Ok. So, I didn't do 4. YIKES. BUT, I decided on what 21 is.


Who is ready to hear? Eh? Eh?


I'm going to keep blogging. And even more, I am making a new list. A 22 list. But it is going to be very different than this one. Possibly a little more exciting. I hope you think so because I am very thrilled about it. I haven't finished the list yet so I am going to wait to tell you what the list is really about until I finish it completely!


Thank you all so much for enjoying this with me and I hope you stick around for the next big adventure!
