30 Things Before 30

I have been inspired to finally write this list.  I have just over a year to tick them off, as my reward if I complete it I will give myself that Skydive I have always wanted to do for my 30th Birthday.  It's nothing spectacular but simply a list of things that I want to achieve for myself, some things I've never done, some are things I keep putting off, or things I tell myself I don't have time for, some I stole from a friend, but they were just so good that I had to....So here goes:

1. Learn to ride a motorbike again.
2. Run a 10km fun-run
3. Finish my right sleeve.
4. Keep a blog going.
5. Full splits on at least one side.
6. Learn to knit.
7. Attend a charity ball.
8. Have a professional make-up lesson.
9. Full spa treatment, the works from top to toe.
10. Buy myself a diamond. (even if only a teeny tiny little one)
11. Kiss a stranger.
12. Get a pushbike and ride with the kids.
13. Learn to just breathe and let go of things that I can not change.
14. Spend an afternoon just trying on pretty dresses for the sake of it.
15. Go to a gold-class cinema screening.
16. Play a sport I love again.
17. Make a 30 before 30 playlist, a soundtrack to this year...
18. Do some volunteer work.
19. Take the kids to the beach for a weekend away.
20. Write a Will.
21. Get Life Insurance.
22. Have a full medical checkup.
23. Learn to make sushi.
24. Hit my Handspring 99% of the time instead of around 50%.
25. Frock up and attend a race meeting.
26. Go Bowling
27. Ride in a Limo
28. Paint the bedrooms.
29. Dance in the rain at last once.
30. Learn to believe that I deserve the best, that I do not have to settle for anything less....

Lets see where this list takes me.

I can do this.....

So, it's been quite a while since I created this blog and then did nothing with it.  But an old friend has inspired me to really do this, to write, maybe not every day, but regularly.  I will write about something, or nothing, depending on what kind of day it is, I will make the time to do something I love just for myself because I deserve it.  And if nobody but me ever reads it then so what, they may just be missing out on something amazing....
