That's my list for now. I'm sure I've missed quite a few things. I'm also sure that it'll change from day to day and from year to year. The most important thing I've realized in making this list is that the "finer things" are not necessarily things, but have more to do with relationships and opportunities and time well-spent. So, in the spirit of living life to its fullest, I am setting forth with new resolve - to make the most of each moment, to enjoy and appreciate the woman that God has made me to be and to indulge in all of The Finer Things In Life.
