For my half birthday, I wanted to follow up and see where I’m at with my 30 before 30 list so far.
- Travel somewhere I’ve never been. Yup! We took our honeymoon in June and I can check 4 more states off! We visited Utah, Wyoming, Idaho, and Montana.
- Close on our first house. Check! We closed at the end of April and it really is a dream come true.
- Furnish our house. We’re almost there. Considering we came from a furnished apartment and were starting with nothing I’m pretty impressed with where we’re at.
- And decorate the house. Another work in progress. Definitely need to finish building some furniture first then we can really focus on decor.
- Host Thanksgiving. That’s the plan!
- Get a keratin treatment. Done! Definitely helped tame some frizz this summer.
- Volunteer. Unfortunately not yet – need to get more involved and make this a focus.
- Run (Walk?) a 5k. We just started ‘training’ (walking) to do a 5k hopefully soon.
- Learn something new (take a class). I’ve been slowly teaching myself how to use photoshop
- 30 days of no soda. Check! 30 days and still counting
- 30 days of no alcohol.
- 30 days of no shopping.
- 30 days of eating at home and packing lunches for work.
- Start blogging consistently. Hello #blogtober (If you haven’t caught on, I’m attempting to blog daily for the month of October)
- Try a new workout class.
- Clean out my closet.
- Try 10 new recipes.
- Find my ‘signature dish’
- Visit Lion Country Safari and feed the giraffes.
- Change my name on everything. I’d like to think this is done but I’m sure something else I don’t realize exists will come up.
- Find systems to organize my life.
- Print & frame wedding pictures and pick out our wedding album.
- Schedule car, dentist, and doctor appointments like a real adult. I have caught up on all the doctors appointments. Now just to get an oil change….
- Celebrate our one year anniversary. How is it already our anniversary month??
- Workout consistently. ha
- Share more on instagram stories and become more comfortable on video.
- Girls getaway weekend.
- Date night atleast once a month. Doin’ it!
- Squeeze in as much family time as possible.
- Find my real passions.
Definitely have some work to do over the next 6 months before the big 3-0. But its also fun to look back and see how many of my goals I’ve actually accomplished over the last 6 months!
