I read about this idea in someone else’s blog.  I thought it was clever but then I googled it and found it’s kind of cliche maybe.   I still want to make a list to cross out  over the next 12 months.  It may take a while to compile though but I am making myself have to have it all written down by next week.  I want it to be honest and challenging but also attainable.  Also I have to want to do it- example:  I saw “get a tatoo” on a few of them but I don’t want one. I doubt many things will be “biggies” (though my husband might think a vasectomy reversal and another child is a good idea, I do not!) and some may be downright fluffy, but that’s okay.   There is no particular order to it either.

1.  train for and run a road race again and not worry if it’s slower than my old times (sept 21!)

(it’s been 5 years).   After that, run a 10k under 40 and go from there…..

2. get a mammogram

3. go away with my husband without children (even a weekend counts)

4. wash my car My husband did it for me, does this count? Perhaps not.  There are 12 months less two days left in my year so I should probably do this again.

5. take the time to learn how to do things at wordpress

6. swim two lengths of the pool at our local community centre (this will involve some lessons)

7. form a female friendship (I’m not good at this being the introvert/loner that I am, yet I am feeling a void there as I get older and have things I want to discuss with someone my own age)

8. wear high heels

9. full time work for this year (no TOC-ing!!!) Done- the day before my birthday I got a new job

10. get finances organized (may happen yet-see number 9)

11. begin working on coaching levels for track and field

12. believe in myself

13. Visit a new a new place (in July we did take the kids to SF but I guess that won’t count)  We are planning NY for 2010 so 2009 will have to be a little more economical.

14. super fast Grouse Grind

15. take a course (towards  my TL cert?)

16. get a new camera and learn to use it

17. coach XC

18. work on coaching levels for track and field

19. go on dates with hubby
