I know what you mean about the Freddy Kruger movies. They creep me out, but I still love them and have them all.
Great Idea!I have been meaning to make myself a "bucket list". Some of the things on your list is exactly what I plan on doing starting out the new year. Such as playing guitar, learn to speak Spanish, go on a Alaskan cruise and go to New York. After I get settled in after I move, I will write my list and share also.
Great List!

I can't wait to see your list. Writing it was a really great exercise and honestly, some of the things I learned about myself were shocking. For example, how much I truly want to get over my fear of heights. While I was thinking about all the things I would love to do that fear kept popping up. I never realized how deep it ran until now. Good luck with the move and your list! Thanks for stopping by. :)
I have all of the Anne of green gables movies including the new ones on DVD. And Freddy Kruger scared the crap out of me. I lost alot of sleep after I saw those movies, but for some reason I watched everyone.
