I started my “101 Things to do in 1001 Days” challenge on April 24, 2016, and I feel like I’ve not accomplished much in the past four months. So earlier this week, I decided to sit down with my list to see what, if anything, I’ve accomplished so far. But first, who inspired me to do this list? It was two bloggers… first was Kate from Kate The Almost Great, and she pointed me in the direction of Mackenzie Horan at Design Darling, who put together her first list together in 2011.

I stumbled upon a movie on TV the other night starring the handsome, and now married, Ryan Reynolds. I’ve been smitten with Reynolds since Two Guys, A Girl and A Pizza Place. The movie I’m writing about was a made-for-TV movie titled School of Life (2005) and starred Reynolds as Michael D’Angelo.

10 Things I Enjoyed About My First BlogHer Conference
I can’t believe that it’s been a month since I attended the BlogHer 16 Conference in Los Angeles, California. I absolutely loved my time in LA, and the best part of the conference, for me, was getting to meet so many wonderful female bloggers.
