HERE WE GO... The List

So we're about 4 days from the launch of project My365-35. This project will be my year long list of things I want to tackle and accomplish in the 365 days before my 35th bithday.  Its a long one but I think all the things on here I can absolutely accomplish.  Its not going to be easy by any stretch of the imagination but I'm ready to make this happen.  

So here is the list:

  1. Lose 95 pounds (its true)
  2. Join the gym and go continuously 
  3. Road trip with my kids thru, at least, three states
  4. See the California Redwood forest
  5. Get promoted
  6. Go to at least 10 Angels games
  7. See at least 2 USC football games
  8. Attend at least 3 concerts
  9. Join a women's soccer team and play for a season
  10. Wear my cheerleading uniform again (hey its 17 years old but I want to put it on again and fit into it!)
  11. Start a committee for my 20 year class reunion
  12. Reseve a trip to El Salvador for myself and the kids
  13. Make myself a new Venitian Dress
  14. Make myself all new underpinnings
  15. Organize ALL my shit (in stages of course but ALL the SHIT)
  16. Change out my wardrobe (This reflects back to #1)
  17. Attend Marti Gras (This will be a tough one as its only about 6 months away)
  18. Learn to belly dance and actually do it
  19. Go to Disney World
  20. Pay off my CC fully
So that's it! My list for the next 365 days! This will mostly be documented with photo maybe some video but I'm hoping this project inspires others to stop being complaicent with life and actually go out there. Maybe I'm not jumping out of planes or running with bulls but I am settin the bar high for myself and I plan to go above it!

My 365 starts next week!

I turn 34 on the 30th of this month. I have a year before I get to year 35, which for some reason in my head is significant.  I hate when people tell you, "what's the deal with your made up time table life is life just flow with it." Well frankly that hasn't worked for me so far.  So far just flowing with it has me on a muscle relaxer 3x a day an analgesic 1x a day and water pills.  How's that for life? Its not.  I love and respect my maternal unit but I didn't and don't want to suffer from the same aliments she does. I want to be better! And frankly I think she wants me to be better also.

SO as I come close to 34 I realize the advice that I give to others I need to follow myself.  

BE THE MASTER OF YOUR OWN DESTINY

Well OK then.  It starts Friday.  From Friday I have given myself 1 year, 365 days to change, adjust, achieve and do things that I need to do and want to do to get me to my 35th year. I'm compiling a list of things I would like to do, places I want to go, goals I want to reach, and events I want to attend. My goal is to photograph, document and share the next year with anyone who wants to look into it. 

So lets go lets take a ride, 365!
