Life List

You may wonder about the life list thing. It all started with Ellen this past year. She had people on her show that had created their life list of things they hope to accomplish in their life. I had been putting off creating mine until I had 'the time' to do it up right. Heck with that. I figured I could start on my BLOG, then I would see it everytime I logged in. So you may wonder, how am I doing?
First I did start on reconnecting with some people I haven't been in contact with for awhile. I must say that went well. I emailed several people I hadn't talked with for awhile. I'm happy to say I got back responses, so now I must work on maintaining those relationships. I feel it is so important to stay connected to those that have been close to us in the past. With all the modern technology, it really is easy and I have no excuse not to.
Next, I have begun my journey on living a healthier life style. You will notice that I did not say diet and exercise. How many times in the past have I vowed to do that and only to fail. It sounds so much more positive to say that I plan to live a healthier life style. It seems that those words stick with me and I am able to begin that task. Last week when I was at the mall with Mark and Shantel, we decided to get something to eat. There are many delicious choices like pizza, pasta, mexican and oriental. I am proud to say that I chose the the new food place, a salad and wrap place. I had a delicious salad and was very satisfied. Also, when we went to the movie afterwards, I did not have popcorn or a treat. By the way, we saw Premonition. It was an okay movie, it just lack some consistancy between the dreams or premonitions and how it played out. Sandra Bullock did a great job acting. There is something special about seeing a movie at the theater, although it's no longer a 'cheap date'.

Well, that's about all I've accomplished so far on my life list, but be sure to check back. I will be adding to my list and try to update my blog on how I am doing. High on my list is to get our bedroom painted. Have had the paint and bed set since before Mark and I got married. Now have material for the curtains and curtain rods. Yeah, gotta get taht done soon! Hey, how about you...Have you made your life list yet?
