Today I am very thankful for the Big Blue Bus and it's driver - my dear husband Dan! Without him, my commute to work gets even uglier! My normal commute to work (about 25 miles away) starts at 6:25 a.m. when we pull out of the garage in the Big Blue Bus! He drops me at the Outlet Mall (about 2.5 miles from home) at 6:35 a.m. where I catch the FREX (Front Range Express) bus to Denver. About 7:00 a.m. I get off the FREX and wait another 7-8 minutes for the Denver RTD bus that takes me the remaining 1.75 miles to my office. I get there about 7:25 a.m. Then I do the reverse on the way back home, but that takes me even longer, leaving at 4:30 p.m. and arriving home at about 6 p.m.! When Dan is away and I don't have a Big Blue Bus to rely on, I have to wait for the little Castle Rock shuttle... unfortunately that doesn't pick up at my house until 7:25 a.m. and I don't get to work until almost 9 a.m.! Oh the joys of not having a license! Please don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining... I'm thankful I have him to assist me!!! Just consider yourself lucky if you can drive!
Here are another 10 items from my 101 list...- Repaint the inside of my house something other than white
- Celebrate another 20 years of marriage with Dan
- Replace the loft furniture with a sectional
- Get a dresser for my bedroom (haven’t had one in 20 years)
- Replace the carpet throughout the house
- Have my windows cleaned
- Have my daughter cook 2x per week
- Use cloth bags for grocery’s and go green! DONE (and we love it!)
- Re-landscape my front and back yards
- Meet Marlene out of state for a girl’s weekend

Fun list - and I enjoyed reading about your route to work, too!! Great job!
Booger: Glad to hear you are going "green"! It's really not that hard.
I would love to meet you for some fun out of state, but which state would we pick?!
