By the time I'm 30...

I came across a thread a few days ago on a bulletin board I frequent and the title was "By the time I'm 30..." where we were supposed to post our goals or things we'd like to do before we turn 30. I'd never really thought of that, nor have I felt like 30 was a significant enough time in my life to have "done things" by...I figure we live, we die - and as long as we do what we love in between, who cares when or how it gets done, right? Well...here's my list:

  • Have two more children
  • Read the four standard works
  • Have a garden
  • Visit Europe
  • Visit New York
  • Attend a Broadway show
  • Be in a home that can easily store a year’s supply
  • Own a piano
  • Own at least one piece from Christian Dior (other than makeup)
  • Go down two jean sizes
  • Go back to school
  • Decrease my “ecological footprint”
  • Be out of consumer debt

Awsome list! How long do you have until you're 30? If I had two more children by the time I turn 30 I would shoot myself! :) j/k... did I ever respond to your farmer's market question? I just realized I don't think I did! Anywho...I totally thought you were talking about the Nocatee farmer's market, which is only once a month. I didn't know there was one open all the time! Exciting!!!

Rebecca, how old are you? I am just stuck on the two more children before you are 30? Maybe you're pregnant with twins now and we don't even know it. :)

What a list! I actually think mine would be close to that...I will have to write a post :)

I just turned 25 - so I have a good five years to get these things done! ♦

You know, I had a Dior handbag that I gave to Mushbelly. She has made me a couple of bags that I love more. I got rid of all my designer stuff but I still hold on to a couple of Dior pieces. But life is still goes on if you dont ever own it. I let Belen wear my Dior necklace and if it breaks I will be as sad as if she broke a Target one.
