I think you have to take go to Oprah Show off the list, too. Unless it now includes her new O Network show?

Can I be one of your 4 friends that goes away with you for a week?

I was thinking about my list the other day, too and how I should revisit it.

Why no Komen events? Personally, I think they are so big now that it is nice to support things that need more supporting/funds. But just wondering why you are now a nonsupporter?

Komen, in a sneaky way, pulled funding from breast health at Planned Parenthood because they provide reproductive care. I'm not ok with taking away funding from an organization that provides fair care for anyone for a political reason.
