Hello There!
Welcome to my blog. As the title states, this blog is about my 52 firsts. I plan, for the next year, to try 52 things I have never done before. Each week I will do on one item on the list and blog about the experience I have. Some tasks will be a challenge and some will be easy, but I hope to learn something from them and have some fun along the way! So for starters this is the list of "firsts" I hope to complete over the next year.
