100 things to do before you die....

Is it just me or does everyone wonder what they’re going to do next?

My name is Caroline and I am 39. That’s right, 39 years old. If you’re older than me, you probably get it. 40 kind of sneaks up on you. Deep down, you know, I don’t think I ever really believed I’d be 40…and I know I’m not just yet, but it’s only a hop skip and a jump!

If you’re younger than me, don’t get too cocky tiger…it happens to the best of us….

Anyway, what have you done lately?

There’s a show on channel nine at the moment, it’s called things to try before you die and as 40 looms large, I thought I should get my own list together.

I can cross off the Sydney city to surf, did that on Sunday. Loved it…

I’ve jumped out of a plane a couple of times (not that keen)…been on a reality tv show…(loved it)…

I did the Mudjimba to Mooloolaba Charity swim…had three babies…backpacked around Europe, wrote a book! They’re all good, I know but I have to grow the list.

So here it is…I’ve actually done some of these – I googled the list, but I thought it was pretty good….
