23 things

Sorry it has been so long.  My next DC trip is fast approaching so work is beyond stressful.  I happened to come across a fun idea and wanted to share.  I read a blog called Jana Laurene and she posted about a list of 22 things that she wanted to do before she turned 23.  Well folks this little red headed chica is going to be 24 in 15 days.  WOW!  Where does the time go.  I am getting to the age that I never thought about getting to. The age that is so far into the future that you don't think about.  Some of you will know what I am talking about. I am getting old.  I have decided to make a list of my own, even though I honestly do not have that much time to do things.  I came up with this list about a week ago and have had to change some things due to only having 15 days.
Here is the list-
1. sew something
2. buy a new redskins sweater
3. give ali her overdue birthday gift
4. go to general conference (i am ecstatic about this! it is one of my favorite things to do)
5. lose 2 pounds
6. go to ikea
7. make something delicious in my crock pot
8. go on a movie date with devin/use the cool new drink mixing machine
9.write at least 2 letters to jillian
10. send haley a beautiful birthday card
11. de-clutter the apartment
12. go to the temple
13. get my hair cut
14. go to the dealership to look at my dream vehicle (just for fun)
15. enjoy annie's chocolate ganache cake for my birthday
16. have a special fast about general conference
17. finish watching the star wars movies with devin (we only have #6 left)
18. finish the particular sadness of lemon cake (the book i am currently reading)
19. spend some much needed time with the petersens
20. eat a homemade blt
21. find/see tulips
22. spend some quiet time in gratitude to the one who has given me everything
23. remind those i love the most
Stay tuned to see how I do on my list!

Oh sweetheart, 24 is not old! I am almost 30 (in 1 1/2 years) and NO ONE ever thinks about when they will be that old. I hope you have a good birthday. And good luck on your list!
