It's that time...again. (How does it go so fast?)
Although I didn't finish my last list, I've made a new one. With this new list, comes a new attitude toward it. With my first two lists, I really wanted to finish them...do every single item. Last year, though, I realized that this isn't realistic, nor is it necessary. Sometimes, I don't have the money to do everything. Sometimes I don't have the time. Other times, I don't have anyone to do them with. And sometimes, a months after putting an item on the list, I don't really have the desire or feel the need to do it anymore (or something more interesting...like a trip to New York City...takes its place).
And I'm okay with it. The list isn't a contract, it's inspiration. Ideas meant to keep my life moving.
So here's my new list:
1. Get a henna tattoo
2. Invest in some luggage!
3. Get reusable grocery totes and use them
4. Make a Fantasy Football Team
5. Learn the alphabet backwards
6. Learn the military alphabet (Alpha, Bravo, Charlie, etc.)

8. Finish the 21 day fix
9. Drink from a coconut
10. Paintball

12. Try yoga
13. Donate half of my clothes
14. Register to be a bone marrow donor
15. Make a book of my Instagram photos

17. Update my passport (just in case!)
18. Make crepes
19. Make over my twin chairs (two chairs in my vast collection that have leopard print seats)
20. Read a book by C.S. Lewis (besides the Chronicles of Narnia)
21. Write a blog post every month
