Even though I turned 29 last April (again, ahem), I thought I would get a list together of my "40 before 40" ... things I'd like to check off my list. As I've been thinking about 4o things I'd like to do, I realized that I do a lot of things every day. And rather than overburden my life even more, maybe I'll just make a list of things that come to the top of my mind. I may add to this as I go along, but really, these are some tiny dreams of mine that are good to have a deadline attached ... if only to make sure I do them. In keeping with my theme of SIMPLIFY in 2010, I really don't want to make things harder on myself.
In no particular order ... and not really sure if I'll even get to 40.
