Hi Molly,

I'm trying to catch up on the blogs I like to read. Sorry to have missed yours for a while.

You've certainly done some interesting and wonderful things. What an awesome list.

How lovely it must be to wake up and smell the ocean each morning.

Pax. Kimberly

Thanks for checking in Molly. I have been so busy, I haven't really kept up with others so I assumed no one kept up with me. It is nice to be missed.

An amazing list! Some little things, some big things, what a well-rounded person you must be.

Molly said...

Oh yes. I'm quite round in my old age. hehe
Donna, I think I had just read your 100 things that got me thinking, and once I started I couldn't stop until I got bored with it and a bit embarrassed talking so much about me!
Hi Dixie, thanks for the kind words. (I want to spend a month in Germany next summer)
Kimberly, I've been missing your great updates. I'm so glad you are back.
And Miss rcbeach, I'm glad to see you again, too. :)
