My "30 before 30" List

I have 20 months/88 weeks/617 days to accomplish all of these things. Obviously, some will take longer than others, so I will do my very best. p.s., they might not be done in this particular order...

1. become a mommy
2. make a budget
3. USE the budget.
4. complete Dave Ramsey's "7 baby steps"
5. do 20 things that I have never done or just haven't done in years (things not on this list that I might not think about until they present themselves...)
6. edit & self publish the novel I wrote about 3 years ago...I've been told it's good.
7. write/edit/publish the novel that I started a couple months ago...I think it's going to be great.
8. stop eating fast food (unless it is the absolute ONLY option)
9. lose 30 lbs
10. stop drinking sodas
11. read the entire Bible. I started this one years ago and got about 1/3 through it.
12. keep a prayer journal. It's fun to see how God answers them. And, I tend to forget things that need prayer sometimes :/
13. create 1 new piece of art each week.
14. trade in our 2-1-0 house for a 3-2-2...as soon as possible.
15. rediscover my childhood enjoyment for running. Do it often.
16. visit a winery
17. visit the ocean. Last (and only) visit was when I was 13.
18. ride a ferris wheel...don't have any memory of doing this. ever.
19. relearn French.
20. get rid of all the unnecessary stuff in our house. keep it clutter free.
21. read at least 50 books. a few I haven't read in years, most that I've never read at all.
22. grow a garden
23. find a new church home. One that David and I pick TOGETHER.
24. be a regular volunteer.
25. tithe 10% without hesitation.
26. take more road trips.
27. dance in the rain
28. build a great snowman (hopefully we'll get another blizzard...)
29. complete the Interior Decorator course I signed up for months ago...
30. live everyday fully. there are so many that don't have the ability to do so.

...I better get busy!
