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

OK, it looks like you posted this way back on the 17th, but for some reason it just showed up today in my RSS feeds, otherwise I would have commented sooner! I like your list and it's a lot like the one I'm working on! I think it should be 30 things to do in your 30's! That way you can make a new list for your 40's. Thanks for the post idea!

I meant to say it was posted the 7th, not the 17th. I'm a dork.
