I don’t quite have a hundred. But I don’t do it all at once. I add things as I see them. Like, keep your eyes open on the way to the store. Something neat will happen, and you can add it to your list. Or watch a thunderstorm from your front porch with your hubby. Or read to him while he cooks dinner. Or put bacon on the list, because you suddenly realized that bacon has to be a gift from God. (My apologies if you’re Jewish. No offense intended.).... Aha, looking at your list, I see you do add things as time passes. Well, great minds…. :D 6 years ago
