29 Things

1. I can wiggle my ears.
2. I use to want to be a lawyer.
3. Tulips and hydrangeas are my favorite flowers.
4. I would never see my favorite shows if I didn't have DVR.
5. I eat Moe's all the time. Like one of these days, I'm gonna turn into a burrito bowl!
6. I wish I was one of those people that could wash my hair every other day. I'm jealous of those people!
7. I don't mind doing laundry, or folding clean clothes. However, I fail at putting clean clothes away.
8. I want to become a Mac user but I can't justify that purchase.
9. I want to open my own business.
10. Sometimes I skip dinner and go straight for dessert.
11. I need a hair cut.
12. One day I'm going to take a cake decorating class. Does anyone wanna join me?
13. I love yard sales, estate sales, and the flea market.
14. Twenty One is my favorite number.
15. I miss going dance class.
16. I secretly love staying home on a Friday or Saturday night.
17. I'm going to Virginia this month and Florida next month.
18. My Best Friend's Wedding is my favorite movie. I still own it on VHS.
19. My eyes use to be a true brown. Now they are golden. Kinda weird that they've changed color, if you ask me.
20. I love painting furniture.
21. I love spooning with Bella (the cat).
22. I'm a night owl.
23. I'm going for my first spray tan next month. I'm nervous!
24. I'm in my 10th wedding next month. I have so many cool experiences and unforgettable memories while being a bridesmaid.
25. I have a minor obsession with glassware, especially depression glass. I love buying random plates, serving dishes, etc. I really appreciate vintage glass patterns.
26. Maybe I should write down a bucket list. I know sky diving would be on that list. Got any suggestions?
27. I have a bad habit of not opening emails. I currently have 39 unopened emails in my personal account and ohhh maybe 50 un-open emailed in my work account. Opps! Clearly, I'm not worried, but just to clarify, I do open, read, respond to emails that require attention.
28. My hair color is natural. I can't count the number of times I've been asked who does my low/highlights. No one! There is a lady at work that I've known here for 6 years, and she still doesn't believe me!
29. Today is my 29th birthday!

7 Days Left

I have 7 days left being 28. I am a week away from being 29. Wow that is a big statement but I'm okay with it.

However, I'm going to be brutally honest. I am NOT where I thought I'd be in life at this age. I am 372 days away from being THIRTY. 3-0. Let that sink in for a minute.....There is no one to blame but myself for not being on the path that I thought I would be on. I've done nothing about going to graduate school. I haven't even bought a GRE study book or looked at the test schedule. And I'm not married and I'm okay with that. Is that weird? I can't make a relationship happen out of thin air. I put myself out there and I have to keep faith that the man and I will find each other. Those are just two examples of the many fronts that I want to work on; however, I can't help but feel like I should be moving in those directions faster. Do I contradic myself?

I still have my list of priorites but I am struggling with it. I have picked up knitting again and I'm slowly remembering to make time to just knit (not knit while multi-tasking). I'm not trying to complete the list before 30, but I do feel like I should have a mini list of accomplishments before I enter my next century. What should be on that list? How do you prioritize your list of priorities?

I've sorta lost the point of this post except I have 7 days left being 28 years old.

Are you thirty? Did you have a bucket list before turning thirty?
