How I did it
How to make a will
It took me
1 day
It made me
Happy and sad

How I did it:  I went to Legalzoom.com.  It was much easier for me than trying to figure out which attorney to use.  I actually found the link on 43 things.  It was very quick and easy.  I didn't add specific items for people but I don't have a lot of value.  Read how I did it…

How to scrapbook my vacation
It took me
12 months
It made me
happy

How I did it: I actually find I can only do about two pages at a sitting. I just kept pulling it out.  I wish it hadn't taken a year though.  There was some risk in losing my motivation but that didn't happen.  Read how I did it…

make a will
this week! 4 months ago

I am getting this started this week. I’ve found it a little daunting deciding who to do this for me. I’ve heard you can do this on-line but I’m not sure what is best

write a book (read all 18 entries…)
someone asked me 10 months ago

How are you doing on your book? I haven’t worked on this in forever. She was like “are you halfway, more than halway”? I wasn’t sure how to answer. I actually appreciate her. She has no doubts I’ll do it. I’m going to go write.
