So far I have done:
4. Buy a reliable car (07 Toyota Camry!)
13. Show the ocean to Nicholas (Charleston, SC)
27. Learn how to do my hair (spent some time with some moose and a straightner!)

I am also currently working on:
7. Build my savings to the recommended amount (its way higher then it was when I wrote this)
10. Get on my dream CTs (I got Shawna's & am guesting for Traci next month)
26. Pay off all my student loans (paying off the one seperate one before the end of the year)

LOL... well, we did miss the Great Cheese Festival which was early June... We LOVE our festivals in Wisconsin!!

I bet Rapids had an aroma... I live near Kimberly/Kaukauna/Combined Locks... we have our share of paper mills along the Fox River, too... man, it's horrible when the wind is from the southeast!
