My Next 30 Years.

I have been talking about this for a while and it finally happened people as of this past Saturday September 15th I turned 30 and I am not going to spend this entire post talking about all the awesome things I have done in my 30 years, (partially because I did that in a post last year.) I want to spend this post talking about some of my hopes and dreams for the next 30 years. So here goes.

In the next 10 years I hope to:
  1.  Start a family with my husband.
  2. Buy another house, especially now that we really know what we want in a house.
  3. Take part in another triathlon (without getting a concussion and forgetting the whole thing... because that happened.)
  4. To finally visit a Caribbean island.
  5. To cook a souffle perfectly.
  6. Feel confident that I can actually work my alarm clock without screwing it up.
  7. Go to a NFL game. I would obviously prefer a pilgrimage to Lambeau but  I am not picky, as long as the Redskins are not playing.
In the next 20 years I hope to:
  1. Work for myself... if I haven't won the lottery yet.
  2. Have a extensive collection of seasonal bathroom accessoriies. (Christmas, Easter, St. Patrick Day etc.)
  3. Blog as often as I should
  4. Write a book. Even if nobody ever reads it I want to be able to say that I did it.
  5. Consider myself a decent housewife, like the kind of wife that actually cooks and cleans daily.
  6. Become the kind of person that wears heels regularly.

In the next 30 years I hope to:
  1. Retire
  2. Spend my days studying wines and culture around the country.
  3. Actually complete a scrapbook. ( I have started 7 and completed 0)
In the everlasting words of Tim McGraw... "Drink a little lemonade and not so many beers, Maybe I'll remember my next 30 years."
Me 30 Years Old with a Lamb.... Forshadowing?


I think I’ll take a moment, celebrate my age
The ending of an era and the turning of a page
Now it’s time to focus in on where I go from here
Lord have mercy on my next thirty years

Hey my next thirty years I’m gonna have some fun
Try to forget about all the crazy things I’ve done
Maybe now I’ve conquered all my adolescent fears
And I’ll do it better in my next thirty years

My next thirty years I’m gonna settle all the scores
Cry a little less, laugh a little more
Find a world of happiness without the hate and fear
Figure out just what I’m doing here
In my next thirty years

Oh my next thirty years, I’m gonna watch my weight
Eat a few more salads and not stay up so late
Drink a little lemonade and not so many beers
Maybe I’ll remember my next thirty years

My next thirty years will be the best years of my life
Raise a little family and hang out with my wife
Spend precious moments with the ones that I hold dear
Make up for lost time here ,In my next thirty years

In my next thirty years

  1. We should really get on those scrapbooks! Maybe then start our own businesses? Heels are overrated. Seasonal bathroom decor (cracked me up) we could make and I always have wine :) Love you ma!

  2. LOVE the pic of you with a Lamb! :D
    Also -- I can teach you to wear heels daily. Stick with me my friend, we'll own our own cupcake/decor/event/craft business before you know it.
    ;)
