100 Things: Update

Trent and I were discussing my 100 Things To Do list the other day, when he brought up number 18, “attend a taping of the Oprah Winfrey show.” I said that obviously that wasn’t going to happen any time soon (as the show is no longer in production) and that I probably missed my window. But, since my list is sort of a “living document,” I was planning on doing the best I could…and would probably count “meeting Oprah” or “attending an event where Oprah is speaking” or whatever blah blah blah Oprah. While I, of course, would like to reach all the goals on my list, I know that some are close to impossible (hello, number 51), but that is the fun of it. And since the list is inherintly mine, I can change or flex or update it as I see fit. That’s one of my favorite things about having a Life List. We all change, so why shouldn’t our list change as well. As I grow and experience more of life, of course what I want to do with it will change! I mean, if I made this list when I was 19, I certainly wouldn’t want it to look exactly the same today (Tatoo, check! Tounge piercing, check! Pass out in the hallway of a fraternity, check check!).

With that in mind, here are a few updates to the list from the last few months:

17. Take photos of someone famous – Yes, I am counting Minnie Mouse. Suck it world, my list. – June 2011

24. Buy a brand new Mac computer – Technically this was a “gift” but since it was from my husband, I’m counting it! – February 2011

69. Have more kids – Two words: Tater Tot. – December 2010

93. Go to therapy – As I’ve said on MANY occassions, being a working mom of two has been an adjustment. So earlier this Spring, I starting seeing someone to help me organize my life/feelings/goals. It has been a godsend, one of my best decisions ever. – April 2011

What will I accomplish next? Skydive (number 5)? Play in a rock band (number 23)? Attend P. Diddy’s white party (number 36)? The possibilities are endless! Yay for Life! And for Lists!
