I recently read a blog where the woman was talking about one of her checks off a list she titled 30 before 30. I instantly thought that sounded like a fabulous idea, and decided to tackle such a list for myself! Now, I know what ya'll are thinking, 'she's not even 29 yet, and her birthday isn't for 3 months,' but I've decided to make this list with some bigger things on it that could take longer than 1 year. The intent is to revisit this list at the beginning of every month and check off the things I've accomplished. Anyone have a milestone birthday coming up in the next couple months/years, feel free to join me! This could be fun, as well as a little bumpy at times…
- Watch the series Sex & the City in entirety (I've only ever seen a random episode here and there, and the 1st movie!)
- Learn to bake bread
- Stop drinking soda (I had come really close to being able to check this one off, lasting a month, but in the last 2 stressful weeks, I've had 3…..)
- Grow my hair long enough to donate a ponytail
- Finish knitting James' 31st birthday socks (due 3/21/2010!)
- Sew a dress for Hazel
- Have a family photo shoot with Jamie Spiro
- Teach Hazel to play Twinkle Twinkle Little Star on the piano
- (Learn how to & ) knit a hat for myself
- Determine a signature drink that I can order wherever I go, and always have the ingredients for at home
- Make my own pickles
- Have a stocked liquor cabinet, like an adult
- Eat a meal at preservation kitchen
- Find my perfect shade of lipstick
- Actually get the Luther's Rose tattoo I've been dreaming of for 10+ years
- Keep some kind of lovely plant alive in my house or on my porch
- Go on a cycling/camping trip with James and Hazel
- Eat a meal at poppy.seattle
- Sing at church
- Ride my bike to the grocery store
- Take a theo chocolate factory tour
- Reduce (or eliminate) use of plastic bags from the stores
- Get my makeup done at a department store counter
- Make something fabulous out of anna maria horner's fabric
- Find a perfect skin care routine
- Finish knitting the paron tunic for myself
- Develop a regular yoga routine
- Write a song for Hazel
- Drink more water every day
- Learn to make phad thai from scratch

I have been thinking about a list like this too! I am the same amount away from 30 that you are. Ok, this weekend, writing my list! might end up stealing some of yours!

I love this - Much more than a bucket list. This holds you accountable to a shorter deadline so as NOT to continue putting it off. :)
I love the signature drink idea!! And if you need a hand with the SATC, I'd be more than happy to have a "viewing party"...I own them all.
