As soon as I receive my W-2s from Radioshack and UPS... I'm on it!

55. Learn how to drive a stick shift
Done! Last Sunday Laura taught Ariel and I how in a parking lot in Radcliff. It wasn't too difficult to learn, and soon I went on the road and drove for about fifteen minutes. I only stalled out once at a light, haha. It was fun. I'm so glad she finally taught me, I've been wanting to learn this skill for months. I'm sure if I travel a lot it will come in handy. Laura said that she'll let us practice with her car sometime.

84. Have my upper lip, eyebrows, and legs waxed, and my teeth whitened.
Two weeks ago I went with Lauren to Scissorhands on Bardstown. I got my upper lip and eyebrows waxed. It wasn't too painful, and not very expensive either.

95. Register to vote
I picked up a form from the library. Next, fill it out and mail it.

97. Volunteer with Habitat for Humanity.
All I have to do is contact Susan. I can do this soon, I have plenty of free time. Anyone interested in doing this with me?
