Happy Birthday, my friend. I am so thankful we met 21 years ago. My life would not be the same without you. May you be richly blessed this year!
love you!
Happy Birthday Kari! What a great list. I'm so impressed that you've been sky diving! I'm so glad that you like writing, because I love reading your blog. :)
Great list! Happy 41!!
Happy Birthday!! We have some things in common...I wish I'd started earlier too. I want to have one more before 40 (in two years) but I think I would've liked more. I also have a degree in psychology and work in finance.
I hope you have a wonderful day today!
Happy Birthday Kari!
What a fabulous list! I'm with you on the last one, my blog helped me realize how much I love writing too!
Happy Birthday. I love that you tried out for Survivor.
First: Happy Birthday. For my 40th, I had a pinata and the them was, are you sitting down.....Olivia. Yeah, you'll be reading that in a blog post in the next couple days, more than likely.
I love reading this lists about other bloggers. It sounds like bullshit but it's true. The fact that your FIL was an FBI agent is probably the coolest thing ever (total true crime junkie here) I love autumn as well. I don't drink coffee but love coffe nips and coffee ice-cream, go figure. Thanks for sharing
Happy Birthday. (A little belated.)
Hope it was a great one. It was beautiful, I know that's for sure, with all that rain leading up to it.
New York is my favorite US city, but SF Bay Area is home.
Sorry this is late I've been off the radar but Happy belated Birthday.
Milk with ice in - eeeewwww!
Envious of Tahiti!
We need to meet up one day in SF - in fact I was in Sausalito just last week.
Ok, forget the when is your birthday question that I just asked you. Happy belated birthday. Ha, I may steal this idea from you next week. :)
Loved getting to know you a little bit better! My big four-oh is sneaking up on me. Sort of like a freight train sneaks up on the station.
Honestly, I'm freaked about it. Go away, four-oh!
