Welcome to my blog - the place where I will document my life. Is my life exciting...probably not, but the last two years have been very exciting to me, so I thought I'd share it. The last two years, I got engaged, moved to Edmonton, got a dog, started a career with the government, got married, bought a new house and had a beautiful baby girl.
So now that I am 363 days from 30, I wanted to document my daily life as a stay-at-home mom and accomplishing 30 things before I am 30. I have really been trying to think of what the 30 things I would like to do. It has taken me three days to think about them all. And while the list is just preliminary, I may change or alter a bit, the list is based on making my home life, personal and relationships more fruitful, joyful and happy. The list is also a challenge to post something everyday, similar to the notion of project 365 that I have seen people do before.
So my 30 things:
1) Finish wedding and honeymoon scrapbook
2) Start and finish 30 day shred in 30 days
3) Take a photo a day.
4) Send a card a week to a friend
5) Start and finish renovations
6) Plan first family vacation
7) Create and stay on budget
8) Learn a new recipe
9) Eat dinner at home six nights per week
10) Make meals to freeze and cook during the week
11) Bake muffins once a week
12) Live and clean greener
13) Purchase more local goods
14) Learn to sew
15) Gift handmade gifts
16) Become more crafty
17) Decorate by crafts
18) Reflect daily for thanks, happiness, love
19) Shop smarter
20) Read one book a month
21) Eat 8 servings of vegetables
22) Drink 2 brita pitchers before drinking other beverages
23) Eat cleaner
24) Look for the positives in every day and every situation
25) Run 5 k race
26) Learn to make jewelery
27) Learn to make moccasins
28) Learn one new scrapbook technique per month
29) Take time for myself, just to relax. No errands, no running around, no shopping, just relaxing.
