8. Start making my own bread
9. Become consistent with daily scripture study
10. Throw away at least one item of clothing every month
11. Get off the Internet by 10pm
12. Go to the top of the sears tower
13. Get in shape by working out at least three times a week
14. Learn this song and record it
15. Give service freely- Think of others before myself

17. Ride my bike through the city
18. Attend a food, music, and art festival
19. Make a piece of art for my home
20. Leave my hair color alone
21. Make sure the dishes are done every night before I got to sleep
22. Feed the birds
23. Decorate a cake
I cannot believe neither of you have read Pride and Prejudice. DO IT NOW. It is one of my very favorites. Jane Austen has other good ones, but start with P&P!
ReplyDeleteIt's embarrassing, I know...I've gotten more than halfway through about 4 times, I've just never gotten to the end!
DeletePersuasion is my favorite.
ReplyDeleteHave you tried No-Knead Bread? A fabulous way to check something off your list.
Great goals, great girl! Happy Birthday!

ReplyDeleteHappy birthday, welcome to the Blink 182 "Nobody Likes You When You're 23" Club!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday!!!! Good luck with your list!
ReplyDeleteI love your list! Read a newspaper cover to cover...didn't you get enough of that in 211?? Hahah bad memories of that class.
ReplyDeleteThis is a great idea! I think I am going to follow this plan for my next year. Or start it now. My birthday is right after New Years and birthday goals tend to get lost right along with New Year goals :-P
