Me at around 1 year! Thankfully I outgrew my cheeks!
I’m celebrating the fact I turn 46 today. Four more years until 50! I don’t have any big plans this year, but have had a week of dinners and lunches with friends. I feel very blessed to have such great friends. It’s always nice to have a birthday week instead of one single day. However, I always seem to enter the month of July one or two pounds heavier.
In past posts I’ve shared how I love making lists. I’ve shared nineteen things I’ve learned in the past decade here. It was supposed to be ten, but I went over. I also posted eight things I’ve learned from drumming here. Today’s list will be a few of the things I’d like to do before I turn 50.
- Make it a habit to meditate daily
- Throw an 80’s theme party
- Be able to do an unsupported headstand
- Simplify and have less paper clutter
- Be a better photographer and know how to use my camera to its fullest potential
- Have a better understanding of social networking
- Enjoy the process
- Be able to Let It Go
- Have a backyard movie night at our farmhouse
- Get paid to blog and work with organizations and businesses that I love
- I want to have read the majority of books that I own.
- Spend several weeks touring Italy.
I keep adding to this list and a few things I listed last year I’m not so sure about anymore. After all, a woman has right to change her mind. Do you make lists? If so what’s on your bucket list?
Happy Birthday Dawn! Find JOY in all that you do today :). Have a great day!
