30 Before 42: The Next Frontier

As promised, here's my newly formed yearly bucket list (is that what we're calling it? I guess so!)

A month has already passed, so I better get moving to get these 30 things accomplished by February 3rd, 2014!!

42? YIKES!

 
 
1.      Watch five Oscar nominated films. (These can be old, new, nominated but didn’t win, nominated buy did win.)
2.      Have one room in our basement finished.
3.      Buy a houseplant and nurture it so that it will live for at least one month. (I’m setting my sights low.)
4.      Try five new restaurants (I like this one so much, I’m doing it again!).
5.      Have a gathering of friends at our house.
6.      Go on a vacation with my mom.
7.      Run a 5K (another one that I’m repeating.)
8.      Play tennis with my husband at least twice.
9.      Go parasailing.
10.  Get together with college friends.
11.  Go through the plastic tubs of photos from my grandparents’ house and scan the ones I want to have copies of.
12.  Create a photo wall of family pics in the front entryway.
13.  Get a hot stone massage.
14.  Take a cooking class.
15.  Finish an entire game of Monopoly.
16.  Get a dog!
17.  Follow through with my cleaning schedule for an entire month.
18.  Exercise enough so that I do not have to take pills for high cholesterol anymore.
19.  Get a Kate Spade bag. (Totally shallow, but at age 41, I deserve a mulligan.)
20.  Go to a professional development event, i.e., ALA.
21.  Try downhill skiing.
22.  Volunteer at my public library.
23.  Go out for tapas.
24.  Put money into savings each month.
25.  Create something either “frameable” or “giftable” using my calligraphic talent.

27.  Join a book club.
28.  Do SOMETHING with my wedding dress.
29.  Revisit crocheting.
30.  Item of my choice – wild card. (Got ideas? Submit away!)
