Thirty before 30
April 3, 2008 – 12:43 amGot this from Miss She Likes Purple. My birthday is in 21 days and then, I’ll be in my late twenties and three years away from thirty. Here is a short and reasonable list of things I would like to get done, see happen or achieve before I blow out those fateful candles.
1. Reach and maintain my personal goal weight
2. Clean up my credit and live within my (our) means
3. Learn and master as much of my chosen career as possible
4. Buy a house
5. Buy a Nikon camera
6. Take photography classes
7. Get a (shelter) dog
8. Put together my own scrapbook
9. Go to Hawaii with my husband
10. Meet Mike’s relatives in California and North Dakota
11. Spend a weekend with my work email buddy, sipping wine and having plenty of good laughs
12. Go to Vegas as a legal adult
13. Learn to let some things go
14. Stop criticizing myself so much

16. Maintain a more organized house
17. Continue to grow my recipe collection
18. Keep my hens and chicks collection growing

20. Get a cholesterol test. It’s been too long.
21. Go on a weekend trip with Sarah and Vanessa, if I can pull them away from their families for that long.
22. Pay off our debts and feel more secure about our finances.
23. Write my novel. Seriously.
24. Clean out my wardrobe of anything I haven’t worn in the last year. What’s the point in keeping it?

26. Read more books.
27. Stay in better contact with my long distance friends.
28. Become the kind of person that people want to know.
