Bucket list for the present

Hi friends! I'm back! No excuses, I was just gone a while. So for the past...going on 3 years now, I have been putting myself on hold. There have been things mentally and emotionally that have been holding me back from taking care of me, and living up to my fullest potential. This week some things have happened both professionally and in my life and my friends lives that I finally realized--life is too short to constantly put yourself last. I want live life to the fullest, since we are never promised tomorrow. I currently have 16 months left before my 35th birthday. I am so young and have so many things I want to accomplish, so I decided to create a bucket list for the present. I don't have any of the BIG bucket list things (go to multiple continents, skydive, swim with sharks, etc.)--I have time for those, and I also don't have a room full of money. : ) All of the things on this list should be attainable--with your help! I have decided to "crowd-source" assistance to achieve my bucket list. It will be a cool way for me to connect with people that I know, but don't get to spend a lot of time with, and will help people share their passions with the world. So, if you are a hairstylist and need a model? I am your girl. Need style help? Let me know! Is your job doing some kind of flash mob? Tell me so I can volunteer. In addition, if you have a bucket list that has items that I could help you achieve, I want to hear about it! I want to go boldly in the direction of my dreams and help you go boldly in the direction of yours! 1. Participate in a historical re-enactment 2. Attend a same-sex wedding in Minnesota 3. Be a model in a hair show 4. Run a marathon (maybe a half marathon) WITH my husband. 5. Do another musical. 6. Write a personal message to every single one of my facebook friends. 7.
