MY WINTER BUCKET LIST
2021
It's a new year! I choose to rejoice in living regardless of what is going on around me. Does that mean my life is great? No, not necessarily. I'm recovering from breast surgery again. That's four years in a row. Thanks cancer. BUT GOD! He is faithful, and He has taken me through it all and brought me out happier and stronger.
Thank you for real Jesus!
I wrote this list to help me focus on the little things that bring me joy.
