A few weeks ago Sian posted her list of 49 Things to Do list for the blog Cos You Want To Club. I have a list and will be sharing it in the future. Sian's whole thing is that we have a post just waiting for a day when we need something for the blog. But, I can post her list and share what I have done from hers. Rinda did and I think a common list makes it so much more fun.

Here it is, then...
