ReplyDeleteHey Lara I'm your swap partner for the blog swap on Swap bot
ReplyDeleteI have to say you have really inspired me. I went from most recent on back to the beginning. This is something I would love to try too. Thank you so much for letting me into your life through your blog.
You have my name for the current "Check out my blog" Swap and guess what happened... I found your blog and LOVE it!!! I have bookmarked it and will definitely be revisitiing you and your list... how inspiring!
ReplyDeleteSearching for interesting goals, I came across this somewhere and I must say it was pretty awesome! I loved how it really involved funny and random things.
ReplyDeleteWe've made a blogpost trying to inspire as many as people as possible to participate (one of our goals was to write this ;). Perhaps you want to leave a comment of what you thought your best or most interesting/exciting goal was?
