I've done numbers 6, 8, 9 and I will do number 5 in about 5 1/2 months (unless you count giving birth to ideas, which I have done plenty of). Other things. Let's see:

Been bitten by a seahorse
Petted a porcupine
Spent 30 minutes trying to figure out how to flush a toilet in Kyoto, Japan

And many more. those are the first ones that come to mind off hand.

Kelli,

Hope you don't mind my chiming in, I read your blog all of the time!

Petted a porcupine, I don't think we'll hear of anyone repeating that anytime soon.

And Seahorse bites? They must be more like nibbles? Right?

1. I’ve been hit by a train, and lived unscratched to tell about it. Long story, but very good.

2. Watched an alligator catch and eat a stork 30 feet from me, while I was waist deep in the water.

3. Layed on the ground in Canada and watched the northern lights paint the most fantastic paintings in the sky.

4. Have never given birth, but cried and was totally amazed at the birth of my own two children.

5. Worked in a Veterinary Hospital through out High School, and my job was to shovel “stuff”.

6. Hiked through waist deep snow for 10 miles, and slept in a cave for 2 days.

7. Canoed for two weeks in pristine wilderness in northern Manitoba, and ate fresh fish every day.

8. Taught myself to fly fish when I was 13 years old.

9. Took voice lessons, and can sing.

10. Walked away from Jesus, and have finally returned. This is the most important thing I've done.

Now, the list of things I’d like to do is too long to share, God only knows what may happen!

Jim, thanks for chiming in! (Kelly, I hope you don't mind my welcoming him.) The seahorse didn't get much accomplished when biting me, it was more like a kiss on the finger than anything, but it makes for a great story. And as for the porcupine, it was at a petting zoo somewhere in the Northwest of the US (I was too young to remember where) but I do know that if they are not alarmed, their quills lay flat almost like hair and they can be petted (in the correct direction) without harm.
