"Too much of anything is bad, but too much Champagne is just right." (F. Scott Fitzgerald)
This is a start to a great year, the year Wes & I are getting married!!!!
This time of year when you make Resolutions, I am going to admit that I am horrible at making New Year's Resolutions as I normally break them a few days into the year. My sister at Christmas sent me a newspaper clipping from a few years ago that she had kept for me. It is a list of 30 fun things to do before you turn 30. Some I have accomplished and others I strive to do hopefully before I am 30. I have a little bit of time but cannot procrastinate!
1. Travel abroad alone
2. Drink a champagne cocktail in a Paris bar (check)
3. Find your own primary physician
4. Start a 401(k)
5. Make a proper cosmo (check)
6. Run a marathon
7. Forgive someone who has wronged you
8. Apologize to someone who you've wronged (check)
9. Blow your annual bonus on a pair of Jimmy Choo shoes
10. Master cooking one impressive meal (check)
11. Be a mentor
12. Save a sizable emergency fund
13. Get published (and not on your own or your friends' blog)
14. Learn to change a flat tire
15. Buy an original piece of art
16. Volunteer at a soup kitchen - more than once
17. Take a nighttime helicopter ride
18. Shop at an exclusive boutique without being intimidated (check)
19. Live alone (check)
20. Find a signature scent (check)
21. Divorce toxic friends (check)
22. Ask for a raise
23. Learn to salsa dance
24. Wear sunscreen daily
25. Buy a knock'em dead designer cocktail dress and wear it to your high school reunion
26. Drive leisurely across the country
27. Establish a routine to pray, reflect or meditate
28. Read a compilation of essays called: "The May Queen: Women on Life, Love, Work, and Pulling it all together in your 30s"
