30 Things to do Before I Die

I tried to post this one before I turned 30, but I could not think of 30 things for my list. Any suggestions to help me finish? Should I do 30 Things Before I Die or 30 Thing in my 30s?

I am turning 30 in 10 days. I thought I would dread it. But I think I had my difficult birthday at 26. That was the one where I cried on the stairs and insisted that I did not want to go out to dinner. Thanks to Adrienne and Tracy for taking me anyway!



I am happy where I am in my life. It is not quite where I thought I would be, but I am not really the one in control here.



Anyway, I thought I would make a list of 30 things I want to do in my life:



Here they are, in no particular order:

1. buy a house

2. get married

3. be a mom

4. complete a marathon

5. go to Hawaii

6. go to Europe

7. publish a children's book

8. volunteer regularly at an animal shelter or retirement home

9. win the lottery

10. make a difference in the lives of others ( I am hoping I do this daily, but I am still waiting to hear back)

11. do something really helpful and wonderful for my parents

12. stay clean and organized (look, I need a bigger closet)

13. maintain friendships with the wonderful friends I have in my life now

14. think of 16 other things to put on my list
