I’ve been thinking lately about things I want to do – I’m a goal person so setting a goal and working to achieve it is critical for me… There are so many things I want to do and I have just over a year to complete the following:
italics=in progress
crossed out = complete
- Compete in (and complete) a Half-Ironman – slated for April 17 2011
- Finish my professional designation as a CPCU (chartered property and casualty underwriter)
- Grow a garden…successfully
- Put together a cookbook of all my mom, grandmother, and aunts recipes for my family (if you are interested in this – visit tastebook – it’s a GREAT site) Started July 6 – hoping to distribute the cookbooks to family for christmas 2010
- Run a half marathon (technically this would be completed during the half ironman) – slated for April 17 2011 but possibly September 26 2010
- Run a marathon (or run/walk…let’s not kid ourselves) – probably not going to happen
- Attend the Superbowl in Dallas in 2011
- Feel good in a bathing suit – I felt good for the first time in a bathing suit summer 2010
- Pay off my debt by 50%
- Become a vegetarian (just for a week)
- Skydive…again… I’ve been once.. it was actually BK and I’s secondish date.
- Start my MBA
- Recycle on a regular basis
- Take and become CPR certified
- Be a brunette – for at least six weeks between hair appointments.. I’m a blonde; always have been
- Grow my hair and then cut it for “Locks of Love” – it’s longer now than it has ever been and I’ll be honest I have a fear of cutting it now.
- The 30 day shred AND P90X (I’m looking to get more tone so I can achieve #8) Update: 30 day shred began 4.26.10
- Be ok with being 30….. YIKES!
- Start a non profit in honor BFF – or raise an insane amount of money for the LiveStrong challenge this year – my goal for our team $10K
- Watch the StarWars movies … I’ve only seen one
- Re-read Gone with The Wind…I cheated in H.S. and read the first part then watched the movie…I’ve always regretted it.
- Use my passport…. it’s never been used, sad I know. The two times I’ve left the country were before you needed passports, Mexico and Canada which really…does that count anyway? slated for Mexico July 2010
- Quit smoking … I’m highly the “social” smoker as every non-smoker smoker will tell you. But I want to quit for good… to the point of not even having one when I’m drinking, stressing, or socializing
- Join a volunteer organization… there are so many children’s hospitals in Dallas I want to begin volunteering at; as well as many other organizations.
- Raise enough money for LiveStrong Challenge that I get to ride my bike with Lance Armstrong (see #19)
- Figure out how to be OK with turning 30 it’s not the end of the world
- Become a certified spin instructor (and being teaching spin classes)
- Buy a custom suit… included jacket, vest, pants and skirt (a power suit if you will)
- Own a pair of expensive shoes…manolo’s, jimmy choo, etc to go with my suit
- Enjoy being 30 – it isn’t the end of the world
What is your list?
Omg…the ones about turning 30…yeah, I can totally relate.
Good idea about the list…I may have to steal this one for my blog
being that I turn 30 May 1st, I better not make a list. The chances of completing it are slim. However, I totally have #5 done 7 times over! haha.
I made a list! Check it out
