Look what I just pulled out of my garden!
My cherry tomatoes have been more than successful. Still waiting on some heirlooms to ripen. Zucchini is going gang-busters still. I’m planning on making some zucchini-chocolate chip muffins once the next batch is a bit larger, maybe this weekend they will be ready.
Well, in the spirit of new years resolutions and overall life achievements I have decided to actually write down 30 things I want to accomplish by the time I’m thirty. I’m giving myself 6 1/2 years become some are pretty ambitious and time consuming, and I’m a pretty busy gal. Here they are.
- Read every work of fiction that has won the Pulitzer Prize
- Run a marathon
- Go to Europe
- Pay off student loans
- Learn to speak another language – enough to hold a basic conversation with a native speaker
- Have a poem published
- Drink a REALLY expensive bottle of wine to see if its worth it
- “Finish” our house projects (is it ever really done though?)
- Plant Dahlias and get them to grow/bloom
- Read the bible
- Finish a crossword puzzle on my own – on a hard day
- Have a well trained dog (please, oh please)
- Take a train
- Learn to surf
- Find my signature drink that makes me look cool/sophisticated/classy
- Learn to snowboard
- Learn to confidently drive a car with a manual transmission
- Splurge on an expensive piece of jewelry for myself
- Camp in a yurt
- Go to Hawaii
- Make a quilt for someone
- Grow a vegetable garden
- Re-learn how to play the piano
- Go to an NCAA basketball tournament game
- Make a good profit selling our first house
- Own real furniture (as in furniture not from Ikea)
- Upgrade to a king size bed (I like my space)
- Go to South American (lots of travel, I know)
- See a great concert in awesome seats
- Host Thanksgiving dinner for all our family
Just a few things to do. I know that if you write all these things down you are 100x more likely to accomplish them, so there we go.
