And then there was 26…
11 May
How about that. 26 years old, never thought the day would come… (I kid, I kid )
. Where some would be fearful of growing older – I can’t wait! I love the idea of growing old. It’s like being a kid again, but better – because you’re an adult and can make adult decisions, you’re powerful that way. You’re closer to Heaven – like a kid, but the direction you’re going is shorter in distance. You carry all that you have learned and hope for the best on ‘the other side’. How NEAT!
Cosmetically, yeah – maybe not smooth and polished. Wrinkles and gray hair – maybe I’ll like it – maybe I won’t, but I’m not worried about it. I look at Clark who is about 10 years older than me with a bit more gray hair and wrinkles and I think he just looks SO handsome!
Meow!
Well, it’s about that time to make my goals for my 26th year of life:
- Read more books
- Paint more
- Sketch more
- Be consistent in personal scripture study – once a day
- Be consistent in church participation (Visiting Teaching, Ward Activities, Young Womens, Relief Society, Service Projects, etc)
- Visit the Beach more
- Be consistent in my weight loss
- By the end of my 26th year, have a completely new wardrobe with NO old clothes (i.e. older than 2 years).
I think that’s a good list for my elder years
. I can’t believe I’m closer to THIRTY than I am 20! Wow. I’m an old woman
haha!
Ok, BIRTHDAY LIST time!
Since I could recall even realizing it’s my birthday as a kid – I have always been SO excited for my birthday! I LOVE it!
- Bike (Clark says he’s getting me this, so we can go bike riding along the beach every Saturday. I can’t wait!)
- Gift Card to Target
- Gift Card to Nordstrom Rack
- Gift Card to Amazon.com
- A Baby – (So I heard that if you write down what you want and make goals – they’re more likely to come true. So, why not add this to the list ) .
- Entire series of Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman
- Twilight – New Moon Blu-ray
Ok, another good list made. I commission all my friends, family and Readers to join me in celebration of a new year and growing old with happiness and style! ♥ Loves to everyone!
