I’m trying to have a little fun here. My Mom told the story of Mrs. Kelley who was in her nineties. She died while hanging her clothes out on the line. This was one of her favorite things to do. I am challenging myself to think of 100 ways to die doing what you love rather than lying in bed waiting to go. Although, we may not have that luxury of choice we can hope and dream. Please send me ideas and I’ll add them to my list! Pictures, too, if you have them!\u00c2\u00a0 Thank you, Thank you to everyone for your support and ideas!<\/p>\n
