This blog seems to be very focused on me, which makes me uncomfortable but I guess it would be more awkward for me to be writing about anything else.
I love lists, every night at work during my slow periods I make a detailed to do list for the next day. (somehow a nap usually sneaks onto this list) I like grocery lists, menue lists, chore lists, and lists left by someone special detailing why they love me... So it is no surprise that I enjoyed reading my friends list of 35 things to do before she turned 35. I thought this to be so clever I had begun one of my own but it read "20 Things To-Do While 20"
Even though I love goals I have terrible follow through, so let me be accountable for my list today. This list is in no manner prioritized.
1. Get married- :)
2. Pass the Nclex- wow, I still cannot believe that I did that!
3. Get a hospital job- Sadly no hospital job at this point.
4. Run 1 straight mile- I did it, but honestly I should have shot for a bigger goal.
5. Learn to Surf- I heart surfing.
6. Weigh *** lbs. - sadly my lack of self control is holding me back
7. Go to a foreign country- Jamaica honeymoon.
8. Be a better Christian- I always need to work on this.
9. Show love everyday- I'm sure I failed at this goal.
10. Learn a new craft- I knit.
11. Develop stronger self control- see failed goal #6
12. Decorate my house- this is a never ending goal
13. Graduate nursing school- yes!
14. Buy Ikea couch- I love my Erktop sofa :)
15. Provide good food for my husband- except for the chicken pot pie debacle I think I'm on a winning streak.
16. Have company over- check
17. Be involved in ministry- I love my bus ministry kids, snot and all..
18. Celebrate my marriage daily- uh, potentially a fail. I need to work on this.
19. Enjoy life- :)
20. Make a Martha Stewart recipe- I have a couple under my proverbial belt.
Wow, I'm not the overachiever that my mother used to brag about. My list for this year will follow soon. And since no pictures=no fun I guess this post is just no fun.
Wow! 2 posts in one week. I'm very impressed. Love. Love. your list:) You have inspired me to maybe post my list for this year. I have not been brave enough to post this year's list on my blog-yet. Knitting? Seriously? I can't wait to see! I'm sure you rock at #15 and I love #17. Oh, and I love #5, learning to snowboard with Carl this year is already on my list. Thanks for the inspiration! Miss you!

Have a wonderful time with your family.
btw, it would be awkward if your blog was about someone else. hmmm..although you do brag an awful lot about your husband on here ;)
ReplyDeleteJanie,
ReplyDeleteYou should definitely post your list. It was so inspiring to read yours in the past. I'm sure it is full of fun/adventurous things as well as lofty/noble aspirations. Snowboarding with Carl? I mean come on that is cool.
But for real, you are such an inspiration, keep it up :)
I am enjoying y family immensely
Hey you. I like your blog. In fact, I am in the process of constructing a more interesting blog because of yours. And I will talk about myself a lot as well. So it's ok.
ReplyDeleteKelly, your list was neat! I enjoyed reading it. And by the way, YOU DO NOT need to loose weight! You are a perfect you! =)
