@EB – Not a dumb question. I write the list but I don’t actually go through and cross things off or update the same one hundred entries. I’ve just created several lists. So they’re “2018 List of 100 Dreams” and “2010 List of 100 Dreams” and so forth. I think some people create such lists and look at them frequently, others don’t. To me, one of the benefits of the list is having ideas of things I might like to try, and then I pick a few to work on in the near future, and generally ignore the others for a while.

In a special book? On the computer? I like planners and journals, but pretty much every journal I have is temporal and I shelve it after a year (or throw it away if it is my planner). I love the 100 dreams concept. I have been following you for years and created a list a while back, but now I can’t find it. 🙂

@Hayley – that would indeed be a fun way to celebrate the birthday! I’m less than T minus 2 months now, so not sure I could pull it off in time. Maybe a delayed 40th party…

I think a villa in Tuscany would be an AWESOME way to celebrate 40!

I’d love to see / help with #98 – film Time Makeovers
And for the 40th – my sisters and I all went to music festivals for each of our big 4-0 celebrations! Very memorable!

@Byrd – that sounds like a pretty accurate description of my body, so I will go check them out!

We have enough in common that they might work for you too?

#83 I bought some bath bombs to help with that and my 3 year old daughter used them all! We did have some good science-y discussions about what “dissolve” means.

Lake Norman is near the Charlotte airport so the out-of-towners had simpler logistics. Some of the friends hadn’t met each other, but I’d known them a total of 139 years. We stargazed from the dock, soaked in the hot tub, binge watched Outlander, and played Scrabble and Cards Against Humanity into the wee hours. It was a great time, and it also sparked an annual get together for one subset of us, and plans for a 2020 trip to Europe for another subset.
