during the first part of the year so any Life List items will be of the more frugal variety. 🙂 Travel plans are also up in the air for the time being. I’ve gone through my List and removed a few of things that were no longer of interest and added some new items. I’ve also been pondering some New Year’s resolutions for the past few days and have settled on a few to focus on in 2015.
New items added to the list:
