Checking things off my list!

I am proud to say that I was able to check the first item of my list of 13.5 things to do in a 1/2 year! I finally got our plane tickets to Denver booked. Woohoo for checking something off my list!!

I’ve also started reading my D40 manual. I was reading all about flash settings and how to adjust the intensity because my food pictures are starting to hurt due to the shorter days. It gets dark here around 4:30ish. A couple of these things require help or cooperation from other people, specifically #2 and 3. So watch out for some serious re-dedication to the cause. Now that these things are on my list, they’re going to happen. That’s the magic of list making!

1 Order Denver trip plane tix by 12/31 (finished 12/20)
2 Order Europe trip plane tix
3 Start kitchen remodel
4 Make creme brulee
5 Work out 3x/wk for 6 wks (one / two / three / four / five / six)
6 Eat no french fries for a month (and I LOVE french fries)
7 Read my D40 manual, and start applying what I’m learning from it – started
8 Finish the major craft project I started 2 years ago
9 Go to a dr about my wrist
10 Send baked goods to family/friends (at least 3 times)
11 Read 1 book/month (Jan / Feb / Mar / Apr / May / June)
12 Learn to ski
13 Plan/Host a girls night (in or out)
13.5 Send at least 5 birthday cards (one / two / three / four / five)

    I so love lists… to the point where it’s an addiction. Something about the satisfaction of completing things on it and crossing it out. 🙂 Great list and happy half birthday!! 🙂
