#76: Inspire someone else to make a list.

Date Completed:  3/14/2010

I was really excited when my friend Carrie* told me that she made a list. And when I say excited, I mean excited in the way that a parent glows when their child brings home an “A” on a report card! Carrie’s book club, The Heated Readers, is reading “The Next Thing On My List" (a novel by Jill Smolinski) and she’s trying to inspire each of them to create a list - how fun! When Lisa and I envisioned the concept for our list project, one of our hopes was that this would catch on. This blog has been a fun way to introduce the list to all of you. Through the benefit of the Internet, the blog has even reached Australia! We love to see new readers, near and far, so please feel free to pass the link to others. Our Facebook group is open to everyone as well, so please invite your friends to become a fan! We’d love to hear about your lists too.
*Carrie and I met in grade school in Northern MN where we were active in Camp Fire Girls/Bluebirds. These pictures are from field trips. Carrie now lives with her husband in the Phoenix area with their two beautiful girls. How ironic that she moved to AZ and I ended up moving back to MN. Hope you enjoy this blast from the past.

I think you may have inspired me to expedite the launch of my blog because I remember the day I told you that I wanted to start a blog you told me that you had just gotten off the phone with Lisa about discussions about this blog!

I'm sure we co-inspired :) Great minds think alike. I'm glad you're "on the list" too (#26, actually)!
