Alright, so two years ago, I made a life list. It was Ellen's thing for awhile on her show, and I decided to do one. I made one and put it on my journal for the new year.
So, I thought I would revisit it, to see just how well my life list is going. I'll cross out the ones I've accomplished. I'm going to add more goals, because, well, if you do everything you want to do without making new goals, then what's the point?
My Life List
- Become a (good) public school teacher
- Be successful
- Be physically fit/stay in good shape (Specifically, lose 10-15 lbs)
- Run a half marathon
- Meet Ed Robertson
- Meet BNL
- Meet Hugh Laurie
- Meet someone famous (Does Mickey Mouse count?)
- Sing in front of a huge crowd of people
- Perform onstage in a semi professional show
- Perform the lead in Peter Pan
- Get over one of my many fears
- Have more patience
- Write a successful children’s book
- Get married to a loving, supporting man (Yay!)
- Own a house (So much to be done...)

- Be a good mom
- Learn how to do a back flip
- Have more confidence in myself
- Have a six pack stomach
- Learn to like more fruits and vegatables (don't quote me on this one please)

- Have healthy children
- Live happy and comfortable
- Pay off all my debts (besides my college loan, which is a life sentence...)

- Not let things bother me as much as they do
- Be less serious/take it as much as I give it

- Travel to at least one state on the West Coast
Alright, and for some new ones....
- Get a better paying job
- Learn how to do things around the house (simple repairs, etc)
- Run a 5K (I debate about doing this all the time. I don't know if I'll ever do it)
- Finish my cross stitch
- Be a good wife
- Be a good neighbor
- Be a good friend
- Have all the moving boxes put away/get the house organized
- Get a better camera with my own money, not a tax return
- Get a birdie while golfing
- Have purple hair. Even if it's just a highlight. I just need to do it once, to get it out of my system.
- Get more energy, stop being lazy
So, there it is. My list. New and old.
I hope everyone has a safe and Happy New Year!
